Ideas For Songs/chants

New York, New York should absolutely be the pregame or postgame song. Yankee Stadium plays it at the end of soccer games now just like Yankees games, so I'm guessing they/the club will still want that.

Do You Hear The People Sing was picking up steam on the reddit page... I downloaded it and I think it would be incredible to sing as teams walk into the stadium.

 
I'm actually digging the do you hear the people sing!
It's something that can be sung by normal fans as well, eAsy to sing along to.

Agreed. Americans don't sing really in sports, so it wouldnt be right away, but I think its catchy, meaningful, and could become enough of a tradition that all 20,000 people are singing. It's by far the song that has gotten me most excited. My brain is already convinced it's "our" song and its stuck in my head.
 
City till I die,
I'm City till I die,
I know I am I'm sure I am,
I'm City till i die...
 
To the Beatles Hey Jude

La, la, la lalalaaaa.... City,
La, la, la lalalaaaa.... City,
La, la, la lalalaaaa.... City,
La, la, la lalalaaaa.... City,
La, la, la lalalaaaa.... City...

Personally I don't mind borrowing SOME chants from MCFC but there has been a majority of supporters against it.

You could change city to Hey Blues too. I'm not sure how MCFC chant goes so I don't know if thats copying them too
 
Yeah they do that same chant too.
Lots of MCFC supporters here and even they're on board with us creating our own identity.
I'm sure we will borrow some though. I would love to chant that one. It's one of my favorites, simple but sounds awesome when sung.

as a MCFC fan no blue moon pls. The newer version they've had for the past like 10 years is corny.

I love Les Mis! How about we just sing the entire soundtrack, I'd be happy with that. "One Day More" is pretty epic as well although it might be harder to shoehorn NYCFC lyrics in.
 
True, but as far as I am aware, the city hasn't seceded from the state yet? Well anyway, you guys can feel free to modify it as much as you want anyhow, since I will unfortunately not be around to sing it myself.
song isnt nys of mind its new york state of mind, referencing the city, being a NY'r creates a certain state of mind not about the state of NY
 
As a Brooklyn Native and having playing in the Olympic Development Program and 4 years in college, people fear the hardened New Yorkers on and off the pitch. NYC has one of the most distinguishable cultures not only stateside but globally. We're not Beatles singing brits, I strongly encourage what ever culture is around this team, that it embraces the bad ass, taking no shit from noone attitude of NYC culture. We need to make the Seattle fans look weak in comparison.

they can do that without us
 
I posted this in the other song thread, but this came to mind after listening to some Dropkick Murphys:

"For City"

starts out with "Let's go, City!" chant & clapping
For City, for City,
we sing our proud refrain
for City, for City
'tis wisdom's earthly fane
for here are all one
and our hearts are true
and the towers on the town
reach the heavens own blue.
for City, for City
'til the echoes ring again​
For City, for City
thy glory is our own
for City, for City
'tis here that truth is known
and ever with a right
shall our heirs be found
'til time shall be no more
and thy work is crowned
for City, for City​
thy glory is our own
