Ideas For Songs/chants

[einwindir]

alright MyBoyCity you're putting me to work, here's the best I can do:
1:35-1:42
we are a population
united blue and white
we stand our ground
and we'll never run from a fight

*replaces
we are a corporation
we are a company
we are high above you anyway

I've been listening and reading it off for the past 20 minutes. It works. It's gotta work.

I think it'd be good to adopt some college football/basketball chants/cheers to break away from the constantly recycled soccer stuff.

I'd love to figure out a way to recreate jump around at a soccer game.

This would be great for when we score or win

 

[MrMartinezNYC]

2x- We are The City
2x- The FC of New York City
2x- Get Loud If your With Me
2x- Welcome to New York City

2x- We are The City
2x- The FC of New York City
2x- Get Loud If your With Me
2x- Welcome to our City

What do you guys think...
Id start a new thread and get more organized but I think we are doing just fine right now.
I'm going to try working with some rhymes and changing them up to suit us.
Kind of like the here's to you mrs Robinson (here's to you Vincent Kompany) see what I can get done.

I think there is plenty of time before we start playing to get those songs organized, lets just keep throwing out ideas.

I have put together a recap of all ideas below

And Anthem Ideas

 

[Buckley]

SO MANY GOOD IDEAS!!!!

 

[MrMartinezNYC]

For the Anthem we should be using a NY song... a classic works for all ages and groups but lets not forget:
"Tell by my attitude that I'm most definitely from....
New York, concrete jungle where dreams are made of
There's nothin' you can't do
Now you're in New York
These streets will make you feel brand new
Big lights will inspire you
Let's hear it for New York, New York,
New York" - Empire State of Mind

 

[MrMartinezNYC]

skip to 0:50 seconds into the song

 

[kylelovescrayons]

We could always do the LCD version - NY I love you > Empire state of mind

 

[BToto920]

There are a few songs that I have been toying with. They aren't really "original" but here they are.

"NYC We Are Here" to the tune of "Guinness Boys"
"You Are My City" to the tune of "You Are My Sunshine"
"When The Blues Come Marching In" to the tune of "When The Saints Come Marching In"
"We All Cheer for NYCFC" to the tune of "Yellow Submarine"

Then a simple one:
NY
NYC
NYC (clap, clap) FC

 

[Buckley]

Jason Kreis' Blue Army (repeat x 47563850)

 

[BToto920]

Jason Kreis, Superstar
(To the tune of Jesus Christ, Superstar)
Jason Kreis
Jason Kreis
For you and the blues we will sacrifice
Jason Kreis
Jason Kreis
For you and the blues we will sacrifice
Jason Kreis
Superstar
You are what we say you are
Jason Kreis
Superstar
You are what we say you are
Superstar (clap, clap, clap)
Superstar (clap, clap, clap)
Superstar (clap, clap, clap)

 

[Falastur]

Good call - it fits so well, I'm not sure why it never occurred to me before you mentioned it just now.

That said, I think there's definitely room for improvisation on extra verses here. I'm trying to think of rhymes I like more (I'm sure other people could do better than this), but you could easily slot in more lines like these:

Jason Kreis, Jason Kreis,
Came to New York for the merchandise.
Jason Kreis, Jason Kreis,
Came from Salt Lake and his hair's quite nice.
Jason Kreis, manager,
Drove around England in a Jaguar,
Jason Kreis, manager,
The best head coach in the US, by far.

I can make a new forum section for songs/chants so people can post ideas in desperate threads and others can reply specifically to those individual ideas and obviously the better ideas will be at the top with more replies.
Thoughts?

 

[Matt Kelly]

We should adapt a basic chant like a song like "Blue Skies" stated before.

 

[NYCFCFan10]

ESPN stole my thunder.

P.s. I had no idea the AO did this chant.

 

[NYCFC_Dan]

They did a hell of a job on that video. I was quite surprised.

Going with The Remember the Titans warmup theme and Third Rail as the Supporters Club name

Everywhere we go (2x)
People wanna know (2x)
Who we are (2x)
So we tell them (2x)

We are the Third Rail (2x)
The mighty mighty Third Rail (2x)
