We're going to win the shield.

I voted for 5 chants, but I absolutely love two of them:

New York is Always Blue. The video of Celtic's version is so captivating, I only hope we could do it justice with out version. The fact that it includes Yankee Doodle at the end is even better.

And with that segue, the version of Yankee Doodle for us - New York City Came To Town - is also brilliant songwriting, and I think would song really good as well.

Of the lot these were the two I voted for as well. They seem to be the most realistic.

I think an "anthem" or "song" will be left for dead in these votes. Agreed with both of you that those two are top notch.

 

[MyBoyVilla]

More votes please.

There is a poll at the top of the thread.

::slaps forehead:: Thanks

So if all of the supporters are singing a song you don't like, you will not join in?

And you are in charge of atmosphere. LOL.

Cant shit on my home

Good point. I didn't think of the fact that many of our supporters are from NJ, even though our rivalry is technically NY vs NJ.

Put the hate on Harrison and Newark....fucking shit holes

 

[Anton M.]

Don't really like any of these =\

 

[Lmaster86]

Shouldn't it be "New York's blue, white, and orange."

 

[EDsta]

Idk I feel like the Ny is always blue is way too similar to the cosmos and red bulls chants

New Yorks red and white (Red Bulls)
New Yorks green and white (Cosmos)

I think we should keep it different from them

 

[MyBoyVilla]

Couple of songs with good support. Let's see if any of the next 10 are equally popular.

Forgot about that Simon and Garfunkel song but I like it. Either that or NY State of Mind are good "ballads" for the stadium. NY NY just doesnt have that feel to it that these two do. Do Also love Mr. Blue Sky. But all the chants on this poll are good.

 

[ManCavePoker]

I'm one of those fans that supported the Redbulls prior to NYCFC. I am not in favor of going out of the way to try to antagonize the team or fans but I do think Reverend Horton Heat's "Eat Steak" is pretty funny to use when playing local rivals. The whole "pink cows" theme seems lame and overused but it would be funny to see large group of guys singing that tune while Dosey Doeing around like fools.

After the chant of New York City came to town we should go like Badda da da da da da badda bup bup badda...etc
