Seams like a few of us are getting inspired to write chants for our beloved Blades !!This is my first ever post, so please be gentle. I am a Blade of 50 plus years so I’ve been to hell and back and back again. After watching our team v Bolton I was inspired to write this ‘anthem’ which is not a replacement for Greasy Chip butty,. This is a ‘call to arms’ a ‘war cry’, to inspire a cavalry charge to get us over the line and back towards where we belong. I would just love it if they would print it in the program so that 20000 + could sing it at the next home match. The tune is to a great song from Les Miserable called ‘Do you here the people sing’ (see attached link if you are not familiar with it). It may be a bit long, but is says it all !!


Do you hear the Shoreham Boys
Singing for Chrissy Wilders’ men
This is the anthem of the Blades fans
So we sing this song for them

When the passion on the pitch
Echo's the passion on the kop
The Red and White Army's march will never stop

We’ve got Freeman, Moore and Hanson
Jack O’Connel, Fleck and Wright
Duffy, Coutts and Lafferty,
Chris Basham keeps it tight
King Billy’s on fire so the future is all RED & WHITE
(repeat verse 1 & 2)
So we're calling on you Blades fans
From the Lane End to the kop
To make some noise and raise the roof
Our team will never stop
Together we'll fight every game to go right to the top !
 

Les miserables? Thats a bit intelectual for this forum. I prefer kunt and the gang. Check out the Carol Vordeman song on you tube. :-)
 

We could go a step further and enact all of Les Mis over the whole 90 mins!

I dreamed a dream of blades gone by
When we were high
And life worth living
I dreamed that we would never die
I dreamed that God would be forgiving
Then I was young and unafraid
No signings made and used and wasted
There was no desso to be paid
No song unsung, no beer untasted
 
"It's from Les Miserables ... "
"Who?"
"Lez Miser-ay-bles."
"Is he French? Used to play for Marseilles? QPR? No, that was Les Ferdinand, wonnit?"
"Neyaw. It's a film. A musical."
"Oh aye? Like Grease?"
"Aye, but in France. Only years back. Anne Hathaway were in it?"
"Shakespeare's missus?"
"Neyaw. Actress. Dead fit looking, but needs a few pies."
"Did she sing it? Were it in t'charts? Did Hallam play it? Is it on Youtube?"
"Don't know. Here. Here's t'lyrics ... "
"It's in English. I thought it were in French?"
"Do you hear the Shoreham Boys ... "
" ... but we're on t'John Street."
" ... aye, but ... "
"When the passion on the pitch
Echo's the passion on the kop ... "
"He's got that wrong."
"What?"
"'Echo's. It should be 'echoes'"
"Duffy, Coutts and Lafferty,
Chris Basham keeps it tight ... "
"Basham's not playing today. Groin strain. Is this meant to be to the tune of 'Barrel of Money'?"
"Our team will never stop
Together we'll fight every game to go right to the top!"
*checks mobile*
"We're already at the top by seven points. When did he write this?"

*pause*

"YOU'RE GONNA GET YOUR FUCKIN' 'EADS KICKED IN!"

Les Miserables

Yorkshire bloke Les has an unfortunate surname

Les Routiers

All well and good but what's your favourite cheese?

Industrial deafness caused by the incessant cries of 'Hoof it', 'Ave it' and 'Go long' from the tens of thousands of S2 hoofers.

Thought you'd have know that, to be honest.

I thought it went without saying. Don't forget my personal favourite from the S2 intelligentsia: "Avafuckinshotfafuxsake" when a player is 35 yards out, stationary, off balance and surrounded by a human wall of opposition players.
 
I had an idea for a blades song using the Le Nozzie de Figaro from the Marriage of Figaro (and I guarantee you've all heard it, but where have you heard it?). Surely the most beautiful sound ever made!



But I thought better than to mention it to a stadium full of blokes who struggle to belt out a rendition of Annie's song without getting into a 20 page rant about the Magnet/Maggots lyrics!

But welcome anyhoo Bowman Blade, can't wait for your next idea :confused:;):)

I'm working on one too.

Alright stop,
Collaborate and listen,
Wilder's back with a brand new invention

Still working on the rest. Welcome aboard.

Go on then....

Alright stop,
Collaborate and listen,
Wilder's back with a brand new invention...

Moore commands and grabs the ball tightly
Then rolls it out to Freeman or Lafferty
Will they hoof?
Don't think so,
we're no longer managed by Semi-Pro.
pass it to Coutts, he composes like Handel
passes light up the pitch like a 100 watt candle

Fleck,
player with panache;
passing, dribbling and giving whiplash.
Duffy, when he hits a dope cross,
assisting, unlocking, defenders look lost
Hanson or Lavery
I don't know
Carruthers and O'Shea joining the show
If you need a goal?
Yo who'll score it,
give him the ball and Billy will bury it.
