Tooogs Posted September 24, 2010 Posted September 24, 2010 That's class mate. We can share the royalties with queen. Seriously tho it took me about 10mins to come up with that. The second draft is much more polished. I like the chorus. Shame I can't ever imagine hearing it at ewood

london-rover Posted September 24, 2010 Posted September 24, 2010 Tooogs, hope you don't mind I had a bash at modifying some of the lyrics from your tune so it scans better. Syllable perfect to the original (except the 'coz' in brackets and providing you pronous 'Premier' as 'Premyeah' - poetic licence) and made sure it all rhymes (wasn't sure about 'care' and 'here' in your version bit it might just be my southern accent LOL), anyhoo let us know what you think, at least half of it is your original... Tune... Our Uncle Jack rebuilt our team Turned our nightmare into our dream He got us to the Premier League Just like he set out to achieve He gave us all those world class stars In 95 the league was ours He made us cheer, we never cried He made us feel like we could fly Jack won't become some background noise Forgotten by the girls and boys We'll let them know, we'll make them care How great it was, when you were there We had our time, we had the power We won't forget our finest hour...Uncle Jack All we know is Uncle Jack loved us Uncle Jack bought us (coz) Uncle Jack loved us All we know is Uncle Jack loved us Uncle Jack made us Uncle Jack what's new? Uncle Jack, Rovers still love you. thats awesome!!

rebelmswar Posted September 24, 2010 Posted September 24, 2010 1-0 and we're bound to loose, 1-0 and we're bound to loose, 1-0 and we're bound to loose, 1-0 and we're bound to loose. To the tune of "Go West"
Hughesy Posted September 24, 2010 Posted September 24, 2010 Whats the odds 'you can stick your f****n tower up your arse' makes itself heard?
tashor Posted September 24, 2010 Posted September 24, 2010 Suggest we hijack this Seasiders classic - We are the Rovers...we hate burnleeeeeeeeyyy........
RIML Posted September 24, 2010 Posted September 24, 2010 1-0 and we're bound to loose, 1-0 and we're bound to loose, 1-0 and we're bound to loose, 1-0 and we're bound to loose. To the tune of "Go West" I will post this picture every time someone spells lose wrong
rebelmswar Posted September 24, 2010 Posted September 24, 2010 I will post this picture every time someone spells lose wrong That was an inference to a long drawn out drunken lose. RIML joins the list 24092010 #3288. Category "Bigot"
RIML Posted September 24, 2010 Posted September 24, 2010 That was an inference to a long drawn out drunken lose. RIML joins the list 24092010 #3288. Category "Bigot" Ok, it is just the one spelling error that really gets on my t*ts
rebelmswar Posted September 24, 2010 Posted September 24, 2010 Ok, it is just the one spelling error that really gets on my t*ts Its okay. How some say the word pork annoys me. Note to self - RIML can be bluffed. Downgrade from "Bigot" to "Foxfire"
brian_gallagher85 Posted September 24, 2010 Posted September 24, 2010 Note to self - RIML can be bluffed. Downgrade from "Bigot" to "Foxfire" *Note to rebelmswar - stop inadvertently causing me to have to explain words and phrases all afternoon
RIML Posted September 24, 2010 Posted September 24, 2010 *Note to rebelmswar - stop inadvertently causing me to have to explain words and phrases all afternoon You didn't have to write, "causing me to have to explain" 'causing me to explain' would have sufficed
rog of the rovers Posted September 24, 2010 Posted September 24, 2010 Heard Mame, Mame Diouf (to the tune of Daddy Cool) creeping in during the Fulham game.
J*B Posted September 24, 2010 Posted September 24, 2010 What would my Mama Diouf, oh oh oh oh If she new 'bout me and you, oh oh oh oh? Benjani whoa, We got him on a free, He's got a dodgy knee?
Exiled_Rover Posted September 24, 2010 Posted September 24, 2010 Why not Toogs, be ambitious! It's far too complex to take off.
Laurence Posted September 24, 2010 Posted September 24, 2010 Benjani whoa, We got him on a free, He's got a dodgy knee. That is very good
Guest bluerovers Posted September 24, 2010 Posted September 24, 2010 To our old friend Brett Ormerod who is now plying his trade with Blackpool (via Accy) after being released at 19 by Rovers in 1995 (grew up in Blackburn and his family are all Rovers fans)... Ormerod we can't believe it We never thought you'd end up at Bloomfield Road, and Ormerod we can't believe it We never thought you'd end up at Bloomfield Road ...ect Or this is another one I made up for Niko ( )Kalinic, he's a Rover When he scores, it's all over Gets the winner in the game They'll mis-pronounce his name Big Sam gave him the dream of playing for our team You know we wouldn't have it any other way

I still love the Super Niko Kalinic song though.
Guest bluerovers Posted September 25, 2010 Posted September 25, 2010 Exiled, are you the Simon Cowell of football chants? The Super Niko Kalinic one, do you mean this? Some bloke was singing this in the 'Fox and Hounds' after the Burnley away game last year. Most songs on here are usually far too wordy to catch on with the masses. This may be the same, but here it is (to the tune of 'Super Calla Fraglistic Exbeallydoshus') Super Niko Kalinic our Striker from Croatia, Everytime he gets the ball you know that you're in danger, He can score from anywhere, a tap in or long ranger, Super Niko Kalinic out Striker from Croatia. It bugs me, I'm a bit anal and think the "Niko" bit shouldn't be there (as the real song goes "supercali..." it would be better if this one went "Super Kali..") and Crotia doesn't replace 'docious' very well, but the word "Rovers" does, so it should go (IMO) "Super Kalinic [something 7 syllables long] Rovers" then the verses. I'll play around with it.
AspRover Posted September 25, 2010 Posted September 25, 2010 Feel free, but I failed to come up with anything allong those lines when I wrote the above. Believe me I tried, I agree with the points you make! I was going to suggest 'Manage Madrid, You could manage Madrid, Could you defend a (insert expletive) lead If you managed Madrid?' But Emo scored to save Sam's Blushes! My old man also suggests (to the tune of whole world in his hands) We've got two Dioufs in our side, two dioufs in our side Etc etc. With possible verses of 'We've got El Hadj Diouf in our side' 'We've got Ma-me Diouf in our side' Ad infinitum.

Tune... Our Uncle Jack rebuilt our team Turned our nightmare into our dream He got us to the Premier League Just like he set out to achieve He gave us all those world class stars In 95 the league was ours He made us cheer, we never cried He made us feel like we could fly Jack won't become some background noise Forgotten by the girls and boys We'll let them know, we'll make them care How great it was, when you were there We had our time, we had the power We won't forget our finest hour...Uncle Jack All we know is Uncle Jack loved us Uncle Jack bought us (coz) Uncle Jack loved us All we know is Uncle Jack loved us Uncle Jack made us Uncle Jack what's new? Uncle Jack, Rovers still love you. dont like the last line, hows about Uncle Jack, Rovers throughhh and throughhh
Guest bluerovers Posted September 25, 2010 Posted September 25, 2010 OK I seeing as it was "too complex" to be a chant might as well go the whole hog so I finished it off. Viola....
