Bit of a shameless plug with him being a good mate of mine granted.

I thought it was great. Really enjoyed it

We sing a Liverpool song. Although we have changed the word Liverpool to Coventry.

We don't do the second verse either

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

YNWA is a 'Tic tune

The scousers also sing the worst version of the Fields of Athenry ever

I didn’t realise it was written and made famous by a Glaswegian band

 

[oakey]

Can they stop the music blasting out at mind shredding volume to the queues outside - that just made the wait horrible and increased tension.

So did I. It would need jazzing up though to be used for match day

It was far too loud for the system, completely distorted. I don’t mind the sound being pumped outside, just get the levels right.

Liverpool have been singing a Celtic song for years.

If you're talking about YNWA, it was Liverpool first then adopted by Celtic shortly after.

Was written by Rodgers & Hammerstein for Carousel TBF. Was when Gerry & the Pacemakers covered it that Liverpool adopted it (1963), after Gerry sent a copy to Shankly. Celtic took it back shortly after a game with Liverpool (European Cup semi final in 1966).

You get my point

 

[Malaka]

Mastadon 'Blood and Thunder'

Would scare the f*ck out of teams.

 

[Hobo]

Another Iggy Pop suggestion

The Ricoh PA system has always been booming and crap.

 

[KG7]

They ran out to Mr Blue Sky didn't they? And then the Eton Boating song came in for the player announcements?

Worked well. You lot have no taste.

 

[Legia Sky Blue]

I'm in the keep it Cov related camp, so given that culturally Cov is renowned for 2 tone musically it would make sense to go for that. Agree with the Guns of Navarone suggestions, but I would imagine that someone with mixing talent could put together a Specials/ Selecter mix that could work.

some of these suggestions are beyond weird. Think of all the teams who are renowned for what happens when the team comes out and they all have a song that belongs to them and nobody else.

playing back home in Coventry, a phoenix on the shirt, references to two spires on the shirt detail, Jimmy hill flags… and then some random shite song to run out to that has no connection to the club or the city whatsoever

King - Alone without you
The intro would do

 

[Brylowes]

Nice touch to play “Enjoy Yourself” as we left the stadium yesterday

This would be my pick for entrance music, the Specials version obviously.

Bump

just came across this on Twitter, would it work at the CBS or too cringe and try hard American?

No thanks

There are 80,231 crammed into that stadium, in good weather, all pumped up, waiting to see a very successful team.

Try it in front of 13,000 stupefied middle-aged blokes in the freezing cold before a relegation battle v Blackpool and I don’t think it would be quite as much of a spectacle I mean- can you picture grendel & co bouncing around to that? They’d put their hips out even before any mention of pigs & cops

Definite no- what possible connection has that got with Coventry? Massively cringeworthy

That looks great but it works in America. I don't think it would quite have the same effect in Coventry!

You clearly never went to the Dog & Trumpet on a Saturday night in the 90s and watched the 16/17 year olds leaping around like good uns. 16/17 year olds who would now be middle aged!

I saw them. I was 14.

 

[Winny the Bish]

If we're stealing College Football entrance songs then I want Enter Sandman instead -

 

[Bernie Rhodes Nose]

I think Guns Of Navarone by the Specials ticks all the boxes:
1. It's Coventry
2. The book/film is about a band of renegades battling, against all the odds, against a greater foe.
3. It's got that thumping ska sound.
4. And no lyrics

 

[Sick Boy]

I would love Message to you Rudi as "the song". The lyrics of so many of The Specials songs are outstanding and relate so much to City of Coventry.

It’s hardly going to get people fired up though, is it?

I’ve always said this… love the Specials version

Said this on here years ago.

Play original version as entrance music, more upbeat Specials version at end of the game (if we win!).

Better not do that at St. Andrew’s …

 

[the rumpo kid]

Always thought Jonny Nash the harder they come the harder they fall would be a great song to come out to.

 

[JAM See]

The Doctor Who theme.

Credited to Ron Grainer but really the work of the mighty Delia Derbyshire (Barr's Hill girl)

 

[skylark37]

On a side note - does anyone know what the really cheesy 80s sax music is that Newcastle walk out to at St.James' Park?
Not that I like it. Just asking for a friend.

It’s Dire Straits isn’t it?

Local band, see, connection to the club and the city

 

[skylark37]

Yep - there it is
