Walk out music (6 Viewers)

[Bazza66]

Hi,

I'm sitting having a beer in Norfolk with my mate who's a Coventry City fan, I'm a Notts County fan BTW, and we got talking about the music teams walk out to.

He cannot remember the music from the 90's that Cov came out to and its doing his head in. Lol

Any ideas? I've tried to Google it but with no success.

Thanks in advance,
Bazza

Mr Blue Sky

Introduced by the dulcet tone of the late Jim Twyneham.

He says out wasn't that one.

Dont know then, there was a time we ran out to a really horrid instrumental version of The Sky Blue Song, apart from that its over to other forumites who may come up with your friends recollection.
Enjoy your beer.

Stand up for The Sky Blues by Jim Miekle

 

[junglej13]

There was a short period around 1996 where in the midst of a relegation battle I swear we came out to Search for the Hero by M People.

Nottingham County, used to hate you until we smashed you 4-1 at your place. Wish you all the best now.

Who are Nottingham County, don't think we've ever played them?

 

[Tommo1993]

‘While the Sky is Blue’ - The Believers.

Used to sing ‘While the Sky is grey, we’ll win today’

 

[Frank Sidebottom]

Didn't we run out to Sandstorm by Darude for a bit in the 90s or was that played just before?

 

[Tommo1993]

We had the classic ‘O Fortuna’ at some point too

Watching West Ham, Leeds, Forest etc all coming out to a rendition of their anthem, I've always thought having a slowed version of Play Up Sky Blues sung in sync would be fantastic.

Similar to how Jimmy Hill led it multiple times.

A slow jazz version used to be played when we came out at one time

I think I remember it but I don't even remember the fans singing in unison.

Notts Forest's rivals aren't they?

It’s For Life, Son by B.A. Robertson

 

[Jagmannn]

Thats a very rare CD ...just been listed on Ebay for £20.00

 

[Philosoraptor]

B A Robertson. Now, that's a music artist and a half.

Actually wrote Mike & The Mechanics, 'The Living Years.'

It’s For Life, Son by B.A. Robertson

He wrote some cracking tunes, this wasn't one of them.

Was it something by the Nolans?

This was in the seventies no? Maybe early eighties too. I miss it.

Yes remember that, I didn’t like it at all.

No way, Eaton Boating Song is a dirge, a tradition here I know but hardly a tub thumper

[SkyblueDad]

Mr Blue Sky best by a mile should re-introduce it.

Co-wrote with Mike Rutherford. I

 

[Gynnsthetonic]

When I've been to see Stiff Little Fingers over the years I've always thought 'Go For It' would be a great one to run out to, I think BBC have adopted it now for their FA Cup coverage. Its instrumental, can see us running out to that at a packed CBS play off semi final

 

[wingy]

It's overused but is it kajagoogoo Mark?

‘While the Sky is Blue’ - The Believers.

Used to sing ‘While the Sky is grey, we’ll win today’

Yes it was definitely While the Sky is Blue. You can hear it from 50 seconds here, in our famous 1999 Boxing Day win over Arsenal! My first ever Boxing Day game!
Happy times!

It’s For Life, Son by B.A. Robertson

I know it was god awful, but why can’t I find this song anywhere so I can torture myself one last time? It’s been stuck in my head since 2001.

 

[Liquid Gold]

I'm pretty sure for a period at the turn of the millennium we came out to the final countdown
