2018 Campaign Song

[Old Spice]

Port Adelaide have pilfered INXS's 'Never Tear us Apart' as a pre-game song. Richmond have used The White Stripes 'Seven Nation Army' at the start of games. I think it's time the Pies had a song, at least one to use for a season campaign.

I reckon the Pies should try and get the music rights to Bruce Springsteen's 'Dancing in the Dark'. The lyrics are Collingwood all over.

don't need the music video, just parts of the audio to overlay over footage of fans, players, the game etc.

Not sure I agree Old Spice
I get up in the evening, and I ain't got nothing to say
I come home in the morning, I go to bed feeling the same way
I ain't nothing but tired, man I'm just tired and bored with myself
Hey there baby, I could use just a little help
[Chorus:]
You can't start a fire, you can't start a fire without a spark
This gun's for hire even if we're just dancing in the dark

Message just keep getting clearer, radio's on and I'm moving round my place
I check my look in the mirror wanna change my clothes my hair my face
Man I ain't getting nowhere I'm just livin in a dump like this
There's something happening somewhere baby I just know that there is

[Chorus:]

You sit around getting older there's a joke here somewhere and it's on me
I'll shake this world off my shoulders come on baby the laughs on me
Stay on the streets of this town and they'll be carving you up alright
They say you got to stay hungry hey baby I'm just about starving tonight
I'm dying for some action I'm sick of sitting 'round here trying to write
This book
I need a love reaction come on baby give me just one look

[Chorus:]
You can't start a fire, sittin' 'round cryin' over a broken heart
This gun's for hire even if we're just dancing in the dark

You can't start a fire, worryin' about your little world falling apart
This gun's for hire even if we're just dancing in the dark

Even if we're just dancing in the dark
Even if we're just dancing in the dark
Even if we're just dancing in the dark

Hey baby!

 

[Schraderbrau]

Until proven otherwise I think we should play the Benny Hill theme every time they run onto the ground. No way they deserve a pump up song after 5 years of no finals.

Even if we're just dancing in the dark
Even if we're just dancing in the dark

Hey baby!

We're going on a heroes journey which doesn't start with victory and have it all the way through, but with loss and difficulty. It's all about the struggle and the spark, giving it a go and putting our balls on the line even if we can't know the result. Dancing in the dark.

First verse

I get up in the evening, and I ain't got nothing to say
I come home in the morning, I go to bed feeling the same way
I ain't nothing but tired, man I'm just tired and bored with myself
Hey there baby, I could use just a little help

Starts with players coming off the ground after a loss.
Going to training in the morning disappointed
Some close ups of dejected player faces
Some diehard fans at training patting players as they pass

etc. Culminating in Pies winning games toward the end and the fan engagement.

Chorus
You can't start a fire, sittin' 'round cryin' over a broken heart
This gun's for hire even if we're just dancing in the dark

That's exactly why they need it. Do a Maxy circa 2009 and put your nuts on the line and say we're here and we want it.

Scary how much time has flown by.

But she was very sweet

4 years of no finals

But imagine Benny Hill and what Caro would do with that ?

Almost, almost worth it

 

[TW Sherrin]

I've had this song in my head for a longtime as a great song to play pre game.

Born to be alive.

Change alive to pie.

Thunderstruck?

Would that work?

Or back in black?

Something pumping and easy enough to sing along too.

 

[Alexander323bc]

If we had our own ground “welcome to the jungle” would be apt. Maybe for the VFL team?
Thunderstruck should be for the Power. They missed a trick there.

Thats the storms song.

 

[millsy29gopies]

Power by Kanye West. They played this at our games in 2011, let's bring back some of the energy from that year.

They do things well the purple super team.

Only one song will do. Holy Grail by H&C.

No JMAC, no, please no, no, no, no, PLEASE GOD NO!

David Soul ex Starsky and Hutch will inspire us.

 

[Seedsfan]

When I use to play sport I would always listen to Eminem Lose Yourself. As you only have one shot and you have to take it

 

[Leviathan Pie]

Gimmicky pre-game rituals.

Pass.

Maybe, but tell me that you don’t associate Lionel Richie with Collingwood since 2010!
Also having been to a Liverpool game (I’m an arsenal supporter) there is something awe inspiring and spine tingling listening to their supporters sing you will never walk alone before the game.

Haha, that was a great day. Lionel was dominant early.

Dancing on the ceiling takes me back to the glorious day in October 2010! Every time.
