I don't post much or often, but this has been bugging me for a while.
The first chorus used to be "We're the pride of South Australia, we're the mighty Adelaide Crows". Sometime later they rejigged the theme song, and turned that lyric into "We're the pride of South Australia, and we're known as the Adelaide Crows".
I hate that change, and I can't find any reason for it, and most of the time I hear people singing it they ignore that "known as the" line and stick with "mighty". The word "mighty" is used later in the song, so there's obviously not a problem with the word.
There was an membership advert on Triple M last week, talking about my song, my team, my history. And they're right. That was my song. What this is, isn't my song. My team are the mighty Adelaide Crows, and that's what we should be known as.
For what it's worth, I'm not going to renew my membership until my song is put right again. It was only a supporter membership, and maybe I'm making a mountain out of a molehill, but, in the words of Popeye, "That's all I can stands, and I can't stands no more."
If the club wants my money, they'll fix the damn song.
