News Club Song - Re-done

[Infamy]

1 - This didn't need another thread, there's already 10 pages on this
2 - I prefer the original, but the difference is pretty minimal, its not like they did a pop version
3 - I hate to think how much money the AFL wasted on doing this for every club

As one of the people who got bagged out for saying the club didnt need to fix the lyrics in the song....


THIS IS WHY

They should have let Richo and KB sing the word shin and yell yellow and black at the end.

The new singers have no passion at all.

Sounds like a money exercise.

They did have Richo & KB singing on it, they had the whole video about it late last year

 

[TigerTank]

Shin sounds s**t.
As does everything else in this dog's breakfast.
I want to SKIN every bastard who thought this was a good idea.

I know but I didn't think they were changing the original singers.

[HumanMeatball]

The musical instruments in the original sounds a lot better

 

[Punt rd end]

Absolute f**king disgrace. The original song(s) are iconic, nostalgic and powerfully performed

Evidently the AFL executive don't have enough work presently

Make some noise

But this is the original song, fables ****ed it up

Even though my music taste has rarely shifted from 70-90s I can still acknowledge an improvement. I listened a couple of times to ea and the original wins hands down. The new one lacks gusto which for a theme song that is a forerunner to the team running out is pretty Important

Love the pronunciation of "Tiger Of Old"

Never miss a chance to say you were right

* oath

Tbh it was more a subtle troll to the people in the correct the lyrics thread who were furious this hadnt been done, but are the same ones in this thread angry the song was changed

I’m no audiophile but I noticed 3 differences:
1. ‘land’ in Tigerland lingers on a bit - prob due to profesh singers
2. the banjo bit in between verses (which was almost my favourite bit) is lower in volume, just has a short flurry at end
3. yellow and black - I can hear RICHO and KB shouting. That’s an improvement.

Verdict for me - prefer the original, though the y &b shout is ok (if not a bit gimmicky and unnecessary.

Well how do you only mic up the horn and mute the crowd around it without post editting?

They had the mike running longer than the horn moment

there were coordination issues between the crowd and the box. remember this is only done at gws home games, and spotless doesnt have 20k people sitting behind the cheersquad. At the issues with the bowl, and it was a bit of a nightmare. it was only by the later goals that they were getting the timing close to right

Whatever, it would have been silent when gws did something good without it, all other gws games at the g that I have been to have quiet gws moments and this wouldn't have been any different. It's the first time I have heard their crowd coming through the P/A

of course - refer to my last post, its only done at GWS HOME games

ever since Port wanted to go full port at the elimination final against us, the AFL has been catering to club requests for activities that they do at home games

its why Geelong had the stupid bell (they ring it at every home game at Kat Park), and its why GWS do the horn thing (they do it after every goal at Spotless)

At Spotless, you have a very small lower tier, small corp tiers, and then another shallow tier above that. Add to this its a small cheersquad and its an open stadium, you dont get a huge amount of noise fighting against you

now look at the G at that end.

You have a massive bay behind goals, a big one up top, and the MCG bowl *s with sound more than Spotless.

This was not some grand AFL conspiracy to make the GWS crowd sound larger than it was. It was an attempt to get sound from a horn loud enough that it would be able to compete with the crowd noise AND the PA sound track, but to do that they had to juice it, which meant capturing the surrounding sound at the same time.

As mentioned, they incorrectly assumed the same arrangement with the same gear would work at the G that they use every home game. Its didnt, which in hindsight isnt surprising,

Haven’t you heard?
Everything is a AFL led conspiracy to bring down Richmond.
