Not Giving In and Never Tear Us Apart (songs)

[Lightning_Rod]

Liverpool have only finished outside the top 6 9 times since the mid 60s

Port have had 4 above average years and 1 premiership in 23 years...

Big difference

Big difference, Liverpool haven't won a title for 29 years !!!!!!
Not to mention there is no salary cap in the premier league.

NTUA is not the problem. Lol. It's tradition now.

Agree about never give in... That shit ran it's course in 2015

Yep, NTUA is still applicable. And always will be. Not giving in is a 'What? Really Port?' piss take now.

Come on why would a Port troll have joined in 2008?

I'm too scared they'll replace "Not Givin In" with something worse so I think it stays.

Was 'the creed' viewed as a disposable gimmick when Fos wrote it?

Maybe we should get rid of that too.....

Ha! Love the group rehearse line. Can somebody please post the video of the 19th man rehearsing their chants from a few years back. One of the all time most tragic efforts to build a club from a corporation.

When they ruined NGI by putting a little intro to it was when that died for me.

The absolute best part of NGI is the slow, quiet intro. That slow dum... dum.... dum... that starts to build higher and faster.

It would start to ring out at an unexpected time and people would react, stand up and slowly get into it, and by the time they were all clapping, it was at the up tempo part where the clapping isn't awkward and drawn out.

Now with the stupid intro, it's like a prompt "Get up and start clapping power fans" without actually saying it. Everyone feels forced to get up, we all start clapping way too early in the song which makes it feel like it drags, and the initial slow intro/feel of the surprise of the song starting has been killed.

I mean they even call out the time of it on the run sheet like it is a rehearsed piece of the entertainment for ****s sake. I mean seriously keep that stuff in house, don't advertise it like that. Let it be the organic, natural run out song it started as and the song that got us up and about.

Anyway, whoever is in charge of the game day entertainment that does this sort of 'commercialising'/bastardising of these naturally developed fan driven engagement activities needs a rocket.


I mean if I ever hear "Stand up and hold those scarves up high Power fans" again I'll go ape.

 

[Arsene Wenger]

I love both songs. Reckon theyre awesome and look forward to them every week.

 

[Prison bar Pete]

The horns in NGI sound a bit lame to me, but it's otherwise OK

 

[Jonts]

Until there is people with
saxophones scattered around the place who play the solo in NTUA it'll be only ever be a 9/10

Great post and agree 100%. I even gave that feedback to the club once about the horrid change to the start of NGI but never heard anything back.

 

[bow and arrow]

I agree. Love them both!

I'm a bit over NTUA personally if we're being completely honest, but the vast majority of the crowd still gets around it, and as long as that's still the case, we should keep doing it. I'm not selfish enough to think that my personal opinion outweighs 40k other crowd members.

There is a special place reserved in hell for anybody at the PAFC who had anything to do with the cultural destruction of what was formerly an iconic Australian rock song.

Michael Hutchence would be turning in his grave.

Also, it's a shitty song, we just made it slightly less shittier.

Nice response tough guy.

Did you type that from your parent's basement?

I see NTUA as a tradition that should be continued and NGI as something that i've basically lost interest in and i'd be quite happy for a refresh.

If we stop doing NTUA, it becomes the stupid small time gimmick that opposition fans always told us it was. It needs to continue.

What we should be doing with NTUA is making it clear it's NOT for opposition fans to join in with. That shits me. It's not a sing-a-long, it's an on-going and continued declaration of war on all those against us. Even if at times the last 3 or 4 years, it's been us fans singing it against some of those AT the club.
