Lions and appropriate songs

[Vidman]

Saw this on the main board and thought it worth transferring here. Think of some of your fave songs, and match them with the lions. Here's some of mine to kick you off.

"I'm your man" - Aker to Bulldogs (leonard cohen)
"arseh*le" aker in general (d leary)
"Do I move you?" - Robbie Copeland (nina simone)
"I heard it on the grapevine" - trade week
"If I could turn back time" - Carlton? (cher)
DIVORCE - aker and leigh
"everybody hurts" - Lions injury list 06 (REM)
"brothers in arms" - Scott brothers (dire straits)
"money for nothing" - M Voss in 2007 (dire straits)
"air on a G string" - Tania Buckley
"Shut Up" - aker (black eyed peas)
"knockin on heavens door" - adelaide (bob dylan)
"I shall be released" - aker again (bob dylan)
"Super Bad" - Carlton (james brown)
"Time to say goodbye.." - Voss, Leppa, Michael etc (andrea bocelli)
"Cant stand losing you" half the lions fans on the aker trade (the police)
"If you love somebody set them free" - the other half (the police)
"Too long in exile" - old fitzroy supporters (van morrison)
"Fast Car" - Ben cousins? (tracey chapman)
"Virtual Insanity" - Freo trading record (jamoriquai)

Bit of fun to help pass the offseason away..

Browny - "Golden Brown" (Stranglers)

don't like this one, did you know the song was all about drug use - heroine specifically.

Much Better is Johnny Cash's Big Bad John provided you don't take into account the end of the song.

Big John
Big John

Every mornning at the mine, you could see him arrive.
He stood 6 foot 6, weighed 245.
Kind of broad at the shoulders, narrow at the hip.
And everybody knew you didn't give no lip to Big John.

Big John
Big John
Big Bad John
Big John

 

[SunKing]

Yeah I heard Golden Brown was about drug use but it's such a gorgeous song you can really interpret it anyway you like. If you look at many of The Beatles later songs many are drug related.

Speaking of the fabs..

Fixing A Hole - Brisbane 2007

 

[Chezzalenko Reborn]

Another one bites the dust - After each of our boys was added to the injury list

 

[danielcan]

D:REAM - Things can only get better.

 

[POBT]

Yeah but unfortunately, there are a lot of songs I like that have dark meanings. One of my favourite songs as a kid was Lola by The Kinks - do you think I knew Lola's little secret?....not even
But I know what I am and I'm glad I'm a man
And so is lola
Lo-lo-lo-lo lola lo-lo-lo-lo lola
Lola lo-lo-lo-lo lola lo-lo-lo-lo lola" gave me any idea!

Nick Riewoldt - "Better Be Home Soon" (Crowded House)
