News New (unofficial) anthem

[Hawk Hawkins]

Thanks Daryl and Goo. Let's see what Smithy has in place.

"SORRY Daryl, but that’s the way it’s gonna be, little darling’.

Hawthorn looks set to break with tradition and stop singing Daryl Braithwaite’s hit song ‘The Horses’ after big wins.

The iconic ballad has become synonymous with the Hawks since 2013 as a way to celebrate stirring victories."

Maybe we can look at having specific songs for certain teams.

If we beat the very brave *Bombers, maybe 'White Lines (don't do it)' by Grand Master Flash? Not the easiest song to sing by a group of footy players without a synthesizer though.

For the Bombers, how about 'The drugs don't work' by The Verve?

I vote Rock of Ages by Def Leppard, Randy Datona style pregame

Any truth in the rumour that Daryl Braithwaite’s writing a new song "The Hawkers"?

Now I'd sing along with that!

If you ever wanted to hear what our official anthem was based on:



Funny that when he starts getting into it you can't help but sing our words to it. Takes about 1:30 to get into our song.

 

[Mitchell Madness]

honestly, should be Only Prettier. Lets face it, it is our club, particularly "we dont have to like eachother but its fun to pretend," given every week there seems to be an article on those pesky hawks...

and "we're just like you, only prettier"

It shouldn't be this, but this is awesome:

NIN Closer might be taking it too far, right?

Great! I think that really works if we win this weekend.

Nine Inch Nails?

Do you want to scare the kiddies?

How about paying tribute to the late, great Hawks fan - Shirley Strachan and using this underrated gem:

Yeah, we learnt that tune in Primary (to display my ancientness to one and all). Makes it easy to be a Yank and a Hawks fan - LOL!

The team songs are yet another reason for me to despise Sydney. They use the frickin' Notre Dame fight song. Makes me want to puke!

There's a bit of gangnam style in that clip

Needs bagpipes

I'm a little teapot. (but with two spouts so we get the double cobra.)

Another idea playing on the 'one for all and all for one' theme of our team song. Plus it's just a bloody sensational power ballad with one of the best bridges you'll hear.

Back in the Ian dicker days they tried to get 'we are family' going

No cigar

Maybe the song from 2015 (any minute now the swans will make a comeback) grand final. One of the most covered songs ever. I like this version

SAHB were the Scottish skyhooks. Who copied who?
