The West Coast Eagles are changing their team song

[Thrawn]

Worst song in the league. Can barely follow it, and the way it pitches... sounds like someone squealing/whining. Terrible.

 

[My Cotchin Rules]

Awful. They already had one of worst theme songs. Managed to make it THE worst.

Officially worse than Fremantle & GC

 

[My Cotchin Rules]

I would rather this than that trash attempt

Ahh... memories.
This reminds me of when i was kid watching them belt the cats in 1994 GF then hearing it on repeat during the post game celebrations.
This was also the game that nearly got me switching to barraking for them as Richmond were putrid at best growing up especially in WA. Dad almost gave me the wooden spoon to the face when I mentioned it so obviously didn't eventute.

 

[HaroLad]

guarantee the CD will be on the shelves at the club store as i type this.

Won't be long before other clubs catch on, they'll be making millions in CD sales from this.

 

[Topkent]

People hate WC's new song.

Shocker.

We'll enjoy singing it when we beat all of you.

Gonna be legit watching them read the lyrics off a board like an under 8s side.

 

[greenpike]

It works for the media for this year. Far worse things could have been done. Keeps the hilarious chorus so it's alright by me.

 

[BuffDog]

I don't mind it as a piece of music, I'm just not sure its rousing enough to be a sporting club song

 

[The Warlord]

Also, needs more Vicco Bias.

Didn't Adam Simpson already add a "chanting" bit based on North''s "Out we come, out we come, out we come to play" bit at the start of our song.

Fitting really, given since inception they've basically been a North spin off in Perth.

Kind of like those fake "laneways" they've built in Perth.

 

[The Warlord]

It sounds too much like a regular song, rather than a theme song

Ummmm, they do know Sunday Bloody Sunday is still under copyright yeah?

 

[rangatangtang]

Succinct and to the point, can't ask for much more than that.

What are your thought's on Spinal Tap's album Shark Sandwich?

I wasn't even a glint in my dad's eye when the s**t sandwich came out

 

[Scotland]

Are Birds of Tokyo the worst Australian band to ever hit the airway? I think yes. They’re horrid.

Someone once told me that every great band usually has one really great thing about them, so Birds of Tokyo must have a really great manager.

 

[Eternal Schism]

Are Birds of Tokyo the worst Australian band to ever hit the airway? I think yes. They’re horrid.

Nope, there is worse. I remember radio used to play this shite non-stop back in the day.

 

[Yojimbo]

The didge, the sticks, had me until they started singing, bit soft and cheesy.

 

[Beerfish]

Port Power like this.

 

[mellowyellow]

If only JJ Cale was still alive Would have been a memorable collaboration

 

[kaiserchief13]

It's terrible because it doesn't sound like a theme song.

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

My god it's bad give me the original over this version any day.

 

[Dazzler9]

I may as well post this here as well -

Could've just re-worked Baby Shark tbh

Eaaag-les won doo doo doo doo doo
Eaaag-les won doo doo doo doo doo

<insert opposition name> lost doo doo doo doo doo
<insert opposition name> lost doo doo doo doo doo

 

[RookiePick]

If we win this year there will be an entire age group of West Aussies conceived to this backing track.

Makes you think.

 

[Shane Heard]

Terrible stuff.

sounds like political party slogan tune

appalling new words added

 

[GoldStandard]

Won't be long before other clubs catch on, they'll be making millions in CD sales from this.

What the * is a CD? Dumb boomer.

 

[The Speaker]

How hard is it for football clubs to just find a random, catchy song from the early 1900s and change the lyrics?

 

[dmc333]

Not a lot of depth in the WCE marketing department it seems.

 

[Leon]

I kind of liked the Eagles old song, in a “so bad it’s good” sort of way.

 

[Leon]

Yes. Yes. Yes.

So much yes.
