    Take Me Home Geno Ford

    So, as I mentioned in a thread about last year's ISU game, I wanted to try to get one or two songs put in for the students to sing. Well, in addition to YNWA at the beginning of the game (COME ON! It fits any Mid Major perfectly and we're not gonna snatch it up before Butler? But it's up to the Student Leadership at BU I guess haha) ANYWAY, I've re-written two songs: One is ALL AMERICAN and the other is from an Irish song. Let me know if you could incorporate them into the game with the students (and hopefully the whole arena eventually)

    1st: Geno Ford, Take Me Home
    Chorus Only: (Unless someone else wants to re-write a verse)
    Geno Ford! Take me home!
    To the place, I belong! On the Hilltop!
    In the Fieldhouse. Take me home! Geno Ford!

    I'm not sure about that line in between On the Hilltop and Geno Ford, any suggestions would be welcome! Something about 74 and ISU would be appropriate for a complete re-write.

    2nd: Fields of Bradley Park (Based on the Fields of Athenry)
    Chorus Only: (See above)
    Lowwww Lie the fields of Bradley Park!
    Where once, we watched, the small free squirrels run! (Let the free and the free squirrels run!)
    Our boys were on the run! (Let's go braves!) We had Stowell and Dick Verscase!
    It's so lonely round the fields of Bradley Park! (Repeat loudly and intimidatingly at ISU game and all other home games)

    What do y'all think?

    ... At the end, of the storm, there's a golden sky. And the sweet silver song of the lark. Walk on, through the wind, walk on, through the rain, though your dreams be tossed, and blown. Walk on, Walk on with hope in your hearts, and you'll never walk alone!

    Let the free and the free squirrels run could be replaced with... Let the Brave be the Brave again!

        Danke DC! Hopefully some of the students can implement them this year. Wish I had gone there for the SS rather than Valparaiso!

        OH! And for those of you who haven't heard, here's the videos to the tune:

        Country Road/Geno Ford Song:
        http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oN86d0CdgHQ

        Fields of Athenry/Fields of Bradley Park
        http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tiNsv...eature=related

        That's the original. Here's a version with my chants (in parenthesis) in the middle (Irish Soccer Supporters)

        http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0BFSN_1zzdM

        I personally don't like the clapping the football supporters do, I like the more intimidating voice Munster and the National Rugby team give it (Last three I promise!) Note, they usually don't do the parenthesis in the rugby versions.

        Another one I would like to try to re-write if the first two work is Swing Low Sweet Chariot as performed by the English fans (as much as I hate them)

            Who says they couldn't do it for BU Soccer as well?

              We've got a few we have been trying to impliment during soccer matches. here are some.

              Bradley Anthem
              Brad-ley, Brad-ley,
              Bradley, Bradley, Bradley,
              Lo lo lo lo
              Lo lo lo lo
              Lo lo lo lo lo lo lo
              GO BRAVES!

              Video but with Bradley instead of Fire

              Braves Go Marching In
              Oh when the braves (Oh when the Braves)
              Go marching in (go marching in)


              Oh when the Braves go marching in,
              Oh how I want to be in the Red Sea,
              When the Braves go marching in! (Repeat)

              Here We Go Song
              (Tune of Stars and Stripes Forever)
              Here we go, here we go, here we go
              Here we go, here we go, here we go
              Here we go, here we go, here we go
              Here we go, HERE WE GO!!

              Come on Braves
              (Tune of Yankee Doodle)
              Come on Braves,
              Let’s score a goal
              Its really very simple
              Put the ball into the net
              and we’ll go friggin’ mental
              La la la la la la la,
              La la la la la la la

              We Love You Bradley
              We Love you Bradley, We do
              We Love you Bradley, We do
              We Love you Bradley, We do
              OHHH Bradley we love you!!
              Video again Bradley instead of Arsenal

              Hopefully those at the soccer game friday will be able to hear these as we are printing off cheer sheets for the Red Sea to hopefully get students more involved by knowing what they will be yelling/singing

                Ahhh those are good! Have you thought about trying to get them implemented at basketball games as well? It seems to work pretty well for BYU What do you think of mine and the YNWA?

                Edit: PS, Man City does the We Love You chant loads better than ARSEnal hahahaha

                  YNWA is a decent idea but we would need them to play it on the loud speaker so i think that most of what we are trying to do is just singing by ourselves.
                  and PS Man Sh*tty fans dont have anything on the GOONERS!!

                    Might a certain new member get in contact with a certain PA announcer to solve this in the arena if students express interest? What do ya think Bobby?
                    PS Except for 8 points and 12 goals. It IS early I'll give you that. Oh, and Nasari
