Villan4Life Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 http://www.avfc.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10265~4624745,00.html Can listen to each track on the link Villa are offering fans the chance to select our claret and blue music for the FA Cup semi-final. We face Liverpool in the showpiece last four encounter at Wembley on Sunday April 19, with the game kicking off at 3pm. The Reds defeated Blackburn to progress in a replay while we managed to get past the challenge of West Brom. As part of the matchday offerings, the FA have asked us to choose a song to play on the day of the semi-final. So what we've decided is to give you, our supporters, the opportunity to pick which track you want to hear most on the day. There is an eclectic mix, all with a real claret and blue favour: Paranoid (Black Sabbath) We Will Rock You (Queen) Theme from an Unmade Silent Movie (Norman "Hurricane" Smith) Aston Villa That's Who (The Villa Decree) Hi Ho Silver Lining (Jeff Beck) Escape (Craig Armstrong) Oh to be a Villan (Gary Nock) Ghost Riders in the Sky (Johnny Cash) The Bells are ringing for the Claret and Blue (Fans/Club remix) Villa You're the One (Paradise Forum) You can vote on which one you want by selecting below. Each song comes with the option to listen to the track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevo985 Posted April 10, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted April 10, 2015 Ugh. Can't we just sing it? This. I will vote, however, just to ensure it's not "Aston Villa That's Who" or the fans version of The bells that gets chosen! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butterfingers Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 Theme from an unmade silent movie End of thread. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ooh-Ah Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 (edited) Ghost Riders in the Sky would be alright if everyone sang the chorus at the same speed as the original, but the fans sing it a lot faster so it'd just sound rubbish. Hi Ho (ASTON VILLA) sounds good. For one line. I doubt anyone knows the words to the entire song. The fan songs are all wank. I think Theme From an Unmade Silent Movie is the best option because it's an instrumental. Either that or Black Sabbath. But let's be honest, it won't even make the TV coverage. "We know Liverpool have a song but we don't. Just play whatever." That should have been the club's response. The FA clearly only want this to happen because YNWA makes for good TV. Liverpool fans would have sang it anyway, and we have our own chants, so this kind of gimmick really pisses me off.

dAVe80 Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 I've voted for 'Oh to be a Villan' I must admit, when I first listened to that, I expected to hate it. I didn't. Even quite like it now. I'm with Mooney though, I vote for Spizz! Even though he's not listed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Condimentalist Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Well I hadn't been paying any attention to this and it turns out we'll be playing 'Aston Villa that's who', a song I'd never heard before. Having heard now it I feel culpable for not voting, it's humiliatingly bad, especially if it's supposed to be our version of YNWA. Hopefully we can drown it out on Sunday with some actual chants. Seriously who votes for that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dAVe80 Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 It's not as awful as I thought it would be, to be fair. It's pretty bad, but then most songs involving football are. If we get to the final, I think the club should go old school, and record a Cup Final song with the players! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddywhack Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 I quite like the song, but I don't really want it played at Wembley, especially as most fans don't know it. Actually, come to think of it, I couldn't give a toss. If we win they can play the Steptoe and Son theme tune for all I care. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
