Gillz Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Thunderstruck - ac/dc http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-f1cwycSWq0 Just change "Thunder" to Villa. Would be awesome. Edit - could even make the guitar solo the music players walk out to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larscapaldi Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Im all for us having an anthem but come on, Johnny Cash?! Dont really want the Villa running out to cowboy music! would be the obvious choice though, seeing as it actually is our anthem already... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maloneyt Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 General: 6. Club anthem: I have been pushing for some time for the fans to choose the anthem...we will be right along side of your choice. I really can see this working! We just need to chose an anthem that the majority of fans like! either Ghost Riders or Stand by me, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDon Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 The Cash version of Ghost Riders won't work because the "yippee yi aaaay, yippee yi oooohhh" is the wrong way round to how we sing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or we could use one of the many other versions of it that don't alter the way it's meant to be sung? It's not like the club has a connection to Cash, or his version is the original (or even the best IMO). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villan69 Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 My missus (who thinks she is a bit of a songwriter on the quiet) is busy re-writing Robbie Williams' 'Feel' at the mo but in the meantime she has penned this little ditty...... (sung to daisy daisy - bloody hell...) Villa, Villa, Up with the claret and blue Villa, Villa Oh how we do love you You’re in our hearts and minds We wear our scarves with pride And we will score When the Lions roar It’s Villa for ever more not quite an anthem but first attemp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulanddonya Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Well I finally got 1 thing I've banged on about for 4 yrs - so might as well go for the couble. One anthem only should be considered The Bells Are Ringing No debate ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JulieB Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Thunderstruck - ac/dc http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-f1cwycSWq0 Just change "Thunder" to Villa. Would be awesome. Edit - could even make the guitar solo the music players walk out to. I tried to get a new anthem going a while ago with that clapping tune from one of the German clubs FC Cologne I think- we wrote words & everything but people argued over the choice, so it soon got dropped. The first part of this ACDC track would be awesome & save anyone learning words like you say chant "Villa" instead of Thunder!.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JulieB Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Stand by Me would be a really good choice. Has anyone adapted any words or anything? However I will support ANYTHING that is chosen...but for goodness sake let's make a decision & get everyone behind it with the club's support. Some of us have been banging on about how this is the ONE thing lacking at VP. If it's Bells are Ringing or Holtenders in the Sky then that's fine, let's just everyone & H & V etc make a choice & stick with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avillafan.com Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 I think this is a fantastic idea of trying to get this done. I think the best suggestion has defernatly got to be 'Stand by me' Other ideas could possibly be a song from a Villa artist. Maybe a Twang song or even something from Ash? Also, when do you plan on starting to get this going, and how do you plan on getting it going? After all talk is of course cheap! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maloneyt Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 thanks julie. not too sure that would make a good anthem, good chant, but probably not anthem. im all for Stand by me or ghostriders whichever one it may be. also agree with you there Julie, all the fansites and facebook group need to be agreed on one.
