kidlewis Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 To dream the impossible dream To fight the unbeatable foe To bear with unbearable sorrow To run where the brave dare not go To right the unrightable wrong To love pure and chaste from afar To try when your arms are too weary To reach the unreachable star This is my quest To follow that star No matter how hopeless No matter how far To fight for the right Without question or pause To be willing to march into Hell For a heavenly cause And I know if I'll only be true To this glorious quest That my heart will lie peaceful and calm When I'm laid to my rest And the world will be better for this That one man, scorned and covered with scars Still strove with his last ounce of courage To reach the unreachable star Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidlewis Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 I have added that chant into the mix Black Country, Someone on the other chants thread came up with an absolutely great idea The Impossible Dream To dream the impossible dream To fight the unbeatable foe To bear with unbearable sorrow To run where the brave dare not go To right the unrightable wrong To love pure and chaste from afar To try when your arms are too weary To reach the unreachable star This is my quest To follow that star No matter how hopeless No matter how far To fight for the right Without question or pause To be willing to march into Hell For a heavenly cause And I know if I'll only be true To this glorious quest That my heart will lie peaceful and calm When I'm laid to my rest And the world will be better for this That one man, scorned and covered with scars Still strove with his last ounce of courage To reach the unreachable star No need to change it, I think a YouTube version of some villa fans singing it will do. Or someone in a Villa shirt doing karaoke whilst cutting to footage of some goals would get it around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sellyoakvilla Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 Right, Wigan away. Who's going? We shall get them going on the coach and in the pub before the game then sing them going to the ground. We'll try get them noticed by everyone and get them sang in the JJB then eventually sang at Villa Park once everybody notices them. Join in if you're there, don't be shy.

The pub just over the other side of the car park from the ground is the place to be. Oh and don't sing on the coach, you'll get some right funny looks from the blanket brigade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't care about the blanket brigade, as long as it gets noticed by a few more people then that's all that matters Will you be going? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reo-Coker! Reo-Coker! Reo-Coker! Nice one. Maybe swap Manchester for Birmingham though as, although it's within the lyrics we're nowhere near Manchester when we're playing Chelsea and Aston Villa is in Birmingham ;-) If I'm not mistaken there's the lyric of "Panic on the streets of Birmingham" anyway?

gort Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 For the North Stand: 'Holte End give us a song' 'Can you hear the Holte End sing?...' For the Holte: 'North Stand give us a song' 'Trinity give us a song' Witton give us a song' 'Can you hear the North Stand sing?...' All very simple but perfect to get the other stands involved and to maybe spark the Holte into life when the game is a bit dull Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sellyoakvilla Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 Correct me if I'm mistaken but isn't "Can you hear the _____ sing" for opposition fans? Home fans singing to home fans would be irrational. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gort Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 I've heard several teams do it, Chelsea, Spurs, Albion, their main singing ends singing about the other stand to get them involved. If the Holte sang 'North Stand give us a song' i'm sure it would get them up singing and same if the North mocked the Holte Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at the home game with Bolton a few years ago, completely dead until those few blokes in the box in the corner between the Trinity and Holte started singing 'Can you hear the Holte End sing?'. It got all the Holte up off their arses and singing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJA1703 Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 from another forum; To the same tune as the "ten green bottles/German Bombers" "You can't beat Laursen in the air, No you can't beat Laursen in the air, No you can't beat Laursen, Can't beat Laursen Can't beat Laursen in the air "You can't beat Davies in the air, No you can't beat Davies in the air, No you can't beat Davies, Can't beat Davies Can't beat Davies in the air "You can't beat Cuellar in the air, No you can't beat Cuellar in the air, No you can't beat Cuellar, Can't beat Cuellar Can't beat Cuellar in the air "You can't beat Carew in the air, No you can't beat Carew in the air, No you can't beat Carew, Can't beat Carew Can't beat Carew in the air" WE HAVE TO GET THAT GOING TOMORROW That would be brilliant and would get a real atmosphere going. Great effort... Could we add.. "You can't beat Hare in the air, No you can't beat Hare in the air, No you can't beat Hare, Can't beat Hare Can't beat Hare in the air" This could test out the ones who have had a few to many beers before the game.. bit of a tongue twister!!! Love this song and think it would work really well. Easy to learn, which is good for us, and everyone knows the tune. Just think we need to add a second verse to each player, where the 'RAF from England Shot One Down' part of the song is, we jus go onto the next player, which sounds wrong.
