Song for our awesome foursome
« on: November 18, 2016, 06:20:54 pm »
To the tune of Your Are My Sunshine, a tried and tested favourite over the years:

Bob-by Fir-min-o, Phil-ippe Cou-tinh-o, Ad-am La-llan-a, Sad-i-o Man-é
You'll never know, boys, how much we love you.
Oh, oh, oh, please don't take our strikeforce away. (Last line might need a little tinkering with, but at least the Mané rhymes with away)

What do you reckon? And please don't anyone piss on my bonfire, which has been fuelled by a couple of glasses of red wine, by telling me it's been suggested already.

Just thought on, play rhymes with Mané, so there has to be a more positive last line in there somewhere.

For example: It's just a pleasure to watch you all play.

Don't like it for a few reasons, sorry.

First line doesn't scan, there's no need for a song for the front 4 - particularly using a tune that's so regularly used and we won't always use that front 4.

If you think of songs of this type you might think "best midfield in the world" but that covered rotation by naming all the senior players for those positions.

Also, you might very occasionally get a song to catch on through a forum but more often that's really not where they come from.
Balotelli, Falcao, Cavani...

I'll be shocked if it's anyone other Etoo. Etoo or no-one. Simples.

In fact, I'll do you all a favor and ban myself from the January transfer window forum if we get anyone other than Etoo.

HH, the fact you think the first line doesn't scan, although I may have to disagree with you over that point, is of little relevance. This is a song that would hopefully be belted out by 50,000 Liverpool fans around Anfield, and it's not an entry for the National Poetry Competition. Does every Liverpool song scan perfectly? I think not.

And the reason we're currently sat atop the PL is down, in no small part, to the teamwork, work rate, ingenuity and, perhaps more importantly, the goals from these four players, our new attacking unit. So I think they're very much entitled to a song of their own, to show them how much their input so far this season is appreciated by us all. And I believe the fact that they gel so well together as a foursome within the larger team negates your rather fatuous "best midfield in the world" reference.

As for your third point, someone on RAWK has honoured you with the mantle 'Scribe', so please, in future, think before you write.

Anyway, back to the wine.

That's the tune of the Luis Garcia song, we need something more original  :-\
I do like how you've actually tried to get a song going for them, though

they fly back quick from Rio ,
To terrorise the pack ....."

And then

We'll drive them all bananas,
go crying to their mamas ,
'Cos Liverpool are back ..."
