I like that we get to cheer them out, don't think Ring of Fire would be the music for that moment needs something more rousing.

Mind you, every chance the FFA won't allow it.

I've always been a fan of "Thunderstruck" by AC/DC for run-out music, but that's just me!

Apparently I'm apathetic, but I couldn't care less.

I was talking about 'run-out' music, not the "Let's play 15 seconds of crap every time there's a stoppage" type music much favoured by rugby and cricket. Couldn't agree more, we'll be making more than enough noise during the games, we don't need music.

You will never hear a thing in Europe after a goal because the atmosphere, roar and chanting rising from the crowd. Yes for drums, yes for chanting but sorry we are not in a cricket game and not scoring 4s. Music before the game is ok but only the team related songs should be played. There is a lot of work to be done to create a passionate fan base however the Yellowfever is creating magic after what happened in auckland with hopeless knights fiasco.GSfan2007-08-28 22:17:57

The music they should run out to is the sound of YF singing.

I was pissed off when they played music during the pre season cup matches. I want to hear us singing our lungs out! The TEAM wants to hear us singing our lungs out! They play music at the cricket and rugby because it's a sad attempt to rile up a usually complacent and self consious crowd. We proved on Sunday we don't need it. Our chanting was half the entertainment for the curious spectator, lets not have the speakers drown us out. Though, I like the idea of adopting "Ring of Fire" as our song

Hey, wasn't that what we were singing as the teams came out for the second half ... or around about that time.  And the without the words in my case!  I don't know them and didn't matter!
 
It certainly sounded a lot like this ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=546viFB_WbY
 
Is that it?  Definite future!

I agree totally and whole-heartedly.  It follows that the only instrument I shall be ultilising during the next game will be my (humble) vocal chords!

Although there still is the possibility of Peggy Lee's "You give me fever".  Admittedly it is relevant in terms of subject matter, but is undoubtedly too mellow for the occasion

That clip is actually a pretty ropey version. I prefer this one by Japanese band the Ska Flames because the vocalist is dropping in "Phoenix City!" in all the right places:

You can also listen to (or buy) the original Skatalites version from the excellent Soul Jazz records site (it's on the Studio One Rockers album):

http://www.souljazzrecords.co.uk/releases/?id=176

Or you can buy a couple of different versions on iTunes (search on "Phoenix City"). I recommend either the 8 minute live freak out version by The (current) Skatalites, the version by Symarip or the version by Judge Dread.

But get Don McGlashan as pre game entertainment at the Backbencher.

Phoenix City is definately the preferred song now, and its definately going to be picked up and sung a lot more easily/loudly than Ring of Fire since not everyone knows the words to that.  When we were talking about 'Ring of Fire' it almost seemed more of a rugby 'over the stereo-system' song, we want someting that we can get 30000 people singing at the tops of their lungs. 
 
Phoenix City all the way.

"Phoenix City" - its a perfect chanting tune for the run on, and any other time the crowd goes wild! Its great enough to be the signature chant.

Just because the rugby always play some hideous "whoop whoop" sh*t when their players run out doesn't mean the right tune at the right time can't work beautifully at the football.

Phoenix City will always be the right tune at the right time! And you'll only be able to hear the first few bars before the crowd will be singing right over the top of it anyway.
