I propose that we change the old Carlos Carlos Hernandez chant to Michael Michael McGlinchey, as Albert Riera's name didn't really work in it.

As a result, I'd also like to propose that we use Seven Nation Army for Albert Riera. "Ohhhhhhh Albert Riera".

I'm a fan of more NZ songs as chants - you know use our own identity, I'm sick of rehashing other clubs chants and using international mediocre songs of the 70's and 80's when we have plenty of our own mediocre songs.

If Riera is without a chant I propose Siera Leone from Coconut Rough:

At about 1:00

Beat Mcglinchey?

He'll come running, come running, come running at you!

Past Durante?

He'll come running, come running, come tackle you!

 Rierra Rierra, Rierra Rierra, Rierra Rierra.

We tried this last year and it didn't really work. Could always give it another go though.

Oh okay, must have missed it - too obvious to be original.

Why not sing Michael Jackson? The chorus from They Don't Care About Us?

"All I want to say is that, they don't really care about us" (rinse, repeat)

If everybody is patient enough to sing the verses and changing the lyrics to suit us, I'd write some, but you guys know more about the Nix than me, so..

Counting the Beat.

Thinking about you, Phoenix FC
Thinking about you, we are the "Elite"


Thinking about you (oooh oooh oooh oooooh oooh)
Phoenix FC (oooh oooh ooh oooooh oooh)


Thinking about just you and me, Phoenix FC, there ain't no place I'd rather be
La da de da, la da de da, la da de da, la da de da
La da de da, la da de da, la da de da, la da de da
La da de da, la da de da, la da de da, la da de da
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh!

Riera again

The La De Das how is the air up there (classic kiwi tune from the 60's) - its about 32 seconds in

Oh, everyday he'll pass we'll say
Hey!

Albert Riera's there.
Albert Riera's there.
Albert Riera's there.
Who are you? He just don't care.
Slide tackled on the ground.

A tough one I realise.

One edit: To start it the chant leader could shout out: 

"I'm thinking about you ... and NO-THING ELSE..."

For Tam Dimairo:

When the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie
That's amore
When the world seems to shine like you've had too much wine
That's amore
Bells will ring ting-a-ling-a-ling, ting-a-ling-a-ling
And you'll sing "Vita bella"
Hearts will play tippy-tippy-tay, tippy-tippy-tay
Like a gay tarantella

Becomes:

When Tam passes you by, you'll just look to the sky

That's Dimairo

When the cross flies right in, from out wide on the wing

That's Dimairo

Bells will ring ting-a-ling-a-ling, ting-a-ling-a-ling

And you will sing "Tam est bella"

Hearts will play tippy-tippy-tay, tippy-tippy-tay

Number 32 is our fella.

(or something)

Great improvement. Can't believe I didn't think of that.

The beauty of floating ideas up to be improved upon by the group.

Adelaide United have just adopted Wonderwall as their walk out tune.

What about something like:

Its a long way Jeffery Sarpong

Its a long way to go

To the Phoenix team we love

To the tune of It's a long way to Tipperary?

You could do the same thing to YMCA. (using the "Young man" part)

The AC Milan fans have a chant (I can never find a video of it though) that goes:

Ooooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh, ooh - ooh

Mi-lan

Ooooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh, ooh - ooh

Mi-lan

Ooooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh,

OOOH - OOOH - OH-OH-OH-OH

MI-LAN

La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la

Mi-lan

La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la

Mi-lan

La-la-la-la-la-la, LA-LA, LA ... LA... LA-LA

Mi-lan.

[Rpeat]

It's hard to type, but easy to demonstrate in person. Very easy to pick up.

We could replace the Mi-Lan's with "App-iah"s

Yes, I did. Open to suggestions on what other words could go into those songs.
