I gotta weigh in on this. Panic at the Disco seems like it would be the easiest to implement(Popular) so I would start there. (And it's a good song) I'm not a part of any SG (Yet.),but I make sure to sing along.
The Panic song I picked (and would make the most sense) is not a popular song, though. I'd love to hear the south end singing "Let's kill tonight. Kill tonight. Show them all you're not the ordinary type. Lets kill tonight!" but how likely is it that many other people will know the song?
Seems the most popular compared to some other choices, but I understand it's still not "big". A Disney song would be alright, it would be easier to get the soccer moms involved , but there should be a balance (and transition) between Cheery and Hardcore. (and wouldn't Disney chants make more sense for a team in California?)
saw this on the supporters thread. Multiple teams use it, not that it matters, but I would love to hear it at an RSL game: [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_6FBfAQ-NDE"]Depeche Mode - Just Can't Get Enough (Remastered Video) - YouTube[/ame] Warnings 1 - this will get stuck in your head far too easily 2 - god the 80's were awful in terms of clothing choices
I can't see a better choice than God Only Knows. Amazing love song, something a lot of people should know. Why couldn't it work, and work well?
my only question: who sings the "instrumental" part? and how? would a "God Only Knows What I'd Be Without You" banner get frowned upon at the RioT? GOKWIBWY. Not as clean as YNWA but its something.
To pass some time [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cpV0ygkmhP4"]fernando torres song with lyrics - YouTube[/ame] using this song/chant for an RSL players... The KB Song His armband prove he was a red KB! KB! Salt Lake bound is what it read KB! KB! He's got the hair and skill to fright He is your nightmare for the night Kyle Beckerman Salt Lake's number 5! na na na... Kyle Beckerman Salt Lake's number 5!
There is a project in the works to get a couple of these songs and film them just like the Puma Hardchorus videos. If you are interested DM me and we'll get you involved. The hope would not only be to have these spread like wildfire through the RSL social networks, but to potentially have them shown before/after the games at the RioT to help foment singing during the game. Let me know if you are interested.
Always thought it would be fun to do a version of this, but insert "Olave"[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LLTIQg_bjFI&feature=fvsr"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LLTIQg_bjFI&feature=fvsr[/ame]
[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_lJrkeMQhHc"]OMC - How Bizarre - YouTube[/ame] Just replace "How Bizzare" with "RSL" It's perfect! and LBR could be the accompaniment.

The way NFG breaks out the "I am the man" part towards the end, with the clapping, is awesome. Change some of the lyrics. IE-the glory of love to "the glory of the club"......
same song sans the annoying singer: [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7fZjb5u0EVU&feature=related"]Dean Martin - Glory Of Love - YouTube[/ame]
So all we really needed all along was to have an RSL fan/drummer in a famous punk band write a song for the pitch? Sure it's posted somewhere else on the site, but we should probably each watch it a dozen times a day for the rest of the week.
