I will post in there with some song ideas and stuff once I get off work. Thanks for posting it and great name for it haha. Hopefully more people pitch some ideas.
IMHO, I'd say have that thread be a talking point for concrete solutions to how to really get the section all on one accord with improving and stepping its game up. Leave the song requests for this thread.
Alright man, not much organization is really going on due to the thread being moved. I'll post some song ideas here right now. [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iSL1osoptzs"]YouTube - Allez Allez Sankt Pauli[/ame] allez (x6 i believe) Columbus Oh Columbus Oh columbuuuuusss I feel it would be a very simple song for people to catch on to and has a ton of clapping and isn't very long. [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=69AvNm8zubo"]YouTube - The Proclaimers 500 Miles (live 8)[/ame] i would walk 500 miles And i would walk 500 more Just to be the man who walks a 1000 miles To fall down at your door We love you we love you columbussss or what ever for that part at 1:53 would those be bad at all? I really like the 500 miles one with the clapping over the head.
We gonna rock down to Nordecke for the Crew . . . And then we'll take it higher. [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UA5MtAmT24g"]YouTube - Electric Avenue - Eddy Grant (HQ Audio)[/ame]
haha I love that idea man. Could we throw some woe oh something idk after the higher so we could have something in after the higher then restarting?
This would be sweet with Columbus Crew, or Massive Columbus put in. I know it's not original, but it would be cool to see! [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FXLSXVWrA8A"]YouTube - Emerald City Supporters Sky of Blue, Sea of Green[/ame]
Even though it's not original, I do like the idea man. I think it would be cool. What do you think the lyrics would be though lol.
I was singing this in my head yesterday fix what ever but for that chant Seattle uses we could possibly sing. We are massive alez allez allez allez allez allez allez allez allez We are massive allez part repeated Then for the clap above our heads part I was thinking A sea black a sea of gold oh Columbus here we go (x2) Maybe a sky of black lol idk what do you guys think?
You should view this one. It gives you better perspective. [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jygcbG3XvWE"]YouTube - Emerald City Supporters - Sky of Blue, Sea of Green[/ame]
Screw you for suggesting anything Seattle. The only kind of plastic I like to use is for my water bottles after a soccer match.
I knew someone would rip me one about that. They aren't the only fans who do a song to Yellow Submarine though, here is one from Newcastle. [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7SJnnfsgcdo"]YouTube - Newcastle United fans to the tune of yellow submarine.[/ame] Something about the rhythm of that song makes a great chant.
We all cheer for a yellow soccer team is something thats been done for a long time at Crew games. It just doesn't go past that. We could do like in this video and follow up the "We all cheer for a yellow soccer team"s with "we all"s like in the Newcastle video posted or we could just do it using "Oh"s like this: [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wyL6eov6JrQ"]YouTube - Bristol City Vs Cardiff, bounce around the ground[/ame]
If you've noticed in those clips, no more than a few words being song or simple oohhhhs/lo's, whatever. Why complicate with too many words that the general masses won't get? K.I.S.S. method. It works.
We're already doing one based on Karma Chameleon - though it still hasn't quite caught on yet. Come on x5 - Columbus Crew Columbus Crew Columbus Crew Winning would be easy if your colors were like our teams' Black and Gold Black and Gold How about some ridiculous internet memes that have a relatively catchy chorus/melody? [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DbYtqAWDF2U"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DbYtqAWDF2U[/ame] [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C5ViK2n1oog"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C5ViK2n1oog[/ame] [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oavMtUWDBTM"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eNxygsLGHSQ[/ame] Or the chorus from "First of the Gang to Die" [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rbe3E28-g1o&feature=player_embedded"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zrfb6njdmwA[/ame] And as much as I want to not post it - this could work. *Everyone* knows this song. [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oHg5SJYRHA0&feature=related"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oHg5SJYRHA0&feature=related[/ame]
Lol, how sad it is to call that anyone with "shoplifter" in their handle is gonna ref a Mozzer or Smiths song, lol... Personally I like the Karma Chameleon chant, it struck me as highly original and classy.
I cant remember who came up with the first line, but one day I was singing it and my buddy instantly filled in the 2nd line. We laughed and all started singing it at the pub that next game and it caught on.

You know what might be a song that most people know that would be funny to do that to: Tom's Diner. Just the beginning, obviously. [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-26hsZqwveA"]YouTube - Susanne Vega - Tom's Diner[/ame] Also, if people email(nerdcorp at the gmail) or pm me the songs, I'll lay them out in a digest size book during the offseason.
if this can happen with a yute.............. [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aq2J146riTI&feature=player_embedded"]YouTube - Green Brigade Junior Capo[/ame]
Yes? [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zFb3J5w8IWs"]YouTube - Partizan Belgrade Fans[/ame] If someone could make up words to this, I think it would be simple just a bunch of oles. Pretty awesome none the less. [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C6vGZ4Evk3Y"]YouTube - Allen Iverson interacts with his cheering Besiktas fans in Turkey[/ame] Hahaha I love this. [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JzqKch7cjzg"]YouTube - League Cup Final 2009. Celtic Supporters "Glasgow Celtic Champions"[/ame] To Thoma the video you posted would be kind of hard to get all the words in I think. We could always do the video right there it's pretty much the same thing all we would have to say is Columbus Crew Champions Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh I'm a huge Celtic supporter so I would love doing that haha.
