    There's a post on the Arsenal World site looking for new songs and I submitted one today! There already taking votes on the entries they've had, so I'm probably too late, but, what the heck! Just wondered what y'all think? Be gentle boys, I'm a Virgin!

    It's to the tune of Angels by Robbie Williams (Suitably uplifting and anthemic!!);

    We sit and watch
    the oth-er team comtemplate their fate
    and do they know
    the pace at which we go
    when we're movin for-ward
    coz we won't stop
    no salvation we will beat the rest
    so when you listen to this song
    you know it won't be long
    you can put us to the test
    because The Arsenal are best.

    Chorus
    And through it all we're
    following the gunners
    always front runners
    whether we win or lose
    and down the years
    wherever football takes us
    no other team will break us
    we will never fall, we won't forsake them
    we love The Arsenal the best

    Repeat Chorus
    ... we love the Arsenal the best
    we love the Arsenal the best....

    Club:
    Arsenal FC
    Nat'l Team:
    United States
    Here are my choices:

    MY TOP FOUR CHOICES FOR NEW SONGS ON THE ARSENAL SONGSHEET ARE:

    1) SONG NUMBER…
    SONG 7: Tune of “Jerusalem”

    And did those boots, of Wenger’s team
    Walk upon Highbury's turf so green
    And they did play, with great esteem
    The best football we've ever seen
    And with a cannon on our chest
    We play with heart, and mind, and zest
    And we are proud to be Ar-sen-al
    In victory through harmony


    2) SONG NUMBER…
    SONG 6: Tune of “New York, New York” by Frank Sinatra

    Start spreading the news, we're playing today
    We’ll always be a part of it, Arsenal Arsenal
    These Gooner red shoes, are longing to stray
    Right through the very heart of it - through Arsenal
    We always wake up in an Arsenal Wonderland
    And find we're king of the hill - top of the heap – A number 1

    These second rate teams, are melting away
    They just aint got the heart for it, at Arsenal
    If we can win it there, we’ll win it anywhere,
    It's up to you Arsenal Arsenal


    3) SONG NUMBER…
    SONG 13: Tune of “Auld Lang Syne”

    We are the boys from Highbury, we are The Arsenal,
    We hate the scum from White Hart Lane, we hate the Tottenham,

    We are the boys in red and white, we're Gooners one and all,
    And we're the pride of London town, we are The Arsenal.

    We’re Ar-sen-al my friends, we’re Ar-sen-al,
    We are the boys in red and white, we're Gooners one and all,


    4) SONG NUMBER… 14
    SONG 14 “London Calling” by The Clash (Original)

    London calling to the faraway towns
    Now that war is declared-and battle come down
    London calling to the underworld
    Come out of the cupboard, all you boys and girls
    London calling, now don’t look at us
    All that phoney beatlemania has bitten the dust
    London calling, see we ain’t got no swing
    ’cept for the ring of that truncheon thing

    Chorus
    The ice age is coming, the sun is zooming in
    Engines stop running and the wheat is growing thin
    A nuclear error, but I have no fear
    London is drowning-and I live by the river

    London calling to the imitation zone
    Forget it, brother, an’ go it alone
    London calling upon the zombies of death
    Quit holding out-and draw another breath
    London calling-and I don’t wanna shout
    But when we were talking-i saw you nodding out
    London calling, see we ain’t got no highs
    Except for that one with the yellowy eyes

    Chorus


    ***PLAYERS SONGS***

    MY CHOICE FOR THIERRY HENRY’S NEW SONG IS SONG NUMBER…

    SONG A: Tune of “First Noel/Born is the King”

    Thierry Henry, came to us from Turin
    Not too sure about playing up front or the wing
    Then Arsene had a word and he said he was keen
    To turn him into the best striker we've ever seen

    Henry, Henry, Henry, Henry, Born is the King of Highbury!


    MY CHOICE FOR ROBERT PIRES’ NEW SONG IS SONG NUMBER…

    SONG A: Tune of “Rupert the Bear”

    Robert, Robert Pires, everyone knows his name
    Robert, Robert Pires, everyone knows his name


    MY CHOICE FOR EDU’S NEW SONG IS SONG NUMBER…

    SONG A: Tune of “Hey Jude” by The Beatles

    Edu, don’t make it bad
    You take a bad pass and make it better
    Remember, you play for the Arsenal
    Then you can start to make it better
    Naa naa naa nanana naa nanana naa EEEDUUU


    MY CHOICE FOR ASHLEY COLE’S NEW SONG IS SONG NUMBER…

    SONG A: Tune of “Uptown Girl” by Billy Joel

    Ashley Cole, he loves the Arsenal with his heart and soul
    He never flinches when the tackles come in
    And then he goes back to defend our goal
    He’s Ashley Cole
    (Repeat)


    MY CHOICE FOR KOLO TOURE’S NEW SONG IS SONG NUMBER…

    SONG B: Theme of “The Flintstones”

    Kolo, Kolo Toure
    He’s the new boy to our family
    From the coast of Ivory
    A Gooner legend he will surely be
    (Repeat)
