Tiger Theme Song

[minge]

Yeh I know the words and tune.

BUT..............what was the piece of music it was set to.

My brother in law and I are going nuts trying to remember.

And dont tell me it was from a roller door ad.

 

[Steel Dragon]

Isnt it a slight reworking of eye of the tiger?

 

[minge]

Just so were talking about the same song.

Here come the tigers wearing black and gold
Stout hearted men
All fit and bold
Watch them make a break and see them score a try

etc etc

 

[minge]

The eye of the tiger is the current them song.

I need a few old balmain boys to let us know.

Im talking Laurie Nicholls vintage.

Im pretty sure its a take off of an Italian opera song/classical piece of music - the original words definitely arent in english though.

 

[Tiger Hawk]

I believe it's Toreador Song from the opera Carmen, originally in French.

Thats it!

Thanks guys............firstly for the info, secondly for the lyrics and thirdly for the audio track.

We never would have got it without your help.

recently its been:

"Put your hands up for the Tigers...
I love this team"

possibly the worst idea by the club EVER

 

[themanonthehill]

Worst idea ever ?
Worse than Nick Graham ?
Worse than Sam Harris
Worse than playing f**king games at Homebush ?
Worse than John Morris ?

And that song is composed by George Bizet. I know this because it was on Young Einsteins when they visit oz and it sh*ts my young one no end when i sing the Balmain song whilst Young Einsteins is on

I agree.

Terrible song.

The quicker they get rid of that the better! :x

 

[themanonthehill]

Can we start by getting rid of the inept cu9t at fullback

 

[hrundi99]

Can we start by getting rid of the inept "supporters"?

 

[themanonthehill]

Ooh it's on Little Einsteins now.
Here come the tigers ....
Bless Playhouse Disney

 

[Mr_Ugly]

... that's not even close to being the Wests theme song!
