You know what would be cool, Parra Anthem that we could Sing

[MarkInTheStands]

Yeah must be that inability to see the screen from the hill.

For those that don't know them

You'll Hear a tremendous roar go up as parra take the field
Just look at the blue and gold of the mighty eels
Their running out so fit and strong and kicking up their heals
If you want to see how footballs played the go and see the eels
Flick goes the ball from man to man
Their strong in the tackle and sure with their hands
They play it hard and fast that's the only way to win
And when they post a try you should hear the crowd all sing
[Chorus]
Good on ya parra your brave and bold.
Your mighty fit and True Blue
and worth your weight in gold.
And when we see the other side slow start to yield
We raise our voices to the sky and glorify the eels.

i don't think its a matter of not seeing the screen, I think they just don't bother to learn it, or don't stay back well after the siren has sounded to clap our boys off the field, win lose or draw.

As much as I hate to say it, but perhaps its not appealing to the younger generation. As much as tradition the song carries with it, it might be time for a new one

 

[MarkInTheStands]

Could get 3DG to cover it ?

We are the Eels, We're Parramatta, We're gettin' better, We're goin' UP UP UP"

 

[MarkInTheStands]

Arhh yes belly, God rest Col.

 

[Belly in Brisvegas]

Get 3DG to do the Jon English one and get Rabs up on stage to do the commentary part in the middle!!!

 

[eelaholic]

Oh the amount of times I've already bugged eric jnr to write something.....

Don't get me wrong, I love all the old songs, whether it be Col Duane or Johnny English but if the club wants to go for a new image, then why not give us something new to sing along with and be proud of

 

[Belly in Brisvegas]

So he's not keen or thinks it's a bit dicky?

I had an idea that we could shoot the video at Mad Monday.

 

[eelaholic]

umm i don't think he's taking the request seriously. Its not a bad idea though

The original, and easily the best

 

[Twizzle]

[eel4life]

EELAHOLIC you just have to keep saying it to him he would be perfect to write it especially with his love of music.

 

[eelaholic]

[Angry_eel]

[Nikki]

Run Piggy, Run Piggy, Run Run Run
Don't give the full back his fun fun fun
If you score a Tryyy, we'll give you a meat pie
So Run Piggy, Run Piggy, Run Run Run

Ooohh.. I love it!!!! This is what we need. Tunes that are known and we just adapt our own words to it. Or, coz erics a lazy bugger, all the brains on this forum get together and write the words to a song and he can add the music. Will be some hard core metal tho... lol.

In regards to the soccer. They have some awesome chants. I remember back to the Power days that I would laugh myself silly at some of their chant.. 'TODAY IS MONDAY...". Maybe we can steal some of those. Short and sweet.
