carlings Posted November 17, 2014 Report Share Posted November 17, 2014 Don't think I could bring myself to hold a "we're proud of you" scarf up at our games at the moment. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benzema23 Posted November 17, 2014 Report Share Posted November 17, 2014 (edited) I don't get people complaining about SHT. What do they want instead? They find it cringe worthy but what wouldn't be?  Actually, maybe it should be through the wire by Kanye West or some 50 cent song, since they almost died and then became successful, which is what we are hoping for in terms of our football? /sarcasm Edited November 17, 2014 by benzema23 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n i k o Posted November 17, 2014 Report Share Posted November 17, 2014 I've supported every move in the past by both Yarraside and the Melburnians and think they do a great job. But SHT is one thing I've always felt very strongly against. I think it's one of the most difficult songs to sing loudly because of the constant tonal changes. Even when the melburnians sung it yesterday it wasn't very audible. I still try to sing it for support but most people in my section I know for a fact just don't like it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AaronAV11 Posted November 17, 2014 Report Share Posted November 17, 2014 I like SHT, but if it is going to be replaced then it has to be by wonderwall. That song is amazing and a perfect walk out song Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â How the fuck do the tards sing 'Marvin Gaye - Stand By Me' then? No tonal changes there? Are you saying that we are worse singers than them? Ban him now!

It doesn't sound good. Â 2. Most of the NT and its leaders hate the song and refuse to sing it. Â 3. In fact SHT is much more popular amongst Heart fans than Stand By Me is amongst the Mongs.

hedaik Posted November 18, 2014 Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 (edited) Stand By Me just reminds me of RACV ads (which ruined the link to one of my favourite childhood movies with the same name) Edited November 18, 2014 by hedaik 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HeartMillsy29 Posted November 18, 2014 Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 Stand By Me just reminds me of RACV ads (which ruined the link to one of my favourite childhood movies with the same name) Likewise SHT reminds me of the old Smiths chips ads, which means I really can't get into it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jw1739 Posted November 18, 2014 Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 SHT doesn't work for a whole lot of reasons. Â At the moment without a home win in sight (last one was 1st March 2014) and many of us still smarting from the re-badging and an overdose of sky blue, I doubt that the City supporters are particularly "happy together." Â Second, it's too fast. Very difficult for even one section of the crowd to keep up with the music, and when you add to that the acoustic lag around the ground everyone is out of sync. Â Third it needs editing (slow down and shorten) so it fits the time and place. ATM it fades away into nothing - just like the team does. Â I would say that what Melburnians are doing now - starting that clapping chant shortly before KO and keeping it going for as long as it is required, is absolutely bloody brilliant - has far more chance of catching on around the ground than any song ever will do unless that song is a golden oldie that everyone already knows. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cadete Posted November 18, 2014 Report Share Posted November 18, 2014  Stand By Me just reminds me of RACV ads (which ruined the link to one of my favourite childhood movies with the same name) It is so shit, I laugh everytime I hear it. Might as well play "Why can't we be friends"  There were a fair few who used to suggest it all the time as a Heart song back in the day... thank god  it never gained any traction.

Baka1 Posted November 18, 2014 Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 (edited) We are Melbourne We are city should come up on screens before games to get all people involved. Cheesy yes but will work better than SHT Edited November 18, 2014 by Baka1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But this is not a personal attack on anyone, this is about the song and not your vocal abilities. Out of all the songs out there we need something that stirs people when it's sung, and it needs to be able to be sung loudly. You should be able to have 20 people singing it and it should be well heard. And honest opinion is with all of Yarraside and melburnians singing SHT it never sounds loud at all.
