Not Osvaldo related but the Celtic "Come on you bhoys in green" is a top chant and we could have a similar one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qGm2oS0ulJs The Saints Come on you boys in red Hampshire's red and white oohhhh ohhh ohhh ohhhh ohhhh ooohhhh and continue appropriately.
He's semi-Italian, so surely we can come up with a "self preservation society" song? "Dani Osvaldo's our goal legend" Or something, another line or two, then stop singing and shout: "He's only supposed to score bloody good goals"
To The tune of hey baby (cant remember who we used this ong for a few seasons back but it was catchy) Heeeyyyyyyyyyyy.... ...heyyy Dani! (Ooh ah) I wanna know-ow-ow Will you score a goal? When you score and you walk away That is when the crowd will say you're the man to take us on Very soon we'll be number one (Repeat)
Never thought of that one. That's easily changed to: Oh Dani boy, The Saints, the Saints, are calling. From goal to goal and down the Itchen stand The Kingsland may be snoring til you score a goal And until then, our Rickie's still at hand. That works, but it's not exactly showing a lot of confidence in the lad.
Truth is, I was staring at the screen thinking it should be quite easy, when the last two lines forced their way into my head and wouldn't go away. In the end, I said sod it, and wrote them in. Danny Boy is probably a bit too drippy a song for a football crowd to sing anyway.
Yep, it is pretty good. That... here he comes... line, reminded me of the Monkees theme tune. Something like this: Here he comes... *Walkin' down that pitch Gets overhead kicks from Every goal he hits Hey Danni Osvaldo..! People say you monkey around But you're too busy scoring To put anybody down You're just trying to be friendly We come and watch you score and play We're the Itchen and Northam And we've got something to say Hey Danni Osvaldo..! something, something [can't think of a line] So you better get ready He's gonna come to your town..! Thank you Tommy Boyce and Bobby Hart for the majority of that. *You could have running, if you fancied.
When the ball hits the goal it's not Shearer or Cole it's Osvaldo! When the ball hits the net he makes all the girls wet that's OSVAAALDO! To the tune of that's amore by Dean Martin. Its funny and it's easy and it's simple, should suit the Northam down to the ground
Ha-ha. I am laughing out loud to that one. I can just hear it being sung now. Got anymore for the rest of the song..?
Oh, I think you underestimate a Saints crowd. please log in to view this image Or maybe I overestimate a Saints crowd..? please log in to view this image
I felt as if a reminder of the OP content was due, namely that it had to be a Stones song, but that is pure quality! PS I apologise for my use of Glaswegian slang but it really is pure quality Big Man!
