Great post, all joking aside, music is one of the few things that can attach an emotion or feelings to something, someone or somewhere and take you to it immediately. There are some songs I love for various reasons and others I hate passionately. The song "These Dreams" by Heart was an ex girlfriend of mines favourite song and I still think about her when I hear it and feel positive. Tom Waites "Downtown Train" always makes me feel good as it reminds me of Saturday nights out when I was in my 20s and early 30s. But I despise the Annie Lennox song "No More I Love Yous" because of losing people close to me when that was in the charts. If it comes on the radio now, I change channels.

In relation to SAFC, I don't think there's any particular song that I associate with us beyond the obvious, "Wise Men Say", "Paint Your Wagon" and "Ready To Go". But each is special in its own way. "Ready To Go" is probably more associated with us than anything else and likely how aot of people have heard of it. "Paint Your Wagon" raises a smile, especially after a good result. But I'd say most that I still get shivers when I think about and hear us singing it at Wembley after the play off wins. I'm privileged to have been there twice and been part of us singing it after we won. The fact that FIFA even had a video of us singing it on their official twitter page after we beat Wycombe and acknowledged us shows just how special moments like that are.

Evening, genuinely that is a very moving post.

Remember however, we were singing it together. Always here.
