Oh when the saints is not a spurs song, just saying. Would be nice if you could get your own songs at times. That is all

 

[totsfan]

we were singing that song in the 60's before chanting became popular,and it's when the Spurs, not Saints

 

[Spurm]

well, its a new take on WUMming so i have to give credit for that. But otherwise

 

[CraigSFC]

I'm sure the original version is oh when the saints, and has been our song for the past 100 years, not my fault your fans aren't creative enough to make up your own songs

When the Saints Go Marching In
"When the Saints Go Marching In", often referred to as "The Saints", is an American gospel hymn that has taken on certain aspects of folk music. The precise origins of the song are not known. Though it originated as a Christian hymn, today people are more likely to hear it played by a jazz band. The song is sometimes confused with a similarly titled composition "When the Saints are Marching In" from 1896 by Katharine Purvis (lyrics) and James Milton Black (music).[1]

Swindon Town also sing "when the reds come steaming in". - So you might want to nicely ask them to get their own song, too.

This tune and often the words are often used as a popular theme or rallying song for a number of sports teams (see When The Saints Go Marching In in sport). It is the main anthem of Southampton F.C, also from wiki

 

[CraigSFC]

Spurs sing an Everton song, Southampton song, united song, millwall song, must be boring being a bale FC fan

 

[Spurm]

well in that case you should stop singing "you're not singing any more" as i'm pretty sure a few other clubs use that.

 

[Mahmoud Ahmadinejad]

So you admit to ripping it off

 

[CraigSFC]

No as that is not any clubs main anthem u idiot

 

[Spurlock]

Just enjoy your visit to the PL...make the most of it.

 

[Mahmoud Ahmadinejad]

Oh I see

It's only stealing when sports teams are involved

Someone tell the music industry not to bother with suing downloaders
