Love it.

This isn't strictly a UB song, although they've obviously started singing it. I remember hearing it when we were down the divisions, pretty sure the original is on YouTube.

To the tune of Caledonia by Dougie MacLean.

Hope it catches on.

 

[Hamilcar_Barca]

Like it.

 

[siegeheroes13]

Bobby Parks signs it better

 

[Ray Von]

Like that.

 

[S English]

Not a UB's song

 

[BillyBoys]

Cracking wee tune and different to what we have in the stands, a lot slower as well.

 

[RossS1872]

Thats an old song. I loved listening to it years ago. Don't think it would catch on. With it being slower. Can barely sing along together with other tunes

 

[Galstonian Oranje]

Can see this one being played at Ibrox

Old song but a belter.

Yep, 2013 ish IIRC

Was a regularly belted out then and in subsequent year or two

I remember it too from late 90s onwards from time to time. The wee guys with the fuckin drum don’t have the credit for this one

 

[Kit_Bear]

Played the original song at my Grandads funeral. He lived in England and was too sick towards the end so was tough realising he wouldn’t see Scotland again. When he passed it felt suitable now that he could finally head home.

Hearing a Rangers edition has made me well up.

Hope it catches on, I’ll be belting this one out.

 

[Ten Ton Tony]

Fuckin hell man.

 

[AdiCR2]

Sometimes you hear songs and it’s an instant yep that’ll do. That’s one of them.

 

[TheFantasticNinetiesFox]

Glad they are taking this on. That is an anthem in the making.

50,000 in unison…make it happen.

 

[dublinbluenose]

One of my favourite rangers songs.was really poignant when we were going through the really tough times.

 

[westwoodrsc_gm]

Cracking tune. Penned by a poster on here I believe

 

[WearsideGallantFew]

Ibroxonia

 

[Faure there’s not a team]

Cracking wee tune and different to what we have in the stands, a lot slower as well.

Some of our fans will find a way to sing the whole thing in about 30 seconds flat.

 

[WBD]

The twitter post is infested with rats. Good song.

 

[JW1988]

Glad they are taking this on. That is an anthem in the making.

Our fans have to be some of the worst for singing songs in unison and in time (it’s not a race people) so something as wordy and lengthy as this is IMO never going to take off

Not too sure about this one lads.

Good effort all the same.

I take it the words were different in the 90’s?

Absolutely, the version then omitted most of the “verses” aspect that the drummer boys have shoehorned in

Had never heard it before tbh.

 

[Ron Swanson]

Good song, but…

 

[Dontwasteit!]

Cracking song.

If the UB can lead the way with the tempo of the song we’re on to a winner.

 

[ForzaLaudrup]

I like it and the more I hear it the more I like it.

Verse is a bit too wordy tbh I can see it being binned and the chorus being sung over and over

 

[Coop1872]

Next song idea - From Ibroxonia creators

EDIT: Any musical wizards on here that would fancy helping giving this a go? Original thread was received quite well, so I thought I would re-visit to see if there was still a consensus this would be a good match day chant? Feel free to provide honest feedback, it was the reason we...

It was the poster Robert California who doesn't appear to be on here anymore. He penned the lyrics and Bobby Parks recorded it.

Aww nice one....like this

Absolutely love love love it. From an increasingly old timer who is bored and fed up of the ‘tunes’ sang in bygone days…that disnt even mentioned our team. You know what I mean.

agreed. The chorus is decent enough, the rest is waffle and won't catch on

 

[JCL]

Definitely one to get going among the wider support. Hope it sticks this time around.

 

[L&D RSC]

Shocked that so many think this is a new song.

 

[AchtungBaby]

Needs a fanny with a drum and no musical talent hammering away incessantly imho.

 

[TheHammerJorgAlbertz11]

An absolute banger.

 

[Shengus Malengus]

Fuckin hell man.

Juke box jury awaits.

 

[Big D]

Some of our fans will find a way to sing the whole thing in about 30 seconds flat.

And get an FTP along with a mention of Bobby Sands in there.

 

[OrbistonRangers]

Choon.

 

[CLMGC]

Quite like that tbh. That would sound class with 50,000 of us belting it out.
