fair play! I love the way he got the names in!

"Go on Kildare the time is right...."

Not bad, not bad at all.

im welling up here......touching

Its stuck in my head now!!

cannot stop playing it

Another song for the lads,

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YTBSCOY7nGI


After a couple of listens the lyrical genius becomes more and more clear,

"We'll get oul Sam Maguire and we'll fill him full of beer,
we'll hug him and we'll love him and we'll bring him back next year"

Thats Whizz O Rourke from Rathangan singing that

Those kind of songs are the only thing I don't like about being a Kildare supporter, like jaysus lads, do people really listen to that type of music? Saying that I would gladly hear them every time I switch on KFM if we win a couple of more games this year.

I agree Stanley. Most of them are cringeworthy but they're all part of it I suppose.

Hopefully we'll finally win the bloody thing this year and someone will persuade Christy Moore to write a new version of Joxer Goes To Stuttgart. Something like Dowling Goes To The Big Smoke.

Now that sounds like a song I would like to hear, hope Christy is reading this.

Could do with a bit of bass and a more prominent rhythm

Could be worse, on Friday a group from Dublin, the merry ploughmen sent a song into George hook proclaiming Sam was coming home to Dublin. George played it on Monday while laughing his ass off. A cruel world it surely is.

New found respect for George there so.


Be great if Christy came out with something alright, be great to be able to have us all belting along to the chorus of "Johnny goes to Croker" at the homecoming in September...

Apparently Christy was lined up for a song after 98 if we'd won. Ah well. There's always this year.

How's about something like ...

"How's it goin' there everybody,
From Cork, New York, Dundalk, Gortahawk & Glenamaddy,
Here we are in the Co. Kildare,
It's a long long time since Sam was here,
There's the Curragh and the Hill of Allen ....."

Fear an geata good verse- any more?!!

Had to tweak it a little...

"How's it goin' there everybody,
From Cork, New York, Dundalk, Gortahawk & Glenamaddy,
Here we are in the Co. Kildare,
It's a long long time since Sam was here,
There's the Curragh and K Club
and Hill of Allen and the National Stud,
James Kavanagh, Daryl Flynn,
Glen Ryan and Johnny Finn,
Greats from past and present everywhere,
If it's All-Stars you want,
You should get to Kildare

this is to the air of christy moores "cliffs of dooneen"

you may travel far far from your own native home
far away from the rebels, not to far from athlone,
but of all the fine counties that sam did repair,
this year he's going back..............to the county kildare!!

I couldn't get to the end of the videos to be honest. Not as good as earlier songs in my opinion

Great work right there!

Verse 2

Everybody wants to be King
Even if it means jumping in the ring
Some head off to exotic places
But in Conleth's Park there's familiar faces
Pat Lynch and Billy Dunne
Are optimistic, but nothings won
A cousin of mine knows Mick Foley
A cousin of hers fancies Roli
Summer comes around each year
Hopes are high, we're full of cheer
Get the breakfast down in Toughers
Before we all head off to Croker

Need a new title and chorus. Any takers ? Oh Sam Maguire ?

Great work there lads. I'm going to get nothing done at work over the next 2 days singing those songs to myself.
