Cup final song?

I could have done one but i think its a little too late now. I did think about one using samples from the truly awful "Bring it on home" but I'm not sure the club or Mr Balfe would have endorsed such work

Red N Blues

 

Woke up cold on Saturday,
I'm looking tired and feeling quite sick,
I felt like there was something missing in my day to day life,
So I quickly opened the wardrobe,
Pulled out some jeans and a Caley Thistle Shirt that seemed clean,
Topped it off with a hat n scarf in red and blue
Now I feel like part of the team,
And I thought these clothes really suit me.

Hey, I put  my red and blues on,
And suddenly everything is right,
I said, hey, I put my red and blues on and everybody's smiling,
It's so inviting,
Oh, short on money,
But long on time,
Slowly strolling in the sweet sunshine,
And I'm running late,
And I don't need an excuse,
'Cause I'm wearing my red and blues,

Woke up late  on Sunday,
And I'm seeing stars as I'm rubbing my eyes,
And I felt like there was one day missing,
As I focused on the time,
And I made my way to the kitchen,
But I had to stop from the shock of what I found,
A room full of all off my friends all dancing round and round,
And I thought hello my red and blues
Bye bye them blues.

Hey, I put my red and blues on,
And suddenly everything is right,
I said, hey, I put my red and blues on and everybody's smiling,
It's so inviting,
Oh, short on money,
But long on time,
Slowly strolling in the sweet sunshine,
And I'm running late,
And I don't need an excuse,
'Cause I'm wearing my red and blue.

Take me wandering through these streets,
Where bright lights and angels meet,
Stone to stone they take me on,
I'm walking till' the break of dawn. [x2]

Hey, I put my red and blues on,
And suddenly everything is right,
I said, hey, I put my red and blues and everybody's smiling,
It's so inviting,
Oh, short on money,
But long on time,
Slowly strolling in the sweet sunshine,
And I'm running late,
And I don't need an excuse,
'Cause I'm wearing my red and blues.

Hey, I put my red and blues on,
And suddenly everything is right,
I said, hey, I put my red and blues on and everybody's smiling,
It's so inviting,
Oh, short on money,
But long on time,
Slowly strolling in the sweet sunshine,
And I'm running late,
And I don't need an excuse,
'Cause I'm wearing my red and blues

Take me wandering through these streets

David Sutherland has a link on Facebook from soundcloud which has our cup final song "Scenes Of Red and Blue".

Just had a listen to it and its great :ictscarf:. No disrespect to Toby Michaels but imo, this one is better than his league cup final song :-).

Written and recorded by yours truly and my band Tale of two cities.

 

This song is the result of a bet I lost after we beat Celtic. I promised I would deliver a cup final song if we made it to the final. Released an acoustic demo and it received such acclaim that I felt it was only right to put together a finished version. 

 

It may not be everyones cup of tea, but I wrote it myself. Very easy to write about something you either know a lot about or care a lot about and in my case it fits both those categories. All of my band are ICT fans and the song was also produced by ICT fans too...basically its for the fans.

Been in South America this last year, been to quite a few games and its quite a different match day experience. Anyway was thinking of songs which could easily been transferred to ICT. Alot of the songs are love songs for the clubs which are 3-4 mins long. The only short chant type one was this - follow the link

 

 

Hope that link works.

 

Basically the rough translation into English would be

 

Ole ole ole, ole ole ole ola

ole ole ole, every season i love you more

Ohhh Caley Thistle

Its a feeling

I can not stop

 

repeat over and over

Im happy to repeat it over and over at hampden on my own but it would be nice if other joined me

 

PS - love the 'scenes of red and blue'

It's defo growing on me. Love the player mentions and reckon on the day we could all sing the chorusy bit at the end "we are caley, super caley and our colours are red and blue". Makes sense that those with ability and passion for the club do it. Totes thanks for all the effort made and pretty cool to hear the background story to it.
