TaylorB Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 After playing my play-off final and listening to the premier league anthem played before games and then fans chanting "we are going up" on my itunes, I got to thinking am I the only one who listens to music when playing the game? So I was wondering if any of you listen to music when playing? What songs and all the time or special occasions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koennn Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 I don't have special occasions or things of that sort. I mostly listen to Eric Clapton while playing FM Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

slipknot67 Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 Usually it's some death metal band or another on my i-tunes playing songs that'd probably result in a post of stars if I tried to name them on here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Svenc Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 All American-Rejects are always good Their new records is pretty ***** though. I mean, strictly speaking there was little to enjoy for anybody over 16 years of age on their previous records but their catchy hooklines. Boy meets girl, boy kisses girl, girl leaves boy and.... blech. This time those are almost universally just as shallow as any radio tune you'll ever get to hear by throwaway flavour of the month one-hit-wonders such as Wheatus, Third Eye Blind or Sugar Ray. Who are all since long forgotten for good reason. Didn't expect that to happen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

heathxxx Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 SI could actually release a compilation CD of "suitable" tracks to catch all those FM emotions.

BobMUFC08 Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 I never play songs during FM but if i did id have the music from Rocky-'Gonna fly now', for when im a huge underdog, and when playing a rival id have something like 'i predict a riot' by kaiser chiefs, if we won id also consider having 'lets dance to joy division' by the wombats and if its my players last game for the club i might play 'moving to new york' also by the wombats or 'away from here' by the enemy, at some point during the match i may also consider having 'good days bad days' by the kaiser chiefs depending on how things are going just to remind the players everyone has their bad days. Finally if we're playing on a monday night id have 'i dont like mondays' by the boomtown rats. I think ive put far to much thought into this:D Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
callum-douglas Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 I'l play some Rage Against The Machine, a bit of 'Wake Up' in the dressing room at half time if we look to be on the end of a drubbing, and the players need a grilling. If my Midfield Maestro needs some inspiration, a bit of 'Express Yourself' by NWA does the treat as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
