Title: Gold Coast's theme song
Post by: one-eyed on January 08, 2009, 10:45:00 PM: This is legit. The leading contender for the GC17 theme song as played on Ch 10 news tonight.

I guess Port and Freo will love it as it will get them off the bottom of the ladder of theme songs. :scream

Hopefully they play as crap as that song and we will be spared them belting it out after a win. I know I'd be embarrased to kroon along to that. :lol

Should have used colours such as

Light blue/yellow.
Green/White

OMG WP! Now there is a blast from the past. When I was a kid, I remember we used to sing our own english translated version of that song...

"Moscow, Moscow, If you do not like it here, you can stick it up your rear, oh hohohoho HEY!
Moscow, Moscow, We invaded Afghanistan, Carter is a naughty man, oh hohohoho HEY" :lol

Well it was a lot easier than trying to sing the Russian lyrics. lol Everyone would go..."MOSCOW, MOSCOW.....da da dada dada da, hm hm hmhm hm hm hm, oh hohohoho HEY!..... :lol

They do have many pools up there to keep clean lol.

The lyrics sounds like they've take bits from the Port and Freo songs :wallywink. "Fight fight fight until we take out the flag" sounds very much like Port's "we're never gonna stop stop stop until we're top top top". Tragic :rollin.

Ummm I don't think so. First time I've ever heard of it and that was only coming thru OER. I think most people on the Coast wouldnt' have heard of it either. Simply terrible. Up there with Port & Freo.

Post by: Fishfinger on January 22, 2009, 10:59:05 AM: Might be a chance for GC residents to revive the 1980s bumper sticker, Julz.
Just cut Oakley off the end so it reads "Up yours Ross".

Living in the Yarraville/Footscray area at that time those stickers were up everywhere. Even today I know a Doggies fan who still hates Oakley with a passion whenever his name is mentioned. Doggie fans never forgave Oakley for pushing the Footscray-Fitzroy failed merger.
