Does anyone feel that the club should have a song that gives it an identity that no one else has.
We have a global sensation in Ed Sheeran who is devoted to the club and a long life fan. I absolutely love when fans from another club belt out their song with pride. Surely with Ed and his list of hits we could adopt one to be out own?!
Personally I think "Perfect" fits perfectly, excuse the pun.
Imagine 29,000 belting that out every game. Goosebumps! Sometimes the slow and emotional songs is what gets the players pumped and fans up for it.
Maybe the club or Ed himself could choose 2 or 3 songs and the fans could even vote. But perfect would be sick!!
I found a love, for me Darling, just dive right in and follow my lead Well, I found a girl, beautiful and sweet Oh, I never knew you were the someone waiting for me 'Cause we were just kids when we fell in love Not knowing what it was I will not give you up this time But darling, just kiss me slow Your heart is all I own And in your eyes, you're holding mine Baby, I'm dancing in the dark With you between my arms Barefoot on the grass Listening to our favourite song When you said you looked a mess I whispered underneath my breath But you heard it Darling, you look perfect tonight
I'd love that, or indeed anything that becomes a proper anthem. Arsenal have recently adopted the 'North London Forever' bit, and Sunshine on Leith is incredible for Hibs.
Problem is, these really need to happen almost by accident as if you ever suggest an idea it'll never get widespread support because music tastes are so varied.
I'm not a fan of Ed's music but I 100% agree and it should be Perfect.
Songs take on a completely different persona/meaning in a football context with thousands singing it. It works as evidenced by the training room singing it with him and it means something now as was part of our story.
Must admit, whilst I'm not a huge fan of his music that would sound awesome belted out by a full stadium, like when the players sang it in the dressing room. Not sure why so many downarrows. It would definitely be unique to us.
IFK Göteborg in Sweden have one of the greatest club songs. It's soppy, passionate and the lyrics are from a local lad. Imagine creating anything close to this at Portman road!

I mean if the song meant anything it would still be sung today!! But it's not. Leeds have had marching on together for years, Liverpool, Everton, Birmingham, West Ham, Sunderland adopted Elvis and even bloody Norwich have a club song, a f****** sh*t one, but still have something that's theirs.
It's almost anthemic, but it's a little too complicated to hold together when belted out by 29,998 drunken fools. (I'm out too, but it's not the worst suggestion)

It’s been said a thousand times before but it should be “ The Story of the Blues”
It's properly poo though. There is a reason why it has never really taken off in over 50/60 years.
It's been sung this season and last. The main issue is not the song it's the fans.
Competing ideas about how/what support should be and singing three songs at once all don't help. There's even people slagging off BA now, but it should be EEJB.
It's proper. It's ours. It doesn't feature the word scrimmage.
What if we changed up the lyrics and you got a personal shout-out?
I found a club, for me Illy, just dive right in, and si-ng with glee I've found a team, in blue and white so neat Oh, I always knew you were the one that ca-n't be beat
'Cause we were just kids when we fell for Town Not knowing who Floriana was I will not give you up this time But Illy, just chant with pride Portman Road is where we reside And on the pitch, success will shine
Illy, we're singing in the stands With scarves held in our hands Players on the grass Listening to this victory song When Alf said we'd reach the top I whispered underneath my breath But you heard it Ipswich, you look perfect tonight
Let's be honest, it's still not a good fit. He just needs to make a song that is dedicated Ipswich or Suffolk, then I'm sure people would sing it if it is half decent.
