Yes people singing 'da da da' sends a shiver down my spine too ?

 

[BotleyOx]

I thought it was oh oh oh they sang

 

[Oldham]

It’s not even a lyric! Just part of the tune ?

 

[Jonny G]

Been so long we've forgotten!! Seven weeks on Sat? and only once since 28 April!

 

[Oldham]

Even though it’s a stirring old song, every other football and rugby team play it at their games as well so I really can’t relate it to OUFC

 

[WuTang]

It had it's moment, let it die. It's no club anthem or linked to us in anyway. Been overplayed at the Kassam and sometimes kills a good post-win atmosphere. Fans start singing to the players and then that blasts over it all

Not been overplayed this season.?

True Maybe that's why some people miss it

I don't.... I never liked it, the lyrics don't flow,they're are not easy to remember, ... and it is, as @Oldham rightly points out, 'used' by other football clubs as well as many egg-chasers too

Mary Hopkins( or Sandi Shaw) -Those Were The Days, ( London road end favourite for quite a few years ), along with 'When Your Smiling' should be contenders for 'our' club song IMO... both have lyrics that flow and that are easy to remember...and both were London Road end standards for some years/seasons in the 70s (& beyond)

Sandi Shaw, incidentally, is a resident of Oxfordshire, she lives in Southwest Oxon

 

[mariokempes]

Think she lives in Marcham
Do you think she ever pops into the Abingdon branch of shoezone ?
I was going to say Freeman Hardy and Willis but that would give my age away

Would support that if it was actually sung, sweet Caroline is embarrassing ?

[werthersoriginal]

I like it! Look forward to hearing it again. When we only used to lose occasionally, I liked it when they played Dont Stop Believing

whoosed?

... because The Abingdon Shoezone closed down?
