Title: The whole ?end of 3rd quarter song? debate seems to be coming to a head
Post by: Black Diamond Vol on October 05, 2023, 07:10:46 EDT
If we?re going to replace Friends in low places, what would be your choice? Personally I love Copperhead Road, but I?m guessing someone in the AD would get their panties in a bunch over the lyrical content (even though it?s basically just a modern retelling of Rocky Top). So if that?s off the table, what would be your next choice?

I would, especially "He never came back from Copperhead Road"
Works well with Rocky Top

I don?t know about singing along, but when those 5 beat drum fills hit, I can see the stadium coming down.  :dude:

As long as I'm complaining, I'm not a fan of sing alongs. But I'm not there so sing away.

As long as it's not Sweet Caroline.  :old:

YEah, we need a song that gets the crowd going

If I wanted to sing along, I would go to a Karaoke bar

I'm with you on that...don't understand how it became a stadium song and don't particularly care for it anyway.

The beer commercial that showed it being sung in bars nearly made me  :hurl: :hurl: :hurl: :hurl:

 :laugh:

I agree.  They are super lame.  I roll my eyes every time I hear "BLAME IT ALL ON MY ROOTS I SHOWED UP IN BOOOOTS!" at the end of the 3rd.   :rolleyes:  It FEELS like it's just a moment for all the drunks to let loose in unison.

If it just HAS to be a sing-a-long, we could do a lot worse than ?Jolene?. Does it have anything to do with football? No, but neither does Sweet Caroline. Performed by an East Tn icon (arguably THE East Tn icon), everybody knows the words, and it would sound really cool with 100k singing it in unison.

All I know is that every time we beat Alabama at home I want to hear Dixieland Delight?

Yes, but save it for bammer only. Just because it irritates the hell out of them. :dielaughing:

How many would actually know who Jones is??
Sterl the Pearl could drive a lawnmower around during the song ...
