MODERATOR EDIT: I was looking at these two topics and we had two threads for discussions about new chants. We don't need two. :cheers:

This post is not going to get into what is right or wrong with LARS's gametime performance. I personally think we are improving and are A) trying to learn new and longer songs B) open minded enough to include a drum or two and C) actually attempting to go longer and get neighboring sections to join us.

Knowing this, I decided to remind people what it is that we actually do. Take some time to look it over and reflect. Here are the "Pro Galaxy" songs:

1) You Can Never Rest Easy – Original Tune
2) Galaxy, Galaxy, Who-O-O-Oh – Original Tune
3) Riot Squad We Are Here – Tune of Guiness Boys
4) Ooooh Galaxy (x3) Let’s go LA..GA LA XY! – Forza Korea
5) Come On LAaaaaaaaaa! – Original Chant
6) We All Cheer for the LA Galaxy, LA Galaxy LA Galaxy – Tune of Yellow Submarine
7) From the Heart of Downtown Naperville… etc – Marine Hymn
8) Join Us In A Song, We shall rise and Sing – Tune of A Few Good Men
9) Go! GA LA XY! GA LA XY! GA LA XY! – Tune of Eye of the Tiger
10) Come on LA! Come on LA! Come on LA! – Original chant (fast)
11) We are 138! We are 138! We ARRRRE 138! – Misfits
12) L.A.GA LA XY! World’s greatest Soccer Team! – Tune of Iron Man
13) LA (clap clap clap) Galaxy! (clap clap clap)
14) LA GALAXY! (clapclap clapclap clap)
15) (clap clap clapclapclap clapclapclapclap) LA!
16) BRILLIANT! – Instead of Ole during passes
17) Win/Score in a minute! – Guantanamera
18) Whoa! Whoa! LA Galaxy La Galaxy! L.A! L.A! – Aquired from Koreans
19) 2-Nil! (3-1, etc) – Tune of Aude Lang Sine
20) All we are saying, is give us a goal! – Tune of Give Peace a Chance
21) PLAYER SPECIFICS: Herculez!/GAAATOOO!/Albright Afterall!/Oi Oi yOI! etc

Keep in mind the ones we do the most often are the long COME ON LA and the "clapping" ones. These are truly the majority of what we do.

And now for the "In your face" songs:

1) Hey (blank) You suck/Nice Ass/improv word! – Standard
2) I hate the (blank), You hate the (blank), we hate the (blank) the (blank) sucks! – Standard
3) I’m Blind I’m Deaf I wanna be a Ref! – Standard
4) A Rope A tree Hang the Referee – Standard
5) Who’s your father? You’re a Bastard Referee! - Standard
6) Chim Chiminy Chim Cheroo, We hate The bastards in red/black/white and Blue! – Original chant
7) You Don’t Know What Your Doing!! – Standard
8) Na Na Na Na, Hey Hey, Goodbye! – Red card standard
9) (boxing count)/Drag him off the field/Harvest his organs! – Original chant
10) You Came a Long Way Just to Lose! – Tune of Whole World In His Hands
11) Who are ya!?! Who are ya?!? – standard
12) TEAM SPECIFIC: Aye Aye Aye Aye! We Hate The Chivas!/ G’s go to Heaven! Goats go to Hell! – Original chant
13) TEAM SPECIFIC: You’re Team is Shite/Deep in the Heart of Texas!/If it’s not Gonorhea it’s the Burn – Original
14) TEAM SPECIFIC: Old York is Better/New York Sucks! (substitute New England) – Original
15) He’s got the whole world in his ass! – Original chant against fat opponents
16) You go down like a Tijuana whore! A Tijuana Whore! A Tijuana Whore! – Tune of Yellow Submarine
17) Your guy’s faking, our guy’s hurt! – Original chant
18) How High/Wide do you want the goal? – FIFA Worldcup tune

These lists are far from complete. In fact, they can be merely viewed as "Greatest Hits". Of course, quite often the Riot Squad will IMPROVISE a one-off chant depending on the action on field.

When I look at it, I firmly believe that NO OTHER supporters' group in MLS has the repertoir we do. This was not "decided" on... it just happened naturally... organically. And here we are now.

Once again, take some time to reflect. Realize how much we energize the G's (and the HDC). Realize how much we get into our opponents' head. Finally, realize how much goddamn fun it all is.

Sincerely,
Tommy Mack

Oh my gosh! You're absolutely right. English is just filled with those nasty homonyms which can lead to so much confusion. All those years of doing a standard soccer chant without realizing we were really making a sexual reference. I feel so embarrassed.

This has led me to re-evaluate a number of other songs. To wit:

"Here we go, Here we go, Here we go".

Obviously, people could hear "here" as "hear" which would make the song non-sensical.

"Never Rest Easy"

People might mistake "Easy" for "Eazy" and think that we are disrespecting Eazy-E, the late member of the seminal gansta rap group N.W.A. I mean, just the very idea that Eazy-E should not rest in peace is deeply troubling to me.

"Galaxy, Galaxy, Oh Oh Oh Oh Ohoooo"

Without "L.A" appended to "Galaxy", people might think we are cheering for the Ford Galaxy, Ford's first mini-van built on a car body. As the proud driver of an Oldsmobile Silhouette, the Cadillac of mini-vans, I simply cannot support this. (And given our current infatuation with chants derrived from Guinness and Red Stripe commercials, it is not far-fetched to think that people might actually make this mistake.)




Look guys, I know you're new and I'm glad you're here, but please try to pay more attention to what has been going on before you make your points. Without that, you just make yourselves look silly.

So when Jamesey and Iamthatiam chant:

"Come on her face"

They're making a sexual inuendo?

I find it hard to believe that two nice young men like them would do such a thing.
