CP JIHAD - Change the damn goal song!! - Calgarypuck Forums - The Unofficial Calgary Flames Fan Community

I absolutely HATE the current goal song. It makes me almost dread my team scoring. Who's with me?!

shermanator · 04-20-2013, 10:07 AM

I will now create a counter jihad to keep the goal song. Love it...

Igster · 04-20-2013, 10:11 AM

I'm with you. The goal suck sucks. Change it please. Anything but the current song and that stupid disco inferno.

Wronskian · 04-20-2013, 10:12 AM

Agreed. The whole soundtrack at the Dome needs a serious re-vamping. Its absolutely horrible.

Zarley · 04-20-2013, 10:17 AM

It's not the best, but it's better than that awful ACDC song that they used to have.

I agree with this, with all if the changes in the locker room I think it is time for a complete overhaul. I really enjoy the cowboy video during some of the goals though.

Mylar disliked song is the 'gut check' montage they play in the third. I secretly believe that it makes the other teams play harder and gives the Flames bad mojo.

A cool remix of Firestarter by Prodigy?

Don't jihads require polls?

Amazingly, I forgot we could make polls.

Can a mod add one in?

No it isn't. I would rather hear them play two flatulant cows having a fart battle than Duck Sauce. It is sad and embarrassing.

Okay, doesn't a jihad require an external poll?

burn_baby_burn · 04-20-2013, 10:56 AM

I don't like it. But my 14 year old daughter loves it. If that is the demographic the Flames are trying to please. I say job well done.

I'm just glad they've decreased the numetal/bro rock at the Dome.

MisterJoji · 04-20-2013, 11:02 AM

Change the PP song while you're at it. Sooooo sick of Wolfmother.

I actually like the song itself, but as a goal song it's weak.

I understand making a song that gives crowd energy and has a simple chant or sounds fans could do, but Flames could do so much better. They have lacked in that department for as long as I can remember. The goal song should keep fan excitement flowing.

It was suggested in the previous thread, but Sleep Now in the Fire by Rage Against the Machine would be a great candidate. Has everything you want in a goal song. High energy, a simple chant, and team identity related.

If someone from Flames audio department is viewing this, I hope they strongly consider that, or use that as a reference of what to look for in a new goal song. Flames have a great entrance song, as well excellent victory song. They just need to be consistent with the goal song now.

Hmm, see I think that Rage song is terrible as a goal song. But it's not an easy task coming up with a good goal song...everyone has different tastes.

I'd prefer something like Ring of Fire by Social Distortion.

Hemi-Cuda · 04-20-2013, 11:20 AM

once again i make the suggestion for the perfect goal song (if you want a fire theme)

Song's not bad, but the video is entirely inappropriate, lol.

Don't care what it's changed to, but as I said in another thread, the novelty wore off after about 4 games, but that was over 2 years ago. Not sure who it is supposed to appeal to.

Nothing wrong with the AC/DC song, it was a lot more relevant that an electronica voice saying "Barbara Streisand". Heard "Burn this City" played last night; was that an old goal song (circa 2001?) or was that the theme song for an opening montage in/around that era? A remixed version of that may work, and remixed versions of a lot of songs may work.

But, anything is better then that "fabulosly flamboyant" song they have now.
