CP JIHAD - Change the damn goal song!!

[Lego Man]

just change it to Gangnam Style and be done with it.

[BigJim]

Red Solo Cup version from Western night was a great goal song...and I proofread this post three times before sending.

[saillias]

I like Rage Against the Machine but I don't think Sleep Now in the Fire is a good goal song or a hockey song.

[liamenator]

This is not a CP Jihad. Please do not abuse the term.

To give an idea of what other goal songs around the league are like.

I think the goal song is fine. The other songs need to be changed up, especially the powerplay song. Every time you go to the dome, you hear the same songs at the same times. Personally I don't even like that there's music, but since they feel they need it, switch it up please.

I've thought this would be quite suitable for the Flames and depending on the remix would definitely rock the dome.

Feuer frei!

[Bane]

Agreed, the current goal song sucks ass.

[handgroen]

let the riff play twice then cut to 0:45 for the chorus and the riff a couple times after and presto!

could probably even match the first note with the horn the first few times

[DuffMan]

I usually mute when the song starts playing. I hate it as much as Chicagos Chelsea Dagger, and foghorns.

[Max Cow Disease]

As a Rammstein fan, and in honour of the great Miikka Kiprusoff, I always thought sections of "Feuer Frei" would function admirably in this role.

Other than Chicago and Boston, those are all pretty bad. Especially Vancouver - why would they choose that awful song?

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.

The first 30 seconds of that would be a great goal song. Sign me up

What wrong with duck sauce?

[jlh2640]

I love it

The Flames also need to just abandon the fire themed songs. Why limit the choices, just pick up-tempo songs.

Popcorn by Hot Butter... Make it happen Flames!



But seriously if they used the techno remix from about 1:00 on it would be quite awesome.

If the Flames marketing strategy is to cater to 14 year old girls, that might also explain what we've seen with on ice decisions the past few years.
