What's the earliest chant or song at Goodison you can remember? And what's the best?

[deipnosophist]

Let's go fking mental.

for many singing that, the horse has bolted lol

 

[toffee-fellaini]

'' You are my Everton, my only Everton, you make me happy when skies are grey! ''

 

[paultheblue]

Those were the days my friend
We took the Stretford end
We took the Shed
The North Bank Highbury
We'd live the life we choose
We'd fight and never lose
We were the boys of Everton FC


My favourite has always been "We shall not be moved" sung properly it makes the hairs on the back of your neck stand on end.

 

[Whitebootman]

WE ALL AGREE DUNCAN McKENZIE IS MAGIC!

Late 70's.

 

[Joey66]

i'll have an E mate thanks

How times have changed!

 

[magicjuan]

First was Onwards Evertonians, favourites were late 70's random hoolie songs in the Park end, about one armed Babs and Blackbeard. The humour was a lotmore subtle then.

Oh, and 'we hate Bill Shankly and we hate St John.....' , goosepimples every time

 

[allanefc1]

"we love you Everton, we do, we love you Everton, we do, oh Everton we love you"

First song I remember singing in the Bullens

 

[bflefc]

Oh, Jimmy, Jimmy,
Jimmy, jimmy, Jimmy, Jimmy,
Shithouse Case

Who's up little boys,
Who's up little boys,
Mark, Mark Lawrenson,
Mark, Mark Lawrenson

(I sang that,to his face as a 10 or 11-year old as he came to do the 'celebrity' presentation at the end-of-season awards night for the junior team I played for.mimgot a,telling off, but it was worth it.

 

[bflefc]

My favourite was the one we used to sing in the spring of '85 and again two years later.

"Hand it o-ver,

hand it o-ver

Hand it over

Liv-er-pool....."

Goose pimples here. They really were the days, my friend. I'd give anything to turn that clock back. I get a bit emotional thinking back to them times.

 

[bflefc]

Oh Ian, Ian Rush,
has gone to Juventus,
And he won't play at Anfield any more (any more),

And we all think it's funny,
That Ian's took the money,
And he won't play at Anfield any more

Sadly, the song was rendered irrelevant quite quickly....

 

[Southall]

One that always sticks out for me was a game around christmas in 1991-92 against Chelsea at Goodison, I must have been 7 but its always stuck. We was winning 3 nil I think and in light of Graeme Souness' heart problems this little beaut his pumped out of the gwladys end...

Everton are flying,
Everton are supplying,
A wonderful way, to spend the day,
Watching Graeme Souness pass away

It was far more insensitive than that! The first two,lines were a lot different tha what you recall. I first heard it at City away on the last day on the season, circa 93 or 94 - can't remember exactly, but it was the final day of The Kop. We tonked City away, and I think The Sh1tэ lost at home to Norwich.

It was also the day of the infamous Battle of the Dry Bar around Piccaddilly Gardens....

 

[bigbadjeff]

In the 80s, to the tune of allouetta

Everton, oh we love Everton oh Everton oh we love Everton.

And we love our ' insert players name and repeat '

Then continue with team numbers.
