It’s been stolen from Newcastle who sing it to their Italian midfielder who is partial to a flutter.

Re: Koleosho song
Should sing his name to Loco in Acupulco by the Four Tops. I honestly see this oversight as the greatest missed opportunity of our season thus far.
Re: Koleosho song
There's not many imaginative chants these days, most are just generic songs that are sung by every club with the words changed slightly.

Re: Koleosho song
Who in turn stole it from Arsenal who sang it to Dani Ceballos and Arsenal probably stole it from some other club.
The vast majority of football chants are recycled.

Re: Koleosho song
How about a gentler one based on Suzanne Vega’s song Luka
My name is Luca
I run down the wing for you
I set up goals for us
And I score the odd one too
I can just hear the CFS singing this in an appropriate “sensitive balladeer” type tone

Re: Koleosho song
I’m wondering why Koleosho would be eating spaghetti and drinking Moretti ? He’s American through and through though I know his mum is part Italian hence why he’s played in their youth teams . Often wonder why he’s not in the USA set up , missed a chance their the yanks imo

Perhaps we should change it to ‘eats a hot dog drinks a draft bud, hates b Roverrs’

Re: Koleosho song
Maybe sing something to the tune of La Bamba. Sounds bloody stupid as it is.
Re: Koleosho song
Cotton eye Joe.
if it wasnt for luka koleosho, we'd have been relegated a long time ago,
Where did you come from where did you go, where did you come from koleosho.
And then the longside to erupt with line dancing .

Although Going Loco is also a missed opportunity
Re: Koleosho song
While we are on the subject of songs what's the one about 'we won the league at Ewood?' My advancing years & distance from the CFS mean I can only make out that bit - and something about 1987?

Re: Koleosho song
Something along the lines of
staying down for ever, is what those bastards said,
in 1987 they said our club was dead,
we won the league at Ewood,
now everywhere we go,
we'll sing this song forever,
to let those bastards know,
ole ole ole ole
Something like that anyway

Re: Koleosho song
I don't get some posters' fascination for slow speed. As an elderly rocker I like my tunes fast, minimum 7/8 time but 16/16 time is even betterRoosterbooster wrote: ↑Mon Dec 04, 2023 12:29 pmIt's so dreary

Only song that isn't sung at 100mph, but it's yet another one that's just ripped off from other clubs.Burnley1989 wrote: ↑Mon Dec 04, 2023 12:23 pmSomething along the lines of

Re: Koleosho song
The 'no one likes us' song makes me cringe. Ending with... 'we are Burnley, super Burnley from the North'. North!?? Not very specific is it.
Re: Koleosho song
That Cotton eye joe one is a belter
For me it’d fit the tune better if you did away with Luca and elongated Koleosho, then changed relegated with down. Got me singing it along to it on Spotify to make it fit like a lemon
if it wasnt for kol-e-osho, we'd have been down a long time ago,

It's a Northerners versus Southerners thing. Exact geography not required. We are Northern Monkeys.

Think we’ve got a good mix of different songs/chants that are unique to Burnley and ripped off common ones. NNN, in our Lancashire home, etc, etc.
Was even better last year when we also had Nathan Tella Baby and the Anass son was sung more often.

Re: Koleosho song
Appreciate I've got skin in the game but the syllables alone scare me in the Cotton Eye Joe chant, as awesome as it is.
First line needs a simpler re-work.

Re: Koleosho song
First part works, its the second that doesn't. Trying to fit 12 syllables into the original 9 is where it falls down. That's before the speed chanters massacre it.
If it hadnt been for Cotton-Eyed-Joe, I'd be married a long time ago
1--1---2-----1-----1---------3--------II-------1--1---2-------1---1----1----2
if it wasnt for koleosho, we'd have been relegated a long time ago,
1--1---2-----1------4----II----1-----1------1--------4------1---1-----1----2
How about
'If it hadn't been for Koleosho, we'd be beaten a long time ago.'
