To the tune of We will rock you (Queen)
Harry is a young man, great man Playing on the field, gonna take on the world some day He's got mud on his face, he plays with grace Kicking that ball all over the place
He will, he will rock you

Now we're talking! 😆🖒 Paradise/ Cardiff City would have been a great one for the home win over Ireland last month 😂 I'm trying to think of other GNR/ ACDC/ Scorpions/ Metallica songs (I'll draw the line at Slipknot 😂) for the younger players. Ampadu and Brooks have already got theirs but Wilson and Roberts deserve their own too and they should be epic! Bit of Slipknot be great ringing around the terraces mun . The song Dr Robert by The Beatles was made for Connor Roberts lol. or maybe 'He's running all night long' to tune of 'You shook me all night long' Maybe Whole Lotta Harry ? or maybe something for the whole team when we are determined to win and not let anyone or anything get in the way, a bit of 'Let the bodies hit the floor' by Drowning Pool (The part in the song where they start counting could have players names after by shirt number)

Here I/ we go again (Whitesnake) I was made for loving you (add Wales to the end of it) More than a feeling Two Tribes You're the best around Hero (Bonnie Tyler) - maybe too corny... 😝 We are the champions (Let's leave that until we reach another Euro semi at least 😂)....

How about, to the tune of Jesus Christ, Superstar :
David Brooks, Superstar With him in the side, Wales will go far
Just trying to keep the lyrics nice and simple !
Also, I have heard one for Ethan Ampadu doing the rounds, which is quite clever. Sung to the tune of Electric Avenue : "We're going to rock down to Ethan Ampadu And he will take us higher" Repeat ad nauseum
And whilst we're on the subject of songs, why of why, when people start singing "Can't Take my eyes off you" don't they sing "I love you Wales" and "it's quite all right I need you Wales" rather than "I love you baby" etc. It really bugs me!

Errr we already sing Calon Lân every game. I remember people trying to start it unsuccessfully Calon Lan usually gets a few renditions during the match, usually Wales away but agreed it could be louder. Seems half hearted sometimes. Men of Harlech with the words please. Cardiff City do it and sounded great against Fulham. I really dislike the 'dur, dur,dur' so bland. I would love to hear Myfanwy but appreciate that's a bit of a stretch!

Heard that one too, thought it was great and simple. There are a few good Ampadu ones doing the rounds
Its true, that you don't hear 'I love you baby/Wales' very often any more - due a come back.
Lets hope that Cardiff will be rocking vs Denmark and the Red Wall will be in good voice.

May be FAW should get Calon Lan, Myfanwy and Yma o hyd printed in programmes.

I know it's a childish folk song but what about Sosban fach? (Little saucepan).
It has a militaristic beat and you could change the words to "Cymru Fach".

Why don't we ever sing Yma O Hyd? It would sound so good.

Why don't we ever sing Yma O Hyd? It would sound so good. Now that is a song that stirs up the emotions, it would be brilliant. Probably only for Welsh speakers but it would probably epitomise the 'Together Stronger' ethos.

Yma O Hyd pipes up now and again in the Canton but never takes off. The more people that join in the more chance it will.

Like the Ethan Ampadu one. A bit different to your normal football chants.

Barry Horns have been responsible for getting many of our best songs going in recent years. We really need to forget about some of the old ones like Coleman’s dream and HRK and get a few new ones going. Also MoH with the words

Already got new Ampadu, Wilson & Brooks songs this Autumn, plus Tyler/Connor Roberts. Not a bad start.

Some good suggestions here, but to make them stick they have to be simple and everyone needs to know the words. Not sure that Yma o Hyd has that, lots of people know some of Calon Lan and that sometimes fades out, the Men of Harlech song is a good one and I think that could really take off, it’s a great tune and can fire up the imagination and passion.

We really need to forget about some of the old ones like Coleman’s dream and HRK and get a few new ones going. Also MoH with the words I agree, we need a few new go to songs (non player related) What about remixing Coleman had a dream or make a second verse to make it more relevant. Giggsy had a dream, Our attack would be supreme, He played the young guns and go 5 in attack, With Wayne in the back. With Wayne in the baaaaaack. What out Europe, we’re on our way back.

Frank sinatra-my way needs work only done it tonight but its an idea Wales, were still here we will never face the final curtain we`ll, we`ll sing it clear yma o hyd, of that were certain we’ve lived a life that's full we’ve travelled with each and every airway And all, all of this to watch the wales play Loses, we’ve had a few in fact, too much mention we sang as we always do And sang it all without exemption I planned each away day Each careful step along the byway And all, all of this to watch the wales play Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew When we lost our fair few But through it all, when there was doubt we ate it up and sang our hearts out we faced it all the red wall to watch the wales play we've loved, we've laughed and cried we’ve had our fill, our share of losing And now, as tears subside I find it all, all so amusing To think we did all that Hals Cruyff turn, on that Friday Oh Don't cross that f***ing ball Vokesy puts it away For what is a Welshman, what has he got? If not his Cymru, then he has naught To sing the songs of our wales And not the words of ones who kneel The record shows we’ve had our blows but we got To watch the wales play Not one that is easy to remember.

I'm sure we can make this Allez, Allez song work for us. My first attempt may need some work
We’re the famous Red Wall We go Home & Away
From Nanning to LA
We’ve been everywhere
Gary Speed & Chrisy Coleman
Together we are Stronger
We are loyal supporters
And we come from Cymru Wales
Allez, Allez, Allez,
