On the last song thread I suggested a few for the upcoming games as a way of voicing our disgust towards Team GB. No surrender No surrender No surrender to Team GB No surrender to Team GB You can shove the Olympics up your arse You can shove the Olympics up your arse You can shove the Olympics, Shove the Olympics Shove the Olympics up your arse! (Possibly followed by) And if Bale wants to play then f*** him off! Would be good if The Barry Horns can get these tunes sorted.  |

I've heard the chorus to Gruff Rhys's Y Brawd Houdini being sung before, it's a good football tune and I'd like to hear that more often. The chorus of Yma o Hyd was sung in Switzerland was good as well. both choruses would sound great if played by the Barry Horns. Y Brawd Houdini is a Meic Stevens song, later covered by the Super Furries, as I'm sure Gruff would like to acknowledge. |

On a related note, is there any way those of us who want to sing can apply to be in the same block as the Barry Horns?

You Are My Sunshine is a tune used by Swansea, Cardiff, Wrexham and Newport when their teams have been under threat - and can sound great if sung with gusto.
You are my Wales!
My only Wales!
You make me happy,
When skies are grey,
You never notice,
How much I love you,
So please don't take my Wales away.
Seems appropriate with the threat of Team GB hanging over us.
I also liked the version of the The Red Flag that was posted on an earlier thread, another good song of defiance.

'AND WE WERE SINGING HYMNS AND ARIAS LAND OF MY FATHERS AR HYD Y NOS' Could be sung over and over to great effect Yeah I mentioned that earlier but it would be better off at the Liberty as it's been adopted by Swansea and you might get beaten up if you sing it at the CCS. At the CCS I believe they love a bit of Men of Harlech (as do our Wrexham friends). tune). I've been reading a match report from Wales v Yugoslavia at Ninian Park in 1983. It said: "The rousing Welsh crowd sang Hymns And Arias throughout the game." I know a lot of people have dismissed it as a "rugby song" or a "Swansea song" but thirty years ago it was clearly also a Wales football song. |

I've not got a problem with 'Hymns and Arias' or anything that others might percieve to be a rugby song. Better some songs than no songs. I'd be delighted if the Barry Horns play too- might not be everyones cup of tea but better some sort of atmosphere than the kind of library- like shit that's put me off going to games in Cardiff for years now...

I know i hate the saes but thier lil band create a good atmosphere amongst them, the barry horns could do something similar annoying or not it would help the team and make it more enjoyable to go to the matches glad this thread has had so much interest.

These are my suggestions: Can easily be adapted for Aaron Ramsey I'm liking the Just Can't Get Enough proposition! It was brilliant last season down the Liberty when it got going! |

I know it was chanted in Swans matches last season and in all fairness sounded BRILLIANT, but it is a Rugby chant but good shout none the less I guess! |

Songs that should be sung at every Wales football international.
1.
Mae hen wlad fy nhadau yn annwyl i mi,
Gwlad beirdd a chantorion, enwogion o fri;
Ei gwrol ryfelwyr, gwladgarwyr tra mad,
Tros ryddid gollasant eu gwaed.
Gwlad, gwlad, pleidiol wyf i’m gwlad.
Tra mor yn fur i’r bur hoff bau,
O bydded i’r hen iaith barhau.
2.
Men of Harlech stop your dreaming
Can't you see their spear points gleaming
See their warrior pennants streaming
To this battlefield!
Men of Harlech stand ye steady
It cannot be ever said ye
For the battle were not ready
Stand and never yield!
From the hills rebounding
Let this song be sounding
Summon all at Cambria's call
The mighty force surrounding!
Men of Harlech on to glory
This will ever be your story
Keep these burning words before ye
Welshmen will not yield!
3. CALON LAN
Calon lân yn llawn daioni,
Tecach yw na’r lili dlos:
Dim ond calon lân all ganu –
Canu’r dydd a chanu’r nos.
4.
You're just too good to be true.
Can't take my eyes off you.
You'd be like Heaven to touch.
I wanna hold you so much.
At long last love has arrived
And I thank God I'm alive.
You're just too good to be true.
Can't take my eyes off you.
Pardon the way that I stare.
There's nothing else to compare.
The sight of you leaves me weak.
There are no words left to speak,
But if you feel like I feel,
Please let me know that it's real.
You're just too good to be true.
Can't take my eyes off you.
I love you, Wales!
And if it's quite alright,
I need you, Wales!
To warm a lonely night.
I love you, Wales!
Trust in me when I say:
Oh, pretty Wales!
Don't bring me down, I pray.
Oh, pretty Wales, now that I found you, stay
And let me love you, Wales.
Let me love you.....
5. YMA O HYD
Ry'n ni yma o hyd
Ry'n ni yma o hyd
Er gwaetha pawb a phopeth
Er gwaetha pawb a phopeth
Er gwaetha pawb a phopeth
Ry'n ni yma o hyd
Ry'n ni yma o hyd
Er gwaetha pawb a phopeth,
Er gwaetha pawb a phopeth
Er gwaetha pawb a phopeth
Ry'n ni yma o hyd.

When I’m with you Wales, I go out of my head
I just can’t get enough, I just can’t get enough
All the things you do to me and everything you said
I just can’t get enough, I just can’t get enough
We slip and slide as we fall in love
And I just can’t seem to get enough, oh.

We’re Welsh – and we’re proud of it
We’re Welsh – and we’re proud of it
