OT: Brooklyn Team Entrance Song

[BroadwayJay*]

As many of you are aware, I'm very excited for the Brooklyn move.

I was talking about it with my wife and as she is only interested in things like "what song the team skates out to" and "whether there will be children dancers like at the Nets" I went with the former discussion.

Her vote:



My NYC-based vote:



Any suggestions from you guys?

Edit: looks like you fixed it

Fix the youtube links Jay. All you need is the part of the link that comes after the equals sign, not the whole link.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-u6DvRyyKGU would be the -u6DvRyyKGU between the yt and /yt brackets.

Thanks bud.

I was about to comment that but you beat me to it. I thought it was because I'm on my amazingly advanced iphone 4.

EUROPE? Seriously?

The Final Countdown could possibly be the worst song of all time

 

[PK Cronin]

There are a lot of songs I'd be happy with, but here are a few off the top of my head.





Overdone, but still is good.


A remix of this song, with just the hook would be cool.


But sadly, this will be the song they actually use.

Roger Luce " This song goes out to you guys in the upper bowl"

 

[Strummergas]

AC/DC. Every. Game.

 

[Cavonnier]

The Final Countdown? Only if it's this version:

The Final Countdown? Only if it's this version:

that is outstanding.

A few suggestions that could suit a punk Brooklyn crowd:

The Gossip - Hott Date

Arcade Fire - Ready to Start (surprised nobody brought this one up)

Generation X - Ready Steady Go

The Replacements - I Will Dare

And I'd play this every time Martin StLouis or Brad Marchand took a penalty...



Giroux: "Don't Stand So Close To Me" The Police
Ryan Malone: "Cocaine" Eric Clapton

Pat Kane:

Can you quantify that or is that just your "opinion"?

The Final Countdown? Only if it's this version:

That was magical.

The synth player is the heart and soul of that band.

I think she was making fun of hockey fans and the type of music she perceives that we listen to.

It was her idea of a joke.

My suggestion was completely serious.

Who are some of the most famous BK artists and songs about Brooklyn?

 

[startainfection*]

So many beastie boys songs are great for this except fight for your right, no sleep till Brooklyn and sabotage

 

[SLAPSHOT723]

I'm going to go ahead and say if it's not Beastie Boys I'm going to be very upset.

 

[JZCislesHockey]

Jay-Z maybe? That'd be cool.

I'm with ya...

Jay-Z maybe? That'd be cool.

Thought the same thing

 

[TommytheCat]

how about this ...rage against the machine ...killing in the name ... specifically for rag games

Yes, that it would.

 

[Felix Unger]

The Brooklyn rock scene just doesn't fit hockey intro music too well. I mean, who wants to hear The National or The Hold Steady or TV On the Radio before a hockey game?

Maybe the Yeah Yeah Yeahs? Heads Will Roll? (Which would suit the Oberlin alum population of Brooklyn, which as Brooklynites know, is sizeable.)

I think they were from Queens, but the Ramones might be a nice fit.

Otherwise, any song that has the word "sh**" in it. For Garth.
