I hope you can appreciate as a young New Orleans Sainter in the 80s, this was inherently and grimly ironic...
"I see the playoffs?" - really, no one else can...
I'm not sure it's something to re-work for Etihad games and a totally different sport, but ya know, in for a penny...

You can listen to Bristle tell you Carlton are still a massive chance at 28 points down with two minutes to go, you can listen to him tell you all about Lorne, or you can watch a monkey on a pushbike...I know which I prefer...

Has anybody on this forum ever visited St. Kilda on the outskirts of Adelaide? - adjectives, or perhaps pejoratives is a better term - like desolate, bleak, lonely, grim, windswept, definitely come to mind.
It is like visiting the Carnival of Lost Souls.
Visited there recently and all I can say is the place really gave me the heebee jeebies. Apart from a few seagulls the place was completely deserted.
A refinery far off into the distance and muddy waves with a patch of scrub makes up the scenery of this coastline.
It is probably a lot more like the St Kilda in Scotland than ours is.
On entering St Kilda a sign warns you that as a visitor to the "community" your car rego will photographed and logged in case of any illicit activity while in the area.
Another faded barely readable graffited over sign warns visitors that snakes inhabit the area.

Frank Turner - I still believe
has the great line "I still believe (I still believe) in the Saints"
would make a great St Kilda song, reworded a bit.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sZ-D4jmkUiQ&ob=av2e
Also the song Something Good by the Utah Saints in which they chant the band name as part of the song. A poular Rave song from the early 90s.

The Lucksmiths "Silver Friends"
I never thought that it could happen quite so strictly
But strictly speaking we were usually speaking strictly
I returned her library books
And she returned my dirty looks
The hardest thing I’ve ever done was breaking up
But my broken heart turned out to be a paper cut
It’s been a month but what a month it’s been
My life’s turned back to front it seems
And my friends are round tonight
And dear old St Kilda
And I’m red and black and white
And my friends are silver
I took a short walk on the longest of weekends
For me to figure out we were going to be friends
It’s like the best thing that could have happened to me
Happened to me
And my friends are round tonight
And dear old St Kilda
And I’m red and black and white
And my friends are silver
I’ve only known them for a while
But they’re so familiar
Cool Melbourne band who split up a couple of years back...

Mick Thomas from Weddings Parties Anything is a saints supporter and many WPA songs mention the Saints. !st one I can think of "Under the Clocks" which goes;
Is there anywhere you'd rather be than with me at the MCG
And if the Saints get done again by Christ I couldn't care.....
Though when he sings it live he sometimes changes the 2nd line to ;
When the Saints kick #rse again.....
Another song is "Decent cup of coffee" which from memory goes;
And I can see you in the morning, I will meet you at the front gate of
the local footy ground you said "It's hardly Moorabbin"
I said "Don't be a bore, no one plays down there no more"
There are probably others also that I can't recall at the moment.

I can't believe that I'm admitting this, but my girlfriend at the time dragged me to see Bush (honest) the night before the 97 GF - when they finished the first set instead of calling for an encore the crowd sang a really loud version of 'When The Saints Go Marching In' (it was at the casino somewhere and the place was decked out in red, white and black streamers and balloons) - Bush must have thought they were getting called back for an encore so they came back on stage, stood there confused for a bit and then just sorta shrugged and started playing along, vocals and everything. So I saw Bush sing our theme song the night before the GF, so random...samuraisaint wrote:saw Freddy Negro's band The F*ck F*cks do a rowsing rendition of When The Saints Go Marching In at the Espy on the eve of the 97 finals -

Re: Just a tad bored - Songs with St.Kilda or Saints n them
Nick Cave's song "Straight to you" has the lyrics
"Heaven has denied us it's kingdom"
'The saints are drunk howling at the moon"
Not sure if Nick is a true believer, however i can relate to feelings of being "denied heaven" & after drowning sorrows am "drunk howling at the moon"....especially after a few recent games at the G late in September

Re: Just a tad bored - Songs with St.Kilda or Saints n them
I know I'm reviving a very old thread here but when listening to the new Underground Lovers album I noticed the opening track is called "St Kilda Regret". And yes, it's about the saints.
The opening lyrics are something I'm sure we all can relate to, "I love my team, but not after what they've done to me".
