Lot of hate for “swords of a thousand men”.  Is that any hokier than Shout at a Bills game?  The fans have embraced it for I don’t know how many seasons now. 

To my ears its a bad song.

 I can take songs from many different genres.  I just do not want something that sounds bad.  Swords of a thousand men to me is bad.

I like the song but would rather have the Skyclad version

[In The Buff]

some truly awful selections the Sabres put out

Lately the only songs that seem appropriate are the Benny Hill theme song & the Muppet Show

The Muppet Show theme!  Now, THERE's something we can work with!

[Taro T]

Because they could use Kermit's voice for the introducing the Guest Star part but instead of a Guest Star like John Denver, it could be whoever scored the goal.  

Mr. Zach Benson!!  Yeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaa!!!

[Taro T]

Speaking of Muppets. Rosen with some great chances about 1 minute into the 2nd.  Couldn't bury any of them but at least he got the chances.

I like the cascada song by itself, I'm into some of that EDM though... For a goal song, yuck.

A few teams use the Ric Flair wooo after a goal is announced. The Kermit yea instead? That would be brilliant.

It's time to put on our gear.

It's time to light the light.

It's time to get things started on the Sabres show tonight!

To introduce our goal scorer, that's what I'm here to do,

it really makes me happy to introduce to you ...

Mr. Tage Thompson!!!!!   Yeeeeeeeaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!

It's the most sensational, inspirational, Sabresnational, this is what we call the Sabres Shhhhhhhooooooooooowwwwwwwwwww.

(Then have Ray and Biron make a little snide remark to each other like Statler and Waldorf always did.)

They could actually do something fun with that if they wanted to. Halloween video intro with players dressing up

[Slack_in_MA]

Not as a goal song but as a song to play after the horn sounds at the end of a win, I think this would have the crowd jumping and clapping.

Classic oldie, Slapshot movie connection, upbeat, happy... I think it's a winner  👍

My problem is that Evacuate the Dance Floor is the quintessential Cascada jam.  Anything else is just a tease of what could have been.

This would hit after a goal.

They should be playing Red Alert after the other team scores.

"Red Alert! Red Alert!

It's a catastrophe! 

But don't worry! Don't Panic!

Ain't nothing goin' on but history! 

But it's alright! Don't panic!

And the losing keeps on going on and on..."

You could use the second verse as-is:

Why do we always come here?

I guess we'll never know.

It's like a kind of torture,

To have to watch the show.

I want that as a third period song not as a goal song!  

PS tomorrow is the 200th anniversary of the first barge sent on the canal.

I am aware. But didn't want to miss a chance to somehow manifest it into reality.

[mjd1001]

Not sure if this was posted yet or not, but I just got an email from the Sabres with an offer for free tickets to a preseason game.  It said it was based on the email I gave when voting for the goal song.

There is a code to redeem apparently in the email.

I've always leaned toward the Looney Tunes theme

Actually, figured out what they SHOULD be using: Rush's 2112 - The Temples of Syrinx.

Can start at either "... and the meek shall inherit the earth" (which technically is the end of the 2112 Overture) OR when Geddy Lee is screeching "oh what a night ...."

Bonus points for ticking off Loaf fans by stealing a song from their local boys.

 

 

All the gifts of life are held within our walls.

You can tell from my avatar and screen name that I'm a big fan of the song, album, and band!  I would love it as a goal song, but I'm not sure the appeal would be universal enough.  I thought the list of options were pretty weak and went with the Metallica song by default, as it's the only one that I thought was close to being a good option.  I think the song they're using for the Goathead games is far better than any of the options offered for the Blue and Gold games.

There can only be one choice.  I think it was 2 seasons ago that I posted it in all 82 GDTs.

[LabattBlue]

Anyone else get an offer after picking a goal song for two free tix to Detroit home preseason game?

 

It allowed me to pick two tix in the 100 level free...no taxes or fees.

Song should definitely be “loser” by Beck.

Just bring back the Sabre Dance. BUT make it the Dave Edmunds Love Sculpture version.

Lots of good suggestions, but for many reasons this has got to be the right answer. 

I would also play the outro when the players come on to salute the fans.
