Owww. I want to play this game but my brain has frozen. Definitely need a new goal song and D.J.

 

The Athletic put it well ...

 

21. Vancouver Canucks: ‘Don’t You (Forget About Me)’ by Simple Minds (4.79)

Loading video

Lazerus: I nearly fell out of the press box upon hearing this at Rogers Arena this season. How is this a goal song? It’s got all the camp of Hall and Oates with none of the fun. It’d be better if every player celebrated every goal by raising a fist and freeze-framing, Judd Nelson-style.

Reader comments:

  • “Vancouver’s song is a prime example of their disarray.”
  • “As much as I like the Canucks’ goal song, I give it a bad grade because it sounds less like a celebration of a goal and more like a desperate plea for relevancy. Honestly baffled that anyone in the organization green-lit that one.”

Its such an anti-climax and not really a 'we're going to beat you' type of song. It's a momentum killer and fluff saying 'you know what we're kinda good too'. Rather than 'We seriously rock - we have the Quininator!!!!’

YES!!!!!!!!

 

These guys totally get it and so do you… Thank you for weighing in

On the contrary!! I am with you all the way but I think this is the 37th We Need a New Goal So g thread I’ve seen since CFF was born and I’ve yet to read a single reply from Canucks management suggesting they would even remotely consider our wishes

 

Side note: hard rock heavy metal hack guitarist and other instrumentalist dabbler here. What kinda stuff do you play?

I’m actually a worship leader… so I play guitar and I sing - both electric and acoustic…

 

My parents got me into Music when I was three years old playing cello and then I played bass guitar at 10 and then I went to Guitar at 13…

 

I enjoy most genres of music - A good song is a good song… However I can’t stand rap and I can’t stand most music that’s been produced over the last 20 years… Most of it sucks… it sounds castrated… The 90s were the best decade and the late 60s early 70s…I definitely gravitate towards overdriven guitar songs that hit you in the gut

team likes it, fans in the building get into it when the team is playing well, and those are literally the only two criteria. 

 

keep it til it loses its juice. holiday was absolute dogshit, until it wasn't, and then it was again.

Since this is like the 23rd different time I've posted in a thread like this for suggestions, I'm going to go with the ultimate suggestion this time.

Make it a different porno scene every time a Canuck scores.  You know, switch it up so that each goal shows a different encounter.  Doesn't have to show "happy ending"s, doesn't have to be hetero, doesn't even have to show nudity.  Just have the scene (visually censored, if they feel so inclined) playing on the jumbotron and the noises from it blaring out over the loudspeakers.

 

Nothing like a bit of "uh-uh-uh" to get the boys' blood movin' and wanting more.  :hurhur:

:hurhur:

The best was when each player had thier own song.

 

However, that Primus song I posted on the first page would be so good.

I know its a silly named track but the intro riff with the redneck sounding yodel would be hilarious right after a goal( I could picture the Canucks crowd doing the yodel while dancing and cheering)  and it would be very annoying for opposition teams/fans. A little like Chelsea Dagger...

I don't much care for the current one, but for the life of me can't recall past ones either. So I don't think I care enough to really want it changed or not. Lol. I will also say, my music tastes are either metal or rap. So I doubt they'd ever go with a song I like. It'll always be some soft rock type of song that feels better suited to being called pop. If I wanted change, they'd just change it to Imagine Dragons or Coldplay or something I just do not care for.

Speaking of yodel… It occurred to me at work that the Roger Daltry scream in the middle of Won’t Get Fooled Again” would be intense… just before he sings

”Meet the new boss same as the old boss”

 

could you  imagine having that scream every time the Canucks score - 

 

insane
