The song (traditionally associated with Liverpool FC) has been adopted by Celtic Not quite true. The song, from the musical Carousel, was first heard on the terraces of Celtic Football Club in the 1950's. When Gerry & The Pacemakers recorded it in the 1960's, it used to be played regularly before matches at Anfield. They forgot to play it one week but the crowd sang it anyway ; it's been adopted ever since. - -- Barry - -- Barry Whiting barry@urquell.freeserve.co.uk ====================================== The Official Seven-Seas Web Page. www.bunnymenlist.com ====================================== ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 8 Feb 2003 00:33:00 -0000 From: "Noose Boy" Subject: seven-seas-moderated RE: seven-seas Ultimate Celtic Album And was also a song heard on Manc terraces before LFC got hold of it!!!!! - -----Original Message----- From: owner-seven-seas@smoe.org [mailto:owner-seven-seas@smoe.org] On Behalf Of Barry Whiting Sent: 08 February 2003 00:18 To: seven-seas@smoe.org Subject: Re: seven-seas Ultimate Celtic Album - ----- Original Message ----- From: "Michael Johnston" > I'd forgotten about YNWA, they recorded the crowd before one of the matches to be included on the CD.

Very, very good. Tongue-in-cheek and not at all pretentious given that it's got a Factory catalogue number. The actor as Ian Curtis is eerily authentic. Looking forward to watching it again with added "benefit" of Tony Wilson's commentary. I've almost forgotten how bad "Velvet Goldmine" was. - -- Barry Whiting barry@urquell.freeserve.co.uk ====================================== The Official Seven-Seas Web Page. www.bunnymenlist.com ====================================== ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 7 Feb 2003 17:00:08 -0800 From: Charles Pham Subject: seven-seas-moderated coldplay us dates so Coldplay just announced summer tour dates in the US, starting in mid-May, same time Mac is touring, right? i doubt he'd play any opening dates in the US, but you never know i guess...

Dunno about the record, but I love the song. It's the maudlin kind like "Danny Boy" that can be beautiful or retchingly overdone. The retch factor with these things tends to rise exponentially as one adds to the number of singers. - --Amy ====================================== The Official Seven-Seas Web Page. www.bunnymenlist.com ====================================== ------------------------------ End of seven-seas-moderated-digest V2 #39 *****************************************
