Team Themesongs

Post by McTavish »

Any of you have any particular favorite song that you use or envision accompanying your team?

My current team is called the Lost Hope Soldiers; they're all outcasts from the anarchic clans of the Skaven. They're pretty rebellious, and rather difficult to actually get to play sometimes. They've got it stuck in their heads that the only one that matters anymore is themseves, having already either voluntarily left or having been thrown out of a clan, and getting them to work as a team is a challenge. But the power and money that could come as a result of being a star Blood Bowl player is a bit too attractive to pass up on. It's a fun concept, really.

Theme song: Adios by KMFDM

IT'S BEEN TOO MANY TIMES THAT I STUCK OUT MY NECK FOR YOU
IT'S BEEN TOO MANY TIMES THAT I SPOKE MY MIND TO YOU
IT'S BEEN TOO MANY TIMES THAT I CAUGHT ALL THE FLAK FROM YOU
APATHETIC CRAP IS ALL I CAN FIND IN YOU

I DON'T WANT NO PART IN THIS
I DON'T FEEL THE NEED TO SCORE
BURNT ALL BRIDGES
CLOSED MY HEART
I DON'T WANT TO BE A PART
NO MORE

DOSVIDANIJA CIAO ADIEU
HASTA LA VISTA I'M ON MY WAY
GOODBYE SAYONARA
AND NIMMERWIEDERSEHEN
OVER AND OUT
AND DOWN THE DRAIN

IT'S BEEN TOO MANY TIMES THAT I RAISED MY VOICE AT YOU
IT'S BEEN TOO MANY TIMES THAT I WALKED THE LINE WITH YOU
IT'S BEEN TOO MANY TIMES THAT I'VE HAD NO CHOICE BUT YOU
HYPOCRITICAL SWINE I HAVE HAD IT THIS TIME
THANK YOU...

(Sorry for the caps- I copied and pasted the lyrics from a website. The type of music does lend itself to their use, however. They may not be exact, either, but ah well.)

Anybody else do this sort of thing, or am I just weird? :wink:

My 3rd edition minotaur team used "Bulls on Parade" from Rage Against the Machine. Not all the lyrics match the team, but the chorus is dead on.

My Norse always wanted to play to the song my the Swedish Chef from the Muppets, but I could never find a copy of it :(
So, due to some strange skill choices (hey, I was an inexperianced coach) the played to "My Way" by Limp Bizkit.

My old (and now retired) Chaos-team usually chill out and practice illegal thingies (well, they ARE criminals) to Eminem's "If I Get Locked Up Tonight"...
