Possible New Songs for Crew Games

I love coming up with new Crew SC songs, but it’s super hard to figure out ones that truly work. IMO they need to be:

• dog-simple, 
• fun, 
• catchy, 
• even more simple, 
• widely recognizable, 
• a cappella-friendly (very important), and 
• with as few lyrics as possible. 

Bonus round awesomeness would be to include all of Mapfre in the singalong and/or to have a local connection with a tune.

For instance, when it first came out "7 Nation Army" was great b/c it’s only 7 notes and zero lyrics. It has since been co-opted by every "Jock Jams" DJ on the planet. That said, here are some ideas.

Can’t Get Crew Outta My Head

TUNE: Can't Get You Outta My Head - Kylie Minogue

I just can’t get Crew outta my head

No your goals are all I think about

I just can’t get Crew outta my head

No your goals are all I think about

La la, la la la la, la la (x4)

The tune is super catchy, and I like the idea of Nordecke singing the la la las. Lyrics are easy; folks are already used to singing "...just can't get" when they sing "I Just Can't Get Enough". Side note: I'd watch Kylie Minogue do my taxes.

Kamara, Kamara

TUNE: Tomorrow –Annie OST (1982)

Kamara, Kamara,

We love ya, Kamara,

He'll score us a goal today (repeat a bunch)

Like Kei, this has legs. We need an AWESOME song for Kamara, who is a legit MVP candidate and generally is fabulous.

UPDATE: Fixed the last line, thanks to Jerry Legend.

I Hate Myself for Loving Crew

TUNE: I Hate Myself For Loving You - Joan Jett

I hate myself for loving Crew

Can’t break free from the things that they do

I wanna walk but I run back to you

That's why I hate myself for loving Crew

I thought of this when Alex Stanek went to The Who show and saw Joan Jett, who is undeniably a bad ass. In hockey, they play certain songs when the home team is scored on. Kinda weird. It makes me not like the song most of the time, b/c I’m associating it with something poopy. On the other hand, if we sang this song after the Crew were scored on, it would be 1) original, 2) a re-commitment of our undying love, 3) a way to quickly get our heads back in the game.

Praise Crew

TUNE: Praise You – Fatboy Slim

We’ve come a long long way together

Through the hard times and the good

I have to celebrate Crew baby

I have to praise Crew like I should (repeat)

I love the message on this one. Thinking that along with some soul claps, this could take flight.

Tchani B. Goode

TUNE: Johnny B. Goode - Chuck Berry

Go Go. 
Go Tchani go, go.
Go Tchani go, go.
Go Tchani go, go.
Go Tchani go, go. Tchani B. Goode. (repeat)

Very simple, and 'Tchani' is a dead ringer for 'Johnny'. Dishonorable mention: "Who's Tchani?", a take off the El DeBarge song.

Crew Ya Think I'm Sexy?

TUNE: Da Ya Think I'm Sexy? - Rod Stewart

IF u like Mawbati AND u think he’s sexy COME on Mapfre let me KNOW. 

IF u really need it JUST reach out & shoot it COME on Cedrick score a GOAL. 

Na na na na na... Nana nana nana na, nana nana nana na

Hopefully Cedrick is great and causes us to sing this song often.
