A song for Sala @ Arsenal

Wed Jan 23, 2019 4:14 pm

It would be really nice gesture if we could get a long running chant going next Tuesday

So how about, to the same tune of 'Don't take me home'

Emiliano Sala
They just don't seem to understand
We never saw you play
That's okay
Cos you'll allows be a Bluebird in our hearts

:bluebird:

BlueDredd, thanks for the heads up.
Sorry I left out the first line.
I have amended the original post
Not very good at this, but does that work?

Just keep it simple and use the Sala chant that Nantes sing

Re: A song for Sala @ Arsenal

Thu Jan 24, 2019 4:01 pm

Oh sala
Emiliano Sala
You’ll always be in my heart
You’re my everything

To the tune of come on Eileen?

Been supporting City for years and have never felt so upset by something. It is so sad. My lad is a season ticket holder in the Canton and we often read the forum and hope you don't mind me offering a song?

(Don't Cry for me Argentina tune)

We can't stop the tears Emiliano
There's a shirt here for you,27
We never knew you
But won't forget you
We hope you play well, up there in heaven

I like the song the Nantes fans were singing in the Vigil for Emiliano, not sure if that was his chant but a nice touch!

Re: A song for Sala @ Arsenal

Thu Jan 24, 2019 6:34 pm

To the chorus of Que Sera Sera

Oh Sala, Sala
Emiliano Sala, Sala
You'll stay in our hearts, Sala
Oh Sala, Sala
Emiliano Sala

Some worthy efforts here. We need one though, one simple, easy, familiar song that can be sung by us and opposing fans if they want to join in.

To “Let it be”

Salaaa, Sala
Salaaa, Sala
Goodbye Emiliano....Sala

If we could get everyone belting that out at the Emirates and CCS I’m sure it would be very moving.

This song actually works just using the words Emiliano Sala.

Definitely works, not sure if as easy to sing. As long as we got a song for him though

Sala had a dream
To play for our football team
He signed from Nantes to score all of our goals
Our big Argentine
Our big number 9
Emiliano, you'll always be mine

Not sure on the last line. Any ideas?

This one gets my vote, simple to remember and the song is more melancholic than the upbeat 'Kevin McNaughton' tune.

Re: A song for Sala @ Arsenal

Instead of 'Here's to you, Sean Morrison'... "Emili-ano Sala, City Loves You More Than You Will Know" :bluebird:

Re: A song for Sala @ Arsenal

To the same tune as sing a song for Speedo.

Pray for Emiliano,
We will never let you go,
You will always be,
A bluebird me

I love that.

It's difficult to think of something simple and appropriate.
So just a simple suggestion. As Men of Harlech is played every week, instead of singing the "Na Na Na. Etc "to it, why not Just sing
" Sala la la la la"......etc
And at the appropriate place "Emiliano Sala"
And maybe at the end instead of "Welshman never fail" perhaps sing
"Always in our thoughts"

That could be sung at home matches for the remainder of the season.
Just a thought. :bluebird:

Sing a song for Sala
We will never let you go
You will always be
At city with me


To the same tune as the speedo one

Re: A song for Sala @ Arsenal

There’s only one Emiliano
One Emiliano
Walking along
Singing a song
Walking in a Sala wonderland

Re: A song for Sala @ Arsenal

Sat Jan 26, 2019 5:57 pm

He will always be blue
Always be blueeee
Emiliano Sala
He will always be blue

My favourite so far,but no need for the 2nd sala (2nd line) so maybe,oh sala,sala,Em ili ano sala,,you'll stay in our hearts,sala,oh sala,sala,and repeat :?: very easy to remember,would sound awesome at Arsenal, and even better at home to Bournemouth :bluebird:

Re: A song for Sala @ Arsenal

I think the que sera sera song would have been perfect for Sala if he was playing for us. Whilst he is missing / presumed dead i think some people may take it the wrong way though.

No other suggestions for a chant though sorry, apart from Emiliano Sala he’ll always be blue

Re: A song for Sala @ Arsenal

Sun Jan 27, 2019 6:00 pm

Think we should sing what nantes sang.
Emiliano sala,emiliano sala,
Emiliano emiliano
Emiliano sala
Then repeat

A big artist in South America is Gustavo Lima and one of his songs which is called “ballada” you may of heard it? The chorus goes perfect with emilaiano Sala and it’s upbeat, think this would be brilliant if we could get it all going....

Emiliano Sala
O tchê tcherere tchê tchê
Tcherere tchê tchê
Tcherere tchê tchê
Tchereretchê
Tchê, tchê, tchê
Emiliano Sala

Over and over
