chant for Siggy

chant for Siggy

Worth a go

Siggy Stardust.

Siggy played defence,
Lining up with North and Dura
As Wellington's Heart (unsure, Jam Tard confusion?)
Sometimes as fullback
So he could still start
He always marks his man (any better ideas?)
So we are Siggy Fans.

Brilliant, simply brilliant.

Has real promise, although these kinds of songs are hard to get going.

Slightly simplified lyrics that might be easier to remember and slightly closer to the original (although has two "hearts" in there - not top notch lyric work).


Siggy played defence,
Lining up with North and Dura
At the the heart of the NIX
He played it full on
He played it with heart
Became the special man
So we are Siggy Fans.

Worth working on.

Loving your work guys. Had a couple of ideas, but you guys are much better chant writers than I am.

Throw them in anyway Colvinator, good to get in other ideas.

Turfmoore, great stuff, yours is a big improvement IMO.

the line in the actual song
"making love with his ego"
should really be used.
LOL.

seriously though, w have to chant it, because I told siggy that the fever were working on a chant for him, so it needs to be done now.
he's all excited.
(:

Don't, don't break the spell,
It would be different and you know it will,
You, you make lumping fun,
And I don't have to tell you that you're the only one.

Oooh . . . you make lumping fun. (It's all that we can do.)
Oooh . . . you make lumping fun. (It's all that we can do.)
Oooh . . . you make lumping fun. (It's all that we can do.)

Head, elbow, knees and toes
(Kruse's nose!)
Head, elbow, knees and toes,
(and he throws!)
We love Siggy wherever he goes,
Head, elbow, knees and toes
(Our hero!)

Thinking this might follow in the tradition of great NZ action songs

I still love the Kruse's Nose line.

I like Harry's version. A lot.

<---- This is why.

Harry's version rocks.

I also like siggy plays defence (above)

Technically, 'Kruse's lower jawline' is a more accurate description of the event, but I'm a great fan of poetic license. Especially for easy to remember chants.

Adore him as you do ,I think your changes are tantamount to slander!

Thanx for more or less writing it for us, Siggy.

PS Get well soon!

I was thinking...

Siggy Siggy Siggy, can't you see
You in a stripey just hypnotises me
I just love your non-flashy ways
Guess that's why Robbie Kruse went running away

Gettin Siggy wit it
Na na na na na na na nana
Na na na na nana
(repeat)

To the tune of "Gettin' jiggy wit it" (Classic 90s)

To the tune of Will we rock you.

Heeeee will
Heeeee will
Stomp you.

Hey Ben Sigmund! (Big Defender!)

Tune-  Big Spender                        Bold and +  is where we clap....will happily demonstrate Sunday, once aled   ;)

......

("Bom bombadom bombom!" + +

"Bom bombadom bombom!") + +

As-soon-as-he walks in the ROF (BOOM! BOOM!)

We can see that he's a man of distinction

A REAL Defender!

+Big,strapping,yes he's designed

To drive the opposition players out of their minds!

When-he-gets right to the point (BOOM! BOOM!)

He will stop them short

He'll bring them to their knees +

Hey Ben Sigmund!

(Big Defender!)

Hey Ben Sigmund!

(Big Defender!)

Hey Ben Sigmund!

(Big Defender!)

De-Fend .....One more time for..

(Bom bombadom (BOOM!! BOOM!!)

I think the full version is too long and difficult to catch on...

But I like this bit:

Hey Ben Sigmund!

(Big Defender!)

Hey Ben Sigmund!

(Big Defender!)

Hey Ben Sigmund!

(Big Defender!)

De-Fend .....One more time for.. meeeee!

I think this one should be given a go. I can see the Na na na na bit catching on really well!

"Stomp you, Kick you, Slide right through you"

One that can be repeated over and over with continuity too. Like it.

Not sure if I'm dreaming and had heard this somewhere else or for another Nix player?

Can't take my Eyes of you Siggy  

I need you Siggy, if it's quite all right,
I need you Siggy to defend a lonely night.
I love you Siggy.

Trust in me when I say, "OK." (it's OK)
Oh Ben Siggy, "Don't let me down," I pray.
Oh 

Ben Siggy, now that I found you, stay.
And let me love you, oh Siggy let me love you, oh Siggy...

Are you comming out here?

You can't tell me he isn't sexy....

how about this one, it's familar, repeatable and simple...

Toni Basil-Hey Mickey

Oh, Siggy, you're 

so fine

You're so fine you blow my mind

Hey, Siggy

Hey, Siggy

And repeat x5 or until he gives us a wave

That is a great idea. Nice and easy and can keep repeating!

"Just a beer light to guide us

So where are the spiders?

Siggy played for time, became the Special Man

Hey, hey, we're Siggy's band..."

or similar variation on Bowie's Ziggy Stardust, why not?

Edit: just seen it's been suggested before - like 4 years ago!

A bit of Morrissey maybe?

Swapping fatty for Siggy ofc. (Shame Carlos isn't still here)

You're the one for me Siggy

You're the one I really, really love

And I will stay

Because you tackle anything

In your way

Swap stay for sing maybe?

Btw the choice of song isn't a dig at Siggy, just its an easy tune and Siggy fits nicely into it.

Hopefully that link works so people get a better idea, hopefully this can get a trial
