American Couple/Sports Fans React: England's BEST Football Chants! FIRST TIME REACTION EVER!!

[@sarahealey1780]

It's funny how with football it's a roll reversal with u guys, Americans are known for being loud, and the British quiet and reserved, until sporting events where we become crazy and you guys become respectful and quiet 😁

[@TheNatashaDebbieShow]

Interesting observation! But true. However there are some big exceptions there. 😉❤️

[@neilgayleard3842]

What makes it interesting is the perception of both countries. British are all reserved and don't sing. While Americans are loud and will sing at every opportunity.

[@helvete983]

So true Sara. I never can get my head around sitting with rival fans. And most of our chants would get you kicked out in the US. And when Americans try to chant, well it's just cringe. "I believe we will win..." Try that at Elland Road and I believe you'll wake up in hospital.

[@s4ss1n]

the art of chant making does have its main well known ditties everyone is at least vaguely aware of, they are generaly short and easily remembered and copied so picking up a crowd chant isnt hard even when they are spontaniously formed. though ill admit im more of a fan of the more brash versions of chanting. most clubs do have a mainstay chant which are often formed from or around popular songs e.g. liverpools walk alone, west hams i'm forever blowing bubbles etc. and they can have there own historical chants i.e. fields of anfield road, singing of past glories, and the differnce it can make to players on the pitch is quite undeniable when the stadium sings as one. i recomend looking in to these if you want to avoid the more "ahem" adult ones, maybe start with kzbin.info/www/bejne/fZ-pgKSwaZZ_mdk

The feeling of when going down Northumberland Street in Newcastle when some start chanting, usually most domestic clubs/squads have their stadiums outside of the places where they are. Isn't the case with NUFC, is honestly amazing. It can either be a group or one person and then it catches on and some like in NUFC's case the Blaydon Races, was written by Geordie Ridley in the think 1860s, was about a fictional accident at a Victorian cart race in Blaydon Gateshead and for some reason the NUFC supporters started chanting it in the ground. kzbin.info/www/bejne/n3e2laBrrpuXptU mostly translated version kzbin.info/www/bejne/i4TPf6Kkf7qLpc0 and for the 150th anniversary kzbin.info/www/bejne/o5C4lWmtoL6Bd9U NUFC's crest is practically identical to the city's Coat of Arms, with the two seahorses with NUFC's the black and white shield, but the city's coat of arms having the shield in 3 sections with the 3 castles, what one giving Newcastle it's name, the old castle burnt down, was called Pons Aelius Latin for Hadrians Bridge.

[@davehopkin9502]

Some chants are specifically aimed at a single team and last for years, some chants just get a persons name changed to keep the current, some are spontanious and start with a small group and spread - dont forget the lyrics are pretty simplistic and usually based on a well known tune.

[@stuhazle]

"Bird" is a modern version of the old English word "burd" (first coined in the 13th century) meaning "maiden". Over the years its spelling changed from burd to bird because it sounded like the more familiar word, bird, so it ended up being spelled like it too. It's possible that "burd" could also be the result of a 12th-century semantic shift from the Old English word brȳd, meaning bride. "Fit" just means attractive.

[@Rallarbusen]

They are about to face off with Sweden, so 'Your birds are fit' is a compliment to Swedish women.

Chants become common over time, yes. But bear in mind chants are developed 1) with generally simple words and 2) to commonly known tunes. Seriously, you can pick up most of our chants before you finish hearing it for the first time.

Also, if someone had fainted & had to be taken out of the crowd by the Red Cross, the crowd would often make the ambulance siren sounds (nee-naw nee-naw) as the poor volunteers arrived!

6:20 Birds = girls. 8:09 Normally our chants are songs or hymns that someone’s changed the lyrics too to fit the situation, a majority of people will know the tune and then pick up the changed words. 11:10 I think we do in big games but I don’t think so in smaller games (sorry if I’m wrong) 13:50 this is definitely a tame version because as watchers get progressively more dr#nk they lose there filter and go wild 15:03 there have been lots of fights (but I am unsure if thing have gotten so bad someone’s d!ed) normally you do have to be careful because depending where you are you could get attacked or harmed by the opposite team 15:19 they have to keep them separated because some people are so invested in there team that they would fight anyone who supported a different team and it might become serious quickly, it also help with chants 19:47 actually I think that the chants shown where either in the game or before it eg. ‘I’m England till I die’ and ‘we’re on the p!$$ and we’re having a laugh’ 20:27 yes lots of chants and dr!nking going on when your walking there and waiting outside and in car parks

none of the things shown in this video are what you would call too dramatic or offensive, there's a lot worse than that, and certain teams in europe have fan groups known as 'ultras' who take mob violence and football chants to a totally different level, and while it's nowhere near as bad as it used to be here in the UK (for the most part), in certain countries in europe they have some pretty bad reputations, romania is a well known one, there's a few in greece, and several in germany/italy, it's partly due to these old fan groups that used to cause a lot of damage and physical harm to rival fans and such that we have segregated fan areas, and why you will never see a stadium full to capacity with rival fans next to home fans, there's always a set amount of space between fans where no seats are allowed to be sold when it comes to international games, for domestic league games there's a few stadiums where they have set seats for away fans (generally newer stadiums), older stadiums have 'away ends' that are policed by marshals and the police itself on match days to keep fans apart.

That video was the world cup chants, the first one was pre-game btw as were most of the other street ones. The actual best football chants are the normal games, one or two of them are a little close to the bone covering certain taboo subjects, if you know the backstories to them they can be amusing but to the average person not so much. A fair few of the chants are pre rehearsed by a group of fans but there are some that are totally on the fly. As for the separation of the fans, that is/was a real problem because of the “Firms”(groups of hardcore fans), they used to contact each other before a game to set up a massive brawl which usually involved “Tooling Up”(arming themselves with weapons) one of the worst weapons was the 50pence piece which has 7 edges, 6 of them were filed down as sharp as blades then you would hold it between your thumb and middle finger with your index finger on the flat edge and you would throw it at someone like skipping a stone on a lake.

We usually play both countries national anthems during international tournaments before a game, but not normal clubs. Also football chants are usually just catchy tunes that most people know already, but with words adapted (usually on the fly) for that particular game or reserved for that particular team we're currently playing ((usually hated arch rivals). It's just someone with a big foghorn of a voice and a lot of beer in them that shouts out, and 20 people round him will pick it up and chant, which then expands to 100s more.

The spontaneity of chants can vary. A few are very much of the moment. Others are rather generic and simply spread around different clubs, and the national team.

For a european game every football player will go and play for their home team (where they were born) to showcase the best players each place has (england, brazil, madrid, germany, italy, egypt ect) which is where the national pride comes from. also yes we have party's in the street like the first clip after a win or before an international game and a lot of the time its outside the stadium just wherever we are.

Great video! I’m British and can confirm, these are very tame.

With regards to “we’re not going home” that’s not as in we’re not going home to bed, it’s referencing a tournament/ cup in a knockout stage. As in, we’re still in the competition, and we’re not going home (yet!) These were all quite small groups of people chanting. Usually there’s thousands of people all in unison. We are also not allowed to sit next to each other due to fights and in the past unfortunately… murders 😢 People pre drink in the streets and in pubs before the game starts. The partying will continue into the night. In World Cup games, it’s not uncommon to see people partying in the streets for 2-3 days after the game.

The German bombers chant was actually filmed at an England away game in Germany. It might have been at the World Cup

[@johnmichaelwhalen1648]

Hello ladies, did you know England and The U.S.A are playing each other at this year's world cup in Qatar in december. Maybe you could do a livestream watchalong, I'll get the beers and pizza in 😘

[@alfredkar]

Apologies if these points have been stated already but I have checked. Most tunes of footy chants are from existing songs etc with new lyrics of course. To fully clarify, the very first clip is to the tune of a dance hit by Gala called 'Freed from Desire'. Released around 1998 I think...

[@tombaxter6228]

My favorite chant of all time, referenced Bobby Zamora, of Brighton & Hove Albion fame, who developed a habit of spooning the ball into orbit, rather than scoring a sitting goal: *To the tune of 'Amore' 'If you're in row Z. And the ball hits your head. That's Zamora...'

[@TheCornishCockney]

Nah,it’s…… When the ball hits the head of the bloke in row Z……..that’s…..Zamora!

[@davidclarke2513]

It's at a football tournament where supporters go abroad and watch matches at a fan zone either at the world cup or European championship

Not a big football fan, but enjoyed the reaction! Should for sure check out the Shrovetide Football though, you wont have seen anything like it in the US :)

[@williamronneywilliams2639]

Trust me it breaks out into fisty cuffs (full on fighting) especially between teams like man utd v man City or Manchester United v liverpool I'm a Manchester Red (United) so the separation of supporters is vital.

[@eddhardy1054]

Yeah definitely watch the Shrovetide Game. It gives some idea of what medieval street football must have been like 😊

[@derekneville8175]

Loved it. The last one I was not aware of. There are other chants out there with a deeper sentiment. Worth checking out if you're happy to do the research.

We will literally chant about anything.

Which is pretty cool

Usually a couple.of people at the back.of the stands start the chant and then everyone joins in. They are all easy well known tunes so easy to pick up.

One person will start a chant and then everyone else will join in x

[@markmilligan1462]

National anthem is only played for internationals, so 10 mins in when the national anthem is played, the reason that is impressive is because England are playing in France Lens stadium, they took over the ground. Most songs are repeated, and they mostly follow a well known music song, but the ones that are created on that day, usually are to a well known tune, which makes it easier to sing

[@potdog1000]

Bird means girl/woman like chick =bird so the chant Your birds are fit but your football's shit translates to " We find the ladies of your country are rather attractive but alas dear fellows your football seems to be less than perfect.

[@JohnMacbeth]

If you mixed teams like that here you'd have a bloodbath.

[@ericnoble6542]

The national anthem would have been played at yesterdays FA cup final but not at a normal game.

[@rogoth01themasterwizard11]

yeah it's reserved for mostly international games and special occasions like the F.A. cup which is still attended by royalty.

[@Dagrdottir]

It honestly is done on the fly, one person sings it and then there is a very fast chain reaction, like a vocal mexican wave, and everyone in that half of the stadium is singing. There are also standard chants when fans are in their own stadium. I There is always an element of truth in the chants as well. Unfortunately, there has been violence at football grounds especially between two local rival sides but it is a lot rarer now than it used to be. The fans are split as a result. In Rugby everyone sits wherever so it is mixed. I was at a game once and it was 48 - 0 with my team winning with 10 minutes to go. Two guys in front of me were totally surrounded by fans from my team and one shouted down to the players 'come on guys we could still win this!' The rest of us were in fits and bought them both a drink and a mars bar. That's what it's like at a rugby match, you feel totally safe.

[@ericnoble6542]

Chants go on throughout the game

[@soulgalorememories9921]

I admire your stance on vulgarity - it is all over the place... I can take it and find humour in it, but it doesn't mean I want to see it at every turn. Good for you two for sticking to your guns...... I'm sure many will be happy to support the aim of your channel.

[@TheNatashaDebbieShow]

We appreciate that, thank you!

[@colinallison9163]

The vulgarity is the basis of British humour and some of the chant’s made are quite intelligent in there creation

[@soulgalorememories9921]

@@colinallison9163 - you are right and I enjoy that humour like any Brit would, the point I was making is that the girls have an absolute right to deciding the content on their channel. I also agree that some of the chants are very creative and I think only Brits can do this well.

[@TheMarkyMarx]

In the UK's national anthem is only played before an International match as is the anthem of the opposition. The only other time it is officially played is before the Cup final or if someone from the Royal family is present in an official capacity.

[@autumnwinter1462]

The other version is so funny tho 😩

[@Richie8406]

16:00 This has been a running theme since WW2. England would chant 2-0 at the beginning, obviously referring to the 2 wars they won against Germany

[@raiskis1]

Singing is global in football (and other sports) with all fans creating offensive, rude and political lyrics. Also, there are many funny songs and chants. Certain rivalries are more virulent than others: Brazil/Argentina, Holland/Germany and so on.

The first location was in st Etienne in the main square before we played a euro 2016 group game

[@mattblackwell4100]

I loved watching this and seeing your reactions. Made me think back to the days when I used to go to football matches. I'm originally from East London and now live in Perth, Western Australia so don't really get the chance to go any more. There are some talented people out there who do indeed make up songs on the spot and get everyone (fellow supporters) to sing in unison, usually having a dig at one of the opposing teams players or manager. Coming from East London usually means that if your into soccer you support either West Ham, Tottenham or Arsenal as they are the nearest teams geographically. Most of my family were a mix of West Ham (Hammers), Tottenham Hotspurs (Spurs) or Arsenal (The Gunners) fans. One of my favourite chants of all time which goes to the tune of 'My Old Man Said Follow The Van' (a true cockney sing-song) has the following words... My old man said be an Arsenal fan I said 'F*ck off, bollox you're a c*nt This can be sung by Spurs supporters to Arsenal fans OR it can be sung to Spurs supporters by Arsenal fans and they just say Tottenham instead of Arsenal. I like the friendly rivalry and humour when it is all done in the name of fun, not the hooliganism. I've been to some London derby games where things have gotten violent and it is not pretty. Keep up the great work ladies

[@enemde3025]

VERY tame chants ! You need to watch the more hard core ones. The video answered your question on singing the National Anthem before games. It is sung before England matches only. Scotland would sing Flower Of Scotland. Fans are kept apart at football games to stop trouble erupting ! They are even separated on the streets on the way to games. Tailgating means something different in the UK. It means driving too close to the car in front. We don't have gatherings, BBQs etc in car parks before the games.

[@TheNatashaDebbieShow]

We explained our reasons for not watching the other video. Vulgar Chants, not entertaining to us. Tailgating has the meaning here too, just means the other when it comes to Sports. The video didn't answer anything in regards to the anthem. Just because people were singing in the crowd doesn't give context to the question we asked but almost every other comment has been the answer. 😉

[@michaelfoster5577]

And matches like Cup Finals. It was played yesterday and some unpleasant individuals booed that as well as “Abide with me” and Prince William meeting the teams. Sadly there is less respect and pride these days. The big deal about the IRA is the sectarianism in Glasgow, with Celtic traditionally being Catholic and pro Southern Ireland, while Rangers have been Protestant and pro Unionism. This has never been muc

[@michaelfoster5577]

much of an issue in England or Wales.

[@Badgemeister]

Also, most football teams have dedicated websites where they upload new chants for fans to learn.
