The Creature Blue Lagoon Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 I know the organization is tinkering with the intro song and I thought I would post a this topic to vocalize the need to keep the U2 song; anybody else that agrees or disagress please post so we can really what the flavour of the city is. I myself have gone through points where I was sick and tired of the song, and wished it would change, but the more I think about, the more I watch opening sequences of the Nucks coming out the tunnel, the latest cup run, with the sirens and the guitar blasting, the more I realize this is the intro we should have. Any thoughts? P.S. Anybody else see that weird post about Kassian licking his lips............... weird... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pistolpro327 Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 well i did notice that on the first game there the intro/entrance song was quite out of sync and unmotivating. Also agree the U2 over that song was better. still think something better then the U2 could be used though as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armada Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 What's even the point over argueing over this anymore. We'll never all agree on something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raspberries Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Agree! Where the Streets have No Name has heart, it has energy, it has passion, it's our identity. They dump it for some weak, insipid, techno crap that couldn't possibly inspire anyone let alone rev up the team and the crowd. Embarrassing. Bring back U2!

The Creature Blue Lagoon Posted January 27, 2013 Author Share Posted January 27, 2013 Yet the lines are "I want to run, I want to hide". Doesn't sound that intimidating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bissurnette Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 how about a poll? all in favor of U2 say aye? I'll get started with aye? Or maybe it would be better if the OP includes a poll Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CanuckofSteel Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 I agree with Scarface, U2 song is amazing. It is a special song to Vancouver. Only Canadiens and Canucks have U2 has one of their main songs. Canadiens use Vertigo by U2 for goal song and Canucks use Where The Streets Have No Name by U2, both teams names means Canadian so it is funny how both use U2. Please keep U2!

exhalebritishcolumbia Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 First off, the lyrics are cut out, I think its obvious for this very reason. Secondly, the build up to the song is very emotional and can and should be seen as inspiring; slowing building to a surge. Thirdly, the horn placed in the song is awesome.... Fourthly, the song itself attempts to suggest the differences we have do not matter and that we are all people, one in the same. This theme fits perfecty, with the theme of "We are all Canucks."

La Mauviette75 Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 personally, i never like the U2 song. it's too soft (in these moments, i appreciate the fact there's no more minus votes haha). it's not like i need Rammstein to get me going, but i just don't think U2 is good enough. fine it gives you goosebumps, but it's not a "let's go out there and kill them" song. i want intensity. this is a personal opinion, and i completely understand why people liked U2. either way, honestly, the game is the game, and that's all i care about.

jollygreengiant Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Keep U2!! This song gets me SO pumped for nucks games i get goosebumps. Reminds me of when my Dad and i had an Ice pak back in 04. I remember seeing the game 7 vs the Flames that year and the place was going insane at the opening. For me this is similar to the CBC losing the HNIC intro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
