Take my hand, take my whole life too

[Purves Grundy]

"Fools Rush In". That's our terrace choir song. Weirdly, it's something that started completely out of nowhere earlier this season. Somebody started singing it and it just clicked, you know? Since then it's become an absolute fixture. Even though we gave a shockingly poor rendition on the pitch today at 5PM as everybody was too busy struggling with the lumps in their throat.

What's yours?

Take my hand, take my whole life too

No songs spring to mind, but having seen the result, all I can see is congrats, Purves (and TonTon too).

A pedant writes: isn't the song lyric quoted actually from 'Can't help falling in love'?


CAN'T HELP FALLING IN LOVE
(Weiss/ Peretti/ Creatore)

Wise Men say
Only fools rush in
But I cant help
Falling in love with you

Shall I stay
Would it be a sin
If I can't help
Falling in love with you...

Like a river flows, surely to the sea
Darling so it goes, somethings are meant to be
Take my hand, take my whole life too
For I can't help fallin in love with you

FOOLS RUSH IN
(Mercer/ Bloom)

Fools rush in
Where angels fear to tread
And so I come to you my love
My heart above my head

Though I see
The danger there
If theres a chance for me
Then I dont care

Fools rush in
Where wise men never go
But wise men never fall in love
So how are they to know

When we met
I felt my life begin
So open up your heart and let
This fool rush in

[Purves Grundy]

Take my hand, take my whole life too

Probably.

Don't know the title. Don't even know all the words.

Just want to talk about today. All the wombles forums have collapsed under the stress. So here will do.

WTID.

Remember singing that back in the 70's at Shroowsbury.

It's reappeared over the seasons now and again.

It's a common one on the terraces/seats these days.

Ours is the original and un-cringeworthy "Hi Ho Silver Lining".

[Cavalry Trouser Tips]

Take my hand, take my whole life too

It makes regular appearances at Huddersfield.

As soon as "...love wiiiiiiith you" has been sung, I always start beatboxing a UB40-style sub-reggae drumbeat.

Paper Roses. No idea why.

Sloop John B. Just because.

Ermm, I may have given the impression that we sing a Jane's Addiction tune there. We don't.

[DCI Harry Batt]

Take my hand, take my whole life too

I love it, but I wish we'd sing the whole thing, all the way through.

"wise men say" was a Sunderland fanzine back in the 80s.
"ICHFILWY" has been a regular song of ours since its release by Elvis back in early 70s. I remember Man City sang it occasionally as well back then.

[Glass Half Empty]

Reasonably regular at BDTBL but only sung when the kop is confident of victory, late in games.

Yep, ICHFILWY is regularly sung at Wrexham too.

As well as our very own version of Bread of Heaven with "Wrexham Lager" inserted where "Bread of Heaven" should be ...

"Wrexham Lager, Wrexham Lager,
Feed me 'til I want no more ... want no more ..."
