FOREVER EVERTON (song)

[EFC-FCN]

Great to see “The spirit of the blues” doing so well in the download charts, but my favourite is “Forever Everton” which is always sung at our away games, but does anyone know the story behind it and who wrote it ??

I've always sung.... we're up for the league, we're up for the cup....

Turns out I've been wrong since a kid, it's we're after the league, we're after the cup...

Still Evertons on the up and up at least...

March of the Gwladys Street Gladiators. Still got the single somewhere.

...and here’s me thinking it was ‘we’re out of the league and we’re out of the cup’.

Bought my son a CD before the 95 cup final,had a load of Everton songs on it including all the well known ones as well as some from fans in Finland probably done in their bedroom on a Bontempi keyboard.So bad it was good,remember having it blasting out the car that summer on holiday in Cornwall.Have tried for years to get a replacement copy as now lost,also never been uploaded on You Tube.
Anybody know how to get one it would be greatly appreciated......

 

[Street end man]

Forever Everton is our anthem, only beaten by Z cars.
