Dave's still up, watched the whole thing and is still fume posting.

He's pedalling as fast as he can down the Lancs heading for the Lisbon to vent his anger properly

Apart from *that* song, which got booed and rounds of EVERTON got sung, that was spectacular

THE CITY IS BLUE

 

[Saint Domingo]

WTF the rest of the world thinks of us I dont tkbow. Not much.

A major event takes place in the city that we are the first football club in and a Liverpool song is chosen to represent the city of Liverpool and Everton are left on the sidelines.

Imagine the Kopites having to put up with that.

This club and it's supporters just shrug though.

Absolutely no dignity left.

Still, "it was great for the city lad".

It's just too painful these days. It really 'kin is.

I just don’t see why it has to be included. That’s two events in a row now. Wouldn’t surprise me if the kopites pay to spread that dirge as far as they can, turns up at everything. I mean having it at the coronation was absolutely ridiculous, there was literally zero link.

Former Eurovision contestants in Liverpool and Ukraine joined together for an emotional performance of You’ll Never Walk Alone that brought audience members to tears.

The final act of the grand final before the vote closed was The Liverpool Songbook – a celebration of the host city’s contribution to the world of pop music.

The liverpool songbook since when did Rodgers and hammerstein come from Liverpool?

 

[Groucho]

I just don’t see why they have to be shoehorned into everything.

The Farm All Together Now would have been far more appropriate.

Looks like Aldo has upped his writing skills.

 

[Lapeno77]

So they couldn't think of a song with connections to the city which everyone knew the words, about peace and love and instead opted for the funeral dirge.

Imagine that

 

[Kurt.]

So, never watched a minute of it, who won in the end ?

 

[AsiaAsia82]

Apparently Macca said, ‘ I’m all for love and peace man, but if you’re going to play that dirge song, which actually divides the city, you ain’t playing any of mine,

Then in the back ground someone else said ‘nor mine either!’

To which Macca said, ‘be quiet Ringo ffs…’

That’s why they didn’t have any Beatles songs in the Mersey song book

That’s what I heard anyway

Finland. Cha Cha Cha.

It only happens to be ABBA's 50th anniversary next year so Stockholm arranges the party.
