Paradise City

[midfielder]

Needs its own thread....

Also just so we can let the Football world know of what I understand is a fan driven name for the stadium regardless of what the naming rights may become... do we have the story of how it came about.

Two links first the youtube and second an imagine of the stadium

Recky wins - GnR or nothing

I don’t want to say it in case it’s REALLY unpopular opinion.. but I’m not a fan ?

I hope it’s not a jinx for the whole season to be honest because it really felt that way when our “Paradise” became submerged at the hands of the weather Gods ?

Hopefully Won't back down will now only be played on some 24 hour soft rock station in Kansas

But keep Immigrant Song

My understanding and I stand to be corrected ... so please correct if wrong.... but Paradise is the fans name for our stadium regardless of what name is given to it by future sponsors ... its something we can own and not for sale for any business ....

The song may or may not last but the name will and as of now the G & R song Paradise City is more popular than the Choir Boys .. Run to Paradise... and Coldplays ..Paradise.....

Just did a quick YouTube search to see if there are any more upbeat versions of I won't back down and stumbled on this


"The Swamp" probably suits Gosford more than "Paradise City" ? ?

“Take me down to the Paradise City where the grass is green and the girls are pretty”.

Oh well, only half right.

American College Football atmosphere is just nuts. The games exceed European football now that only the rich attend stadiums in the EPL, La Liga, Serie A etc.

GnR recorded version was a lot better than the above live version but i`d prefer Choirboys myself...

I also like Paradise by the Dashboard Lights by Meatloaf but maybe that might
be a little inappropriate...

Yes - totally inappropriate!! What's the play at the plate? Much more appropriate for baseball.

Phil Collins actually bought that song from a publisher.It was written originally by a guy from Sadlier (near Liverpool NSW). Once Collins owner the song he reworked it into the hit it became...
