Unfortunately that isn't a song that is a song. Don't want to use school fight songs .... looking more for songs that have been on the hit parade type of songs.

 

I do have it though. LOL

Ugh...tougher than I thought.

 

Not sure if either of these fit your criteria, but:

 

1. Rod Stewart's "You're in my Heart" has a line "You're Celtic United, but baby I've decided, your the best team I've ever seen".

 

2. And since I have four kids, I am very familiar with High School Musical's "Get Your Head in the Game"...may be too teeny-bopper for your liking.

 

I'll keep thinking. :wacko:

And I hope they are ALL girls?!?! :D

Sky, not sure what you'll think of this, but I've been listening to the Tragically Hip for many years now and one of the coolest stories told is in a song called "Fifty Mission Cap", it's on the Fully Completely album. It's about Bill Barilko and the Toronto Maple Leafs.

 

Bill Barilko disappeared that summer,

he was on a fishing trip.

The last goal he ever scored

won the Leafs the cup

They didn't win another until 1962,

the year he was discovered.

I stole this from a hockey card,

I keeped tucked up under

my fifty mission cap, I worked it in

to look like that

Gil, The Hip are my favorite band. What got you exposed to them? They get NO respect in the states (i've heard they get some airplay in border towns like Detroit, etc.)

They are loved here in Chicago...loved. WXRT has been on them since Day For Night...

 

The first song I personally heard from them was Courage many years ago.

 

I've turned them on to everyone I can because Gord's a poet and they are a real rock band. They have multiple, many-many excellent songs.

 

Some of my personal favorites are Grace, Too---Escape Is at Hand for the Traveling Man---Vapor Trails----I could easily list 40 or 50 songs. I've got everything they've done that's been produced commercially. :wacko:
