When my American husband first came to live in England, he was shocked at how we swear so much..After 20 years he swears as good as the rest..We taught him well lol
I love it when English football fans sing about Jimmy Savile, and the Americans doesn`t have a clue why he is so bad.. I`m glad i`m not a Leeds supporter...It must be pure hell for them to have to sit and listen to the Savile abuse all the time.
I think my favourite thing about English football chants is how quickly they pounce on a player who's been in the news. Scandal revealed Friday, new chant when he plays on Saturday. 😆
I forgot who said it, but it always stuck with me. If a team starts singing "I believe that we will win", most british teams would sing "I believe you're talking shit" in response.
Or the F word in there instead, most of the chants in football are based on being in a group and no visible leader so can be very abusive. Going back to the 60’s and 70’s we used to sing when the police paraded around the pitch support for harry roberts as he kills coppers. Although the reality was the opposite it was fine to dig at the coppers Often better chants aimed at direct rivals with swearing I did remember one from 70’s where Asa Hartford a Man City player? had a transfer break down to Leeds Utd due to a hole in the heart being detected. when he played T my club to the tune of “there’s a hole In my bucket” was a chant of there’s a hole In your heart asa Hartford
The British are REALLY good at singing/chanting in unison. Every single one of us had an assembly at school every morning from five years old to sixteen. Every morning we all sang together with a teacher on the shitty piano and the lyrics on a projector. There'd also be big assemblies at Christmas and Easter and we would ALWAYS make up rude/funny alternative lyrics and watch the teachers lose it. Now as adults it's progressed to football chants and being really good at live gigs. Also you think it's loud on film? I live close to Old Trafford, the home of Manchester United and you can hear the chants and cheering inside the house with the windows closed.
@@phantom8699 You stopped in Secondary School? Damn, they had us singing right until the end of Year 11! And I wasn't even in a church school. Must depend on the place.
@claire louise Sometimes I used to mime in assembly, but never in classroom singing lessons, where I figured it would be more noticable. At the time, I thought I was good at miming, as none of the other kids sneaked to the staff. Maybe the ones who noticed were grateful that I was not singing!
I am English, been living in the States for 30 plus years. My youngest niece is seriously into Football (just recruited by a college here) we do a family vacation to Europe every 3 years or so. Back in 2017 the trip was to England. My sister in law surprised us by buying tickets to the Spurs v Arsenal game, she had no idea that the fans in the premier league are nothing like the crowds at LA Galaxy games, my niece learned a few new words that day.
I went to a Chivas de Guadalajara v. Arsenal game in the Stub Hub.. (my father coming from Guadalajara.. and me being a huge Gunners Fan).. Seeing my people drunk as fuck on the pitch (Mexicans) and English fans chanting.. absolutely loved it ..
The thing is, in Britain we have developed this tribalism over generations. Most teams are over 100 years old and that can't be replicated over 10-20 years. For an example my team was founded in it's current incarnation in 1894 and I'm the 6th generation of my family to go to the matches, you can't just create that artificially straight away.

@@perry714. you gotta stick by your team, nothing more annoying than people who switch from side to side. I see enough tourists at the Etihad these days.
All I can really take from this is the massive cultural differences. In the USA you have the cheerleading culture, basically 'our team is better than yours and we're going to win' To my knowledge, not many countries in Europe have much to do with cheerleading, our chants are more humour - 'win or lose, we're going to take the piss out of you'
Hi, to be perfectly honest, it's same but different. We don't have cheerleaders, but when you have entire neighbourhood, including women, children and the elderly chanting the same song, because they heard it since nursery. You don't really need cheerleaders. No disrespect for US cheerleaders, just different developement, for different conditions
I agree, I understand it is just British culture. When friends of mine have worked abroad, they are often greeted with shock at their sense of humour. We see 'banter' as friendly 😄
Its Britain has a whole the amount of witty Scots, Welsh and Irish is part of being British! Id happily take that than be German and with being born into a Prussian mentality! Even if the have 4 World Cups and 3 European cups!!
It’s actually really fun to join in on that one. Definitely American lol. Simple yet everyone knows it, no matter what part of the country you’re from.
@@binkwillans5138 Jim Henson invented the muppets, although he is American the muppets were filmed entirely in the UK...the studio in London where it was filmed is still standing.
There’s something beautiful about being British, as soon as we’re in school you’ll find yourself making chants for all kinds of things, we even cheer when someone smashes a glass at a pub
Yep barmaid/barman looks utterly confused everyone who sees it Wheeey followed by immediately helping them picking up or saying Well done and then helping them pick it up.
Dude, I really feel your pain. The difference is that the American & British chants is that the American chants are more like a pre-game pep talk & designed to encourage the their team. The brit ones are designed to demoralise the opponent's.
@@veresa3131 I worked at Anfield years ago, I can well imagine. One one occasion a woman came over to me and asked me where her seat was, without any hesitation and after I walked to the end of the tunnel with her I pointed up and I was able to give her concise and exact instructions on how many rows up and how many seats along her seat would be. I returned to my position in the tunnel and I (what I thought was) quietly pulled my colleague up and said to him so that others (the fans around us) wouldn't hear me and I said to him. "Did you see that then? (Colleague: No what), That woman? (Colleague: What about her?), She came over to me and showed me her ticket, (Colleague: And?), well she only had one eye, anyway, I checked her ticket to see where her seat was and I noticed how much she was charged for the ticket, wouldn't you think that since she is only seeing half the game she would only have to pay half the price"! Well I guess at that moment I realised that I hadn't been quite as quiet as I had thought I was as the moment I gave the punch line every fan within a certain 20ft radius burst out laughing, now I swear I kind of cowered just in case either that poor one eyed lady or one of my superiors had heard me. I did feel bad for making light of her obvious disability however, having my own physical disabilities has made me more open to addressing the humorous side of being disabled so I didn't beat myself up over it too much.
It's cos in England, a lot of the time, just one bloke will start some chant, an everyone else will join in, whereas in America it looks so forced and like they've really planned what they're gonna do! The English ones are more like topical aswell, specific incidents or people! Great video tho love these reactions 😂
It's also because we have a 150 year long tradition of watching football in the UK. Teams used to be drawn from and belonged to neighbourhoods and communities which really only began to change in the late seventies/early eighties with the increase in money both on and off the pitch. Now it's "your foreigners v our foreigners" but the wit and irreverence of the songs are still in touch with the roots of the game.
@@thewomble1509 about the chants, it's just not only about football. My friend went to see NHL game and he had a feeling that people came there to eat and have few drinks..I'm watching NBA and must say American sports fans can hold a candle to Europeans. Stark difference between chants and supporting teams.
Literally this so fucking much. They look they’re about to choke themselves while they are singing. And the lyrics. Oh my fucking goodness: ”We are gonna score three more than you” Imagine, just close your eyes and imagine these people Galatasaray, Ajax or Frankfurt away….💀
I'm Scottish and I remember having some American lads over here in England when I was in the Army. We took them on a night out, and they struggled big time to keep up. Good lads all the same.
I've said it many times before, Americans are just far too positive to chant like the Brits. They instinctively chant about winning, whereas Uk chants are quite self deprecating and negative ie, it's usually about how shit something is. Self deprecation is a UK national trait :)
@Andrew hallam So true.That also shows just why the Brits dislike America,They are successfull whereas the Brits generally fail( apart from football that is)
Every single American one is utter cringe, they just don't have a sense of humour or rivalry, every MLS fan needs to watch this video and write some new ones, for cities with 2 teams like NYC or LA they could even adapt the "the city is yours?" one and just change the lyrics to make fun of the other team
i think the "i believe" thing came about when jürgen klinsmann took over as US coach and publically gave a very matter-of-fact assessment about the current state of the national team, as is normal in germany. apparently, american soccer fans didn't like to hear that they weren't gonna be world champions any time soon, thus "i believe we will win." i remember this distinctly from the 2014 world cup.
I wonder if the Americans thought they were being original, lol. Every world cup there is an "official" song sometimes they had a music video to go with it - some cringe some hilarious. Vindaloo was one of more popular ones. one had the lyrics "the Germans bombed the chippy" can't remember the rest of that one (obviously this was when England played Germany) but that one did the rounds at family do's at the time - The "official" ones were usually played by djs at some point. I distinctly remember hearing that one at a wedding party. Even Ant and Dec released one "we're on the ball"
English chants are brutal and to the point. They don't take prisoners. They'd probably be deemed too offensive for US ears. But, hey, who cares in a football ground. All part of the match day fun 😂⚽👍
@@robertroberts3rd265 lol no they don't , woke progressive idiots put a stop to freedom of speech etc . You should look into stuff before you talk crap
In Vancouver before the Whitecaps joined MLS a certain group of fans called the Southsiders (for standing behind the south goal) got into a lot of proper chanting and pisstaking with plenty of swearing... many of them were from the UK... they're still around since MLS but they were instructed to tone it down. They went to an NHL game one time to support the Canucks and were told to not sing constantly - cheer only after a goal - or they'd be thrown out.
One of the best (most brutal) chants I heard was regarding Andy Goram Rangers FC goalkeeper at the time. He was apparently suffering from schizophrenia and the chant was; "There's only TWO Andy Goram's, there's only TWO Andy Goram's..."😂
The abuse Goram got when his wife left him was priceless. Andy Andy where's your wife? followed by She's being shagged by a Jambo (a fan from Scottish club Heart of Midlothian)
To be honest, the American BBQ chant was originally an English football song that was officially released by Fat Les, called Vindaloo, “"Vindaloo" is the debut single by British band Fat Les, released in 1998 and recorded for the 1998 FIFA World Cup. The music was co-written by Blur bassist Alex James and bassist Guy Pratt. The lyrics were written by comedian Keith Allen. The song was originally written as a parody of football chants, but was adopted as one in its own right and became a classic.” 🇬🇧😎👍🏼
During the World Cup a while ago, England played America and America had recently had a massive oil spill and loads of beaches were closed. So during the game, the English fans decided it would be a good idea to start chanting “YOU’RE NOT SWIMMING ANYMORE”
Oh thats hillarious but at Qatar 2022 during the England USA game they were doing the "i believe that we will win" chant And we immediatly fired back with "what the fucking hell was that" They didnt sing it again lol
I think it’s rude and offensive and I’m a number one Ricky Gervais fan. English chants are just crude and lacking in any wit or proper humour- just thugs!!!!!!!
The 2 chants that really epitomises the difference between the US and the UK - your 'I believe that we will win' and our 'we lose every week'. Most of the UK chants probably wouldn't be allowed in the US
Also "barbeque... we're going to score 3 more than you..." is a rip-off of the UK "vindaloo... we're going to score one more than you" Whoever ripped that off totally missed the understated and humble confidence it comically portrayed , and thought "hell! We are going to score more than 1 more.. Make it 3!" But why stop there? If you are going to totally miss the comedy of the comment, why ? Why not 9 or 10?!
My hypothesis is the more lax the gun control laws, the more civilised the banter. I wonder if I went to a big US game and started chanting something like "You should call your team the sixty-niners 'cause you suck", I would then get shot (or possibly bummed) to death by an angry San Fran resident?
“English fans are doing them on there own” Yes. One fan will start and all the others will join in. People will start randomly singing whenever. I love it. Football in England is such a big part of everyday life it’s unconceivable. Also the BARBEQUUEEEEE chant is actually a song made in England called vindalooooooooooo.
At the game in the world cup (boring game, but I digress), the Americans started that 'I believe we will win chant'. It was immediately answered with: What the fuck What the fuck What the fucking hell was that It was never repeated
"Hopefully the US.... don't embarrass me too much" We all knew what was coming, didn't we !! Kevin Nolan flapped his arms chicken-like when he scored, he'd not scored for a while.
Kevin Nolan was the West Ham captain for many years and hes goal celebration was dubbed ‘The Chicken’ by himself. During this match his team was hammered by Sunderland 3-0. The Sunderland fans chanted Kevin Nolan your chicken is dead.
"I wanna give up my citizenship after that one" at 3:50 made me sooo much laugh I mean just face look. I am from Europe, and one thing that really fascinate me is how while in America all wait for one person to start chanting (like drum guy) In Europe chants almost all start instantly, without any pauses.
Im a hockeyguy, and the funniest chant Ive seen is some years ago when England actually qualified for the world championship of hockey, and the Britts chanted; "We´re shite, and we know we are!"
football is a religion here in England. you got some of our tamest chants there m8. we dont need a cheerleader either, we burst out singing spontainiously. our football hooligans like a good sing song before the post match brawling. you know its a match day because every pub in a 5 mile radius of the stadium puts the glass pint pots away and the plastic pint pots come out. match day in england is an experience like no other.
@@garymackie5608 I'm English but also half Scott my mother is from Kennoway, Fife. My Sir name is Yates, it's a good Anglo-Saxon name, but I'm also a Robertson and proud of my Celtic half, I've been in Glasgow on Derby day m8 and I'll admit it's an experience.
When some clubs have existed for 130 years and more, you have tradition, team culture and attachment. That's something that will never arise when your teams are franchises that hop from town to town. People don't go to the stadium to watch a game (like you would go to watch a movie), they go their support their team. Without that you et that lack of intensity. I remember US basketball players who've been active in Europe saying that entering the court felt like entering a warzone, especially in Greece and Turkey.
I worked out the fundamental difference between US soccer chants and UK Football chants. US chants like army chants, one person shouting and a few others repeating. UK chants are more of an organic thing. A few people start and bit by bit everyone joins in until you have the entire fans of one team repeating the chant.
That's quite interesting. I think the chants reflect how our societies differ in real life with god fearing American citizens needing someone to lead and tell them how to react, and us lot over here united against a common foe, a whole tribe thinking and chanting the same.
Wrong flag guys, that's the United Kingdoms' flag. England's flag is the St Georges's Cross. The Union Jack represents the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland (England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales).
They already stole the car, the light bulb, the Internet, Television and many many more, so they have zero compunction about stealing our songs as well.
FYI. THE 'Barbecue' chant started here, but it was Vindaloo (as in the type of curry). It was a song, written by Alex James (of Blur) and sung by Fat Les. It was written for European Championships, can't remember the year, 96? Same year as Baddiel, Skinner and the Lightening Seeds recorded their anthemic, Three Lion's, song. It never caught on as big as hoped, Three Lions outdid it. But it seems to have migrated and changed lyrics. The video for the original, Vindaloo, is on RUclips. Maybe worth a reaction.
Slight correction : Vindaloo was for the France 98 world cup the lines "Me and me mum and me dad and me gran We’re off to Waterloo" refer to that at that time you caught the train to France from Waterloo. A reaction to football songs over the years would be great
@@lyncohn9505 I think, now I've thought about it. Three Lions was reissued when Vindaloo was released. To coincide with the World Cup. I think Three Lions was originally from the Euros. I remember Baddiel and Skinner mocking it. Mocking that canvassers were handing out fliers with the lyrics on, to fans outside of games to try to get it some traction on the terraces. But the fans were all singing Three Lions.
Oof I’m glad to see more yanks react with the same pain Brits feel at hearing the insincere politeness of these silly sods. One thing most yanks don’t get is that Brits use insults as love. It’s better than “have a nice day” any time.
It's so hard being in UK customer service because when I sell someone a ticket, what I want to say is "you're gonna have a shit day, it's pissing raining." But what I have to say is "have a great trip!"
I cannot stop laughing at your reaction 'We will fight and win' I am married to an American I am English..He has just pulled the same face as you...😅😅😅😅😅
“I wanna give up my citizenship” I’m crying 😂😂😂😂 To be fair football is relatively new in the USA compared to the UK, the passion is there so hopefully better chants will form soon!!! I feel like I could write an essay on uk football chants lol
i absolutely love football chants, and the fact if something happens in the stand the brits make a chant about it, at a Barnsley match the other week someone stole a coppers hat and when the cop took it back the stand chanted ''Give us our hat back'' for a solid 5 mins
L1 player a few years back was released from prison after serving time for “causing death by dangerous driving”. When he got subbed on at 60’ we were all chanting “murdererrrr, murdererrrr”
As an American living in the UK I can honesty say that when it comes to chanting at a British soccer game you can't help but join in and they're just so funny
@@albagubrath9073Exactly. I couldn't think of any country where an American living in the UK could watch a British soccer game. Too many possibilities.
I believe that we will win?!? That is fucking pitiful,and quite frankly,insulting. From the country that gave us wordsmiths like Dylan,Paul Simon,Springsteen and Donald Fagen,we get these tools shouting,in PUBLIC,barbecue barbecue. They would be slapped about and sent on their way if they ever stained our game in such an embarrassing fashion over here. Good review mate.
Great reaction man I think one of the reasons you guys haven't really embraced "Football" is because you can't claim it as your own and then have a "World Series" competition that only involes one country😂 Never understood that Not picking on you brother, take care mate
The World Series of baseball actually involves 3 countries (Canada and Japan being the others) and is named after the newspaper/magazine that originally sponsored the tournament. I dated a Cincinnati Cardinals fan.
I've been to a few games in the USA (I'm from the UK) and in truth it's not quite as bad as shown here usually, but the USA very much goes with the 'ultras' style of supporting, which can be good when it works, but tends to be a bit one-paced. I think US sports fans are also a lot more polite, plus the lack of away support means you don't get the back and forth between fans that you can get here.
Your face in the 3rd minute 😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣 priceless. Us English are crap at many things but football and the chants are by far the best...savage, brutal but fantastily funny
It was only about 5 minutes ago the channel was celebrating 10000 subscribers and now it's close to 12000 already! I'm really pleased about this, as this is such a great channel! Congratulations King Mupppet, soon be up to 15000 and beyond!
classic as always!! The chant to the tune of the Adams Family, is about the town where i live.. Kiddereminster. Ive forgotten how many times ive heard that chant now, lol.... they always shorten it to Kiddy !!
Should listen to when the Fans are singing songs tunefully ... for example, Liverpool: 'You'll never walk alone' ... It is quite moving when tens of thousands are singing in unison, whether or not you support the team ... Lots of historic chants with meaning to them are also sung. The difference would seem to be that their Team is actually passionately important to UK fans and the fans communicate outside of the actual game itself ...
The best football song is Hibs adopting Sunshine on Leith. When they sung it at Hampden Park after winning the Scottish FA Cup after a 125 year wait, it was truly epic. Obviously, as a Saint's fan, When the Saint's go Marching in" gets me too.
These are pretty tame for the UK - the home teams especially up North are very good for their fans chants, and the UK fans in stadium (it's calmed down a lot since heavy restrictions were put in place but we do still have our fair share of hooligans) are pretty tame compared to the Ultras of Eastern Europe. The atmosphere during those games makes it feel like you've accidentally gone to war. Really gets your primal lizard brain pumping. Should check them out if you haven't already! :)
As a fan of the British game, I got to say I thought that Kansas City supporters chanting Barbecue was actually halarious and well thought out. It's a Kansas take off of an actual England song called "Vindaloo" from the 1998 world cup.
Give the American fans their due, at least they are trying, here in the UK, we have been doing this for a lot longer, we've had a lot more practice, we've been playing football and cheering team in one form or another for centuries, I think you might find it interesting to look up "the atherstone ball game", or the "Sedgefield shrove Tuesday ball game", the original forms of football, and might give you an idea of the cultural heritage that goes into our modern game today
I was going to say they might catch up in a few hundred years. Also, although not funny like ours, at least they're not being harsh (and it's safe for kids' ears haha)
@@skechyassmofo no I know they're not being harsh, that's what I said? And you're definitely right about their ego, seen it so many times before. I always remember in the 80's some US track athlete kicking off because he (legitimately) lost.. He just couldn't comprehend it😂
Don’t forget even with “soccer” USA teams have few real local rivals. In the UK local rivals are 10-15miles away in the USA it’s 200miles plus It’s a much more real and local tribal issue in UK football
I felt for you watching your Country folk ha ha. I watched an American football game at Madison Gardens the crowd were so quiet, me and my mate nearly started chanting but did not know if we would be asked to leave.
I know it's pretty much described in the title, but your actual reactions are priceless. I cracked after the first face palm! Great videos and yeah, the camera is all good!
The last video about Tottenham is made more special as that was Jack Wiltshire (ex arsenal) with the rest of the Arsenal Team (Spur Rivals) leading the chant. He got fined for it though. The bit you barely hear at the end is he says "Thank you" and the supporters all reply "That's alright"
I honestly haven't laughed as much in weeks! I'm English and our football chants are at least funny and build up the stands! Your reaction to the American ones is hilarious 🥳🇬🇧
The Barbeque chant originates from the Vindaloo chant which came from an England song that was made for the 1998 World Cup. Here's the original m.ruclips.net/video/va6nPu-1auE/видео.html
This video is absolutely priceless. I haven’t laughed so much in ages.. to see your face going red with embarrassment and all your comments were hilarious.. thank you so much for brightening up my day, I was cringing with you but at the same time my stomach was killing me, I just could not stop laughing I had to press the pause button to gather myself together . Brilliant 😂🤣😂 by the way you don’t half remind me of Robbie Williams
What is interesting is that I recognized tunes from 19th century Opera, traditional country music, television themes, advertisements and pop songs Some are common around Europe (such as the March from Aida and Tournadot). In the '80s I mentored a group of students studying "Football Hooligans" their data was used in submissions to a Government report. The Taylor Report. At the time I was working at the University in Portsmouth while attending matches a my club Southampton (Scummers , arch rivals to Pompey fans)

The thing is, in Britain we have developed this tribalism over generations. Most teams are over 100 years old and that can't be replicated over 10-20 years.

All I can really take from this is the massive cultural differences. In the USA you have the cheerleading culture, basically 'our team is better than yours and we're going to win' To my knowledge, not many countries in Europe have much to do with cheerleading, our chants are more humour - 'win or lose, we're going to take the piss out of you'
Hi, to be perfectly honest, it's same but different. We don't have cheerleaders, but when you have entire neighbourhood, including women, children and the elderly chanting the same song, because they heard it since nursery. You don't really need cheerleaders.
No disrespect for US cheerleaders, just different developement, for different conditions
I agree, I understand it is just British culture. When friends of mine have worked abroad, they are often greeted with shock at their sense of humour. We see 'banter' as friendly 😄
Micky Flanagan does an excellent skit during his standup about the great British art of taking the piss. Bound to be on here.
palace fans....ULTRAS

Pretty much… US fans could sit there and chant ‘we are gonna win’ when they’re 4-0 down.
You get nowhere in England without a sense of humour. The more cutting the better. I'm so proud 🤣🤣

I worked at Anfield years ago, I can well imagine.
One one occasion a woman came over to me and asked me where her seat was, without any hesitation and after I walked to the end of the tunnel with her I pointed up and I was able to give her concise and exact instructions on how many rows up and how many seats along her seat would be.
I returned to my position in the tunnel and I (what I thought was) quietly pulled my colleague up and said to him so that others (the fans around us) wouldn't hear me and I said to him.
"Did you see that then? (Colleague: No what), That woman? (Colleague: What about her?), She came over to me and showed me her ticket, (Colleague: And?), well she only had one eye, anyway, I checked her ticket to see where her seat was and I noticed how much she was charged for the ticket, wouldn't you think that since she is only seeing half the game she would only have to pay half the price"!
Well I guess at that moment I realised that I hadn't been quite as quiet as I had thought I was as the moment I gave the punch line every fan within a certain 20ft radius burst out laughing, now I swear I kind of cowered just in case either that poor one eyed lady or one of my superiors had heard me.
I did feel bad for making light of her obvious disability however, having my own physical disabilities has made me more open to addressing the humorous side of being disabled so I didn't beat myself up over it too much.

It's cos in England, a lot of the time, just one bloke will start some chant, an everyone else will join in, whereas in America it looks so forced and like they've really planned what they're gonna do! The English ones are more like topical aswell, specific incidents or people! Great video tho love these reactions 😂
It's also because we have a 150 year long tradition of watching football in the UK. Teams used to be drawn from and belonged to neighbourhoods and communities which really only began to change in the late seventies/early eighties with the increase in money both on and off the pitch. Now it's "your foreigners v our foreigners" but the wit and irreverence of the songs are still in touch with the roots of the game.

I've said it many times before, Americans are just far too positive to chant like the Brits. They instinctively chant about winning, whereas Uk chants are quite self deprecating and negative ie, it's usually about how shit something is. Self deprecation is a UK national trait :)

i think the "i believe" thing came about when jürgen klinsmann took over as US coach and publically gave a very matter-of-fact assessment about the current state of the national team, as is normal in germany. apparently, american soccer fans didn't like to hear that they weren't gonna be world champions any time soon, thus "i believe we will win." i remember this distinctly from the 2014 world cup.

Fun fact: the BBQ American chant at 8:25 is a remixed version of Vindaloo (a British football chant)
Indeed, With the humour removed.
Thought so they turned it shit 🤣🤣
Yes I know of this myself as that BBQ chant was stolen from us and it's original chant is our 3legs chant to them on the continental Europe.!
I wonder if the Americans thought they were being original, lol.
Every world cup there is an "official" song sometimes they had a music video to go with it - some cringe some hilarious.
Vindaloo was one of more popular ones.
one had the lyrics "the Germans bombed the chippy" can't remember the rest of that one (obviously this was when England played Germany) but that one did the rounds at family do's at the time - The "official" ones were usually played by djs at some point. I distinctly remember hearing that one at a wedding party.
Even Ant and Dec released one "we're on the ball"

English chants are brutal and to the point. They don't take prisoners. They'd probably be deemed too offensive for US ears. But, hey, who cares in a football ground. All part of the match day fun 😂⚽👍

In Vancouver before the Whitecaps joined MLS a certain group of fans called the Southsiders (for standing behind the south goal) got into a lot of proper chanting and pisstaking with plenty of swearing... many of them were from the UK... they're still around since MLS but they were instructed to tone it down.
They went to an NHL game one time to support the Canucks and were told to not sing constantly - cheer only after a goal - or they'd be thrown out.

To be honest, the American BBQ chant was originally an English football song that was officially released by Fat Les, called Vindaloo,
“"Vindaloo" is the debut single by British band Fat Les, released in 1998 and recorded for the 1998 FIFA World Cup. The music was co-written by Blur bassist Alex James and bassist Guy Pratt. The lyrics were written by comedian Keith Allen. The song was originally written as a parody of football chants, but was adopted as one in its own right and became a classic.”
🇬🇧😎👍🏼
I loved the - "We Want Our Dick Back" - Because it's so clearly made on the spot. And it's so funny to.
During the World Cup a while ago, England played America and America had recently had a massive oil spill and loads of beaches were closed.
So during the game, the English fans decided it would be a good idea to start chanting “YOU’RE NOT SWIMMING ANYMORE”
Oh my gosh...lol
I have to agree with them. It indeed WAS a good idea to chant that.
Thats hilarious.
Oh thats hillarious but at Qatar 2022 during the England USA game they were doing the "i believe that we will win" chant
And we immediatly fired back with "what the fucking hell was that"
They didnt sing it again lol
I think it’s rude and offensive and I’m a number one Ricky Gervais fan. English chants are just crude and lacking in any wit or proper humour- just thugs!!!!!!!
Brilliant only people from this Island could come up with that humour it’s in our DNA.
Thank you for bringing the word 'muppetry' to my attention 🤣
The 2 chants that really epitomises the difference between the US and the UK - your 'I believe that we will win' and our 'we lose every week'. Most of the UK chants probably wouldn't be allowed in the US
Also "barbeque... we're going to score 3 more than you..." is a rip-off of the UK "vindaloo... we're going to score one more than you"
Whoever ripped that off totally missed the understated and humble confidence it comically portrayed , and thought "hell! We are going to score more than 1 more.. Make it 3!"
But why stop there? If you are going to totally miss the comedy of the comment, why ? Why not 9 or 10?!

Yes. One fan will start and all the others will join in. People will start randomly singing whenever. I love it. Football in England is such a big part of everyday life it’s unconceivable. Also the BARBEQUUEEEEE chant is actually a song made in England called vindalooooooooooo.

When some clubs have existed for 130 years and more, you have tradition, team culture and attachment. That's something that will never arise when your teams are franchises that hop from town to town. People don't go to the stadium to watch a game (like you would go to watch a movie), they go their support their team. Without that you et that lack of intensity. I remember US basketball players who've been active in Europe saying that entering the court felt like entering a warzone, especially in Greece and Turkey.
Spot on its a tribal regional thing hence insults about rats in slums, no jobs in Liverpool, Man Utd fans being from anywhere other than manchester
Box o Nothing... People in Britain "don't go to stadiums to watch a game" we go to the ground to watch the match.....
I worked out the fundamental difference between US soccer chants and UK Football chants.
US chants like army chants, one person shouting and a few others repeating.
UK chants are more of an organic thing.
A few people start and bit by bit everyone joins in until you have the entire fans of one team repeating the chant.

FYI. THE 'Barbecue' chant started here, but it was Vindaloo (as in the type of curry). It was a song, written by Alex James (of Blur) and sung by Fat Les. It was written for European Championships, can't remember the year, 96? Same year as Baddiel, Skinner and the Lightening Seeds recorded their anthemic, Three Lion's, song. It never caught on as big as hoped, Three Lions outdid it. But it seems to have migrated and changed lyrics. The video for the original, Vindaloo, is on RUclips. Maybe worth a reaction.
Alex and Guy wrote the music, Keith Allen wrote the song
Slight correction : Vindaloo was for the France 98 world cup the lines "Me and me mum and me dad and me gran We’re off to Waterloo" refer to that at that time you caught the train to France from Waterloo. A reaction to football songs over the years would be great
@@Westcountrynordic For some reason lots think it was writtent for the Euros and came out at the same time as Three Lions

But the fans were all singing Three Lions.

I've been to a few games in the USA (I'm from the UK) and in truth it's not quite as bad as shown here usually, but the USA very much goes with the 'ultras' style of supporting, which can be good when it works, but tends to be a bit one-paced. I think US sports fans are also a lot more polite, plus the lack of away support means you don't get the back and forth between fans that you can get here.

classic as always!! The chant to the tune of the Adams Family, is about the town where i live.. Kiddereminster. Ive forgotten how many times ive heard that chant now, lol.... they always shorten it to Kiddy !!
Should listen to when the Fans are singing songs tunefully ... for example, Liverpool: 'You'll never walk alone' ... It is quite moving when tens of thousands are singing in unison, whether or not you support the team ...
Lots of historic chants with meaning to them are also sung.
The difference would seem to be that their Team is actually passionately important to UK fans and the fans communicate outside of the actual game itself ...
The best football song is Hibs adopting Sunshine on Leith. When they sung it at Hampden Park after winning the Scottish FA Cup after a 125 year wait, it was truly epic. Obviously, as a Saint's fan, When the Saint's go Marching in" gets me too.
These are pretty tame for the UK - the home teams especially up North are very good for their fans chants, and the UK fans in stadium (it's calmed down a lot since heavy restrictions were put in place but we do still have our fair share of hooligans) are pretty tame compared to the Ultras of Eastern Europe. The atmosphere during those games makes it feel like you've accidentally gone to war. Really gets your primal lizard brain pumping.

Agree 💯%, the Saville ones are amusing af.
As a fan of the British game, I got to say I thought that Kansas City supporters chanting Barbecue was actually halarious and well thought out. It's a Kansas take off of an actual England song called "Vindaloo" from the 1998 world cup.
Give the American fans their due, at least they are trying, here in the UK, we have been doing this for a lot longer, we've had a lot more practice, we've been playing football and cheering team in one form or another for centuries, I think you might find it interesting to look up "the atherstone ball game", or the "Sedgefield shrove Tuesday ball game", the original forms of football, and might give you an idea of the cultural heritage that goes into our modern game today

The last video about Tottenham is made more special as that was Jack Wiltshire (ex arsenal) with the rest of the Arsenal Team (Spur Rivals) leading the chant. He got fined for it though. The bit you barely hear at the end is he says "Thank you" and the supporters all reply "That's alright"
He`s a legend!
I honestly haven't laughed as much in weeks! I'm English and our football chants are at least funny and build up the stands! Your reaction to the American ones is hilarious 🥳🇬🇧
That's not the English flag...
🏴👍
You’re right but to be fair the whole British isles share a similar sense of humour
4:02 lol you had ne rolling thanks for a great laugh , great vid btw!👍👍
That was a bit unkind, referring American fans to lamb chops, I’m sure the lamb chop took great offence to being compared to an American football fan!
🤣
You had me crying 😂 quality reaction vid
Oooooh, superb reaction 😂🙌🏻! I had more fun watching your reactions than what was going on in the video 🤣🤣🤣!
Loving your reaction at the US chants. If they came over here. We would slaughter them. Your reaction is brilliant. Love it. 😂😂😂😂😂😂
dude when the USA team come to play England in the group stages of the world cup, you won't hear the USA fans over ours
😂 Hey, the guys from Seattle and Atlanta were at least trying. 😂
The Barbeque chant originates from the Vindaloo chant which came from an England song that was made for the 1998 World Cup. Here's the original m.ruclips.net/video/va6nPu-1auE/видео.html
Always makes me smile watching this, I live just round the corner from where it was filmed :)
A lot of these songs are even funnier when you realise the context behind them too...
This video is absolutely priceless. I haven’t laughed so much in ages.. to see your face going red with embarrassment and all your comments were hilarious.. thank you so much for brightening up my day, I was cringing with you but at the same time my stomach was killing me, I just could not stop laughing I had to press the pause button to gather myself together . Brilliant 😂🤣😂 by the way you don’t half remind me of Robbie Williams
What is interesting is that I recognized tunes from 19th century Opera, traditional country music, television themes, advertisements and pop songs Some are common around Europe (such as the March from Aida and Tournadot). In the '80s I mentored a group of students studying "Football Hooligans" their data was used in submissions to a Government report. The Taylor Report. At the time I was working at the University in Portsmouth while attending matches a my club Southampton (Scummers , arch rivals to Pompey fans)
I think there's a really good cultural/musical/historical academic paper to be written about the origins of football chants and how they evolved.
I work with a woman whos a pompey fan when she found out I am a Southampton fan, we started calling each other scummer and skate
King... Been watching you for ages. This is a classic. Face close up to camera in total disgust at the pitiful home offerings. 😂😂😂😂
I loved this as a fellow Brit 😂 I wish more Americans got into football but I’ve seen some content creators start to watch it and enjoy it. Universally loved is the beautiful game ❤️
