@@calvinhicks1992 Appreciate the sarcasm. In football we either win or lose and I only care about watching them play now. Accepting that will make your fan life way more chill. Cheers!
Never been to London, have no association with London! But everytime i hear this, there’s tears on my eyes. From a kid watching magic of Bergkamp in an old tv in the family hall in Bangladesh to crying at Wengers last match, to getting complaints from neighbours for screaming after every goal , the love for Arsenal never dampened. No matter where we are ,how we are , Arsenal will always be my club! My Arsenal , My love!
I’m die hard arsenal and I’ve seen fans say about this being the anthem before games and it’s the first time I’ve listened to it and the chorus just gives me the most insane goosebumps thinking of this being belted out before games, imagine it before UCL next year 🤩❤️🤍❤️🤍
NorthLondon forever ...Whatever the weather.. These streets are our own ..And our hearts will leave you never... The arsenal forever.. Will be our home
I'm a Man United supporter but I have to admit one thing... This is the most beautiful song I've ever heard performed by football fans. The song itself is absolutely amazing and with thousands voices at the stadium it's even more incredible... Massive thumb up.
Leeds United fan here. Heard the Gunners fans singing this recently pre-match and had to find the song. Absolutely great. Moved me to tears. Well played. 😊 👏
I'm a South African gunner, I was born into a house where Arsenal was the only way allowed. I've never set a foot in North London. This song hits home because we're all the same. Regular people who bleed RED, the colour of North London lives in all our hearts. COYG
As a North Londoner living abroad, this song had the tears rolling down the cheeks. I miss the bricks, the shops, the people. I miss the excitement of walking down Holloway road on the way to the pub on a Saturday night. I miss taking the bus from Archway station every morning. I miss catching the first rays of summer in Waterlow Park. I miss donning my blazing red and proudly marching to beers before every game. I miss London. Thank you for this mate ❤🤍
Same, mate. But don't miss waiting for the 253 to Hackney on a freezing January morning. That's what I think about when I get homesick. That was the worst.
Same here, live in Cornwall now, this brings back so many memories, i don't mind admitting the tears did flow, proud to be a gooner, no matter where i am.
Thank you for reminding me of my culture and heritage,from a Essex Boi and as a endangered native to a fellow endangered Cockney like yourself,thank you,best wishes to your family and stay safe out there mate,Much love
Iam a lifelong Liverpool fan ..but a musician too ..this is such a beautiful song ..watched the Arsenal v City game and heard the crowd singing this ..gave me goosebumps..had to find out what it was ..
I was there that day. It took a while for the Emirates to take to this song but you can feel we are starting to love it and one day I hope it becomes a fraction of the iconic you’ll never walk alone.
I think its great that there are still young people who want to pay attention to their local culture, appreciate it and try to revive it when it feels like its slipping away from them.
3-0 Away at Brighton today, and amazing run of form to start 2024. My favorite moment today was the reaction to Gabriel's stoppage time block to keep the clean sheet. mentality monsters! North London Forevvvvvvvvvvver
"North London forever Whatever the weather These streets are our own And my heart will leave you never My blood will forever Run through the stone" COYG love hearing this as the new Anthem at the Emirates !!!!
I’m a 44 year-old American who grew up in the Missouri Ozarks with next to no knowledge of London. But at 13, I became an Arsenal fan thanks to Dennis Bergkamp. Hearing this song is truly a magical link with all you Gooners across the globe. Louis, you painted all our lives and hopes and sorrows with a beautiful brush no matter where we come from. Thank you.
Whatever happens on Sunday, I'm proud of the team. They fought hard until the end and that's all we could have asked for. Our time will come again soon ❤.
Played a blinder this season. Worst case, we took Citeh to the final day of the season. Yeah, we faltered in Decemder, and at home to Villa, recently, but they too struggled in games they should have dominated. We took 4 points off them too. COYG!!
As an Indian Arsenal supporter, I finally got to visit an Arsenal game in the Emirates for the first time this season on the Boxing Day. This song in the stadium was the most beautiful thing I experienced that day apart from Arsenal's football and Arsene Wenger visiting for the first time post-retirement. Never watched a match in Anfield when Liverpool fans sing YNWA but even if I do I will always have a bias for this one. Even though I am not from London, a lot of these lyrics generate a common feeling for working people in various global cities with their ever changing dynamics and a real special one for Arsenal fans. The streets are our own ❤❤
You are Arsenal mate no matter where you come from up the Gunners you belong to all of us and when we win the league you contributed with your support North London forever ❤
As a West Ham fan, I think this is bloody decent...well done Louis...I grew up only a few miles away in East London and the memories are very similar just with those subtle differences. Glad you got it played pre-game and I hope it becomes part of the gameday furniture at the Emirates...I might not be North London but I can appreciate a London lad doing well...

My mother gave me randomly a shirt from Arsenal with Fabregas on the back when we were on Holliday in spain. I was 11. But ofcourse my brother needed to mock me so decided to support man u after that for a while which made me support Arsenal fiercely. Im from the Netherlands but since then ive always had Arsenal in my heart and besides seeing arsenal going downhill ever since ive never lost that feeling of love to Arsenal. This song hits me deeply after 17 years, im not born or raised in Londen or the UK but, My heart will leave you never! Cmon Gunners!!❤
Liverpool bottled it , if anyone. Anyway, if you're not a Citeh Fan, who are you to talk. Are you a Middx Trophy Dodger? If so, just jealous, so remember North London is Red!
North London forever ♾️, because of Thierry Henry, Patrick Vieira,Arsene Wenger I became a Gunner for life when I was 9 yrs old and to see us now on the cusp of winning the league and in the champions League quarters is a great sight to behold. Trust the process, trust Arteta,Edu and the board but above all TRUST THE GUNNERS OF NORTH LONDON ❤❤❤❤. All the way from South Africa🇿🇦 to the world 🌎🌍
North London forever...Whatever the weather... These streets are our own.. And our hearts.. will leave you never The Arsenal forever... Will be our home.
what are you talking about a five year old do a batter job it is crap, and we have a club anthem already it is called, "Good Old Arsenal", you can listen to it by visiting this youtube video ruclips.net/video/QUncUQn7P20/видео.html so why do we need another one. Good Old Arsenal has been a club anthem since 1971 at least. Learn your history FFS
@@warrensteamtalk no need to spam every comment, it's a great tune and the whole stadium was singing it, good old arsenal is still a classic but a four year old could probably write that one.
@AnimeDaisuki dz dissapointed but more so at rivals attempting to banter us when we were the only team trying to disprove the myth that the prem is a farmers league.
As a Danish gunner, it was my first time ever at The Emirates yesterday and it was just a speciel, speciel moment for me to be part of the singing of this amazing song before and after the game. Incredible.
As an American gooner, I can't relate to the feelings many of you North Londoners feel when the lyrics hit just the right spot and the memories flood in... but I can feel the passion in his voice and I can relate to the love of your hometown... and I am so damn happy the Gunners have a new anthem that makes the supporters feel such an immense passion. Time to put Spurs to bed on Thursday!
@@fredadams6239 at least Arsenal has always been in London. Wasn't Tottenham in Middlesex until the 60s? Probably shouldn't go on about South London when you weren't London until the government said you were. Hahaha.
My best mate was a die hard Arsenal fan and he sadly left us in 2012. Buried in his Asrenal top and the Arsenal badge on his headstone, I know he would of loved this song. Made me cry listening to this thinking of him. I really hope you win the league this year for him and that's coming from a Man Utd fan. So much love and respect for this song. Miss you Paul ❤

I am from Colorado in the US but I've always felt a special connection to North London and this club. I know that everyone doesn't accept this song but it does create a togetherness for everyone around the globe. COYG
They played this song before and after the game today vs Leeds. My god we have a new anthem, I couldn't make the lyrics but it was booming around the Emirates. I know them now, ready for the Everton game.
If a miracle does occur and Arsenal actually do manage to win the league, I think Louis deserves to ride with the team in the open bus top parade. No one has managed to bridge that gap between the team and the club since Thierry Henry. It's still very early days, but starting to believe that something amazing can happen, just like this song has done for the entire club. Arsenal has never been so united since we we're in Highbury Edit: 23/24 We go again!
@@johnnysmith80 you're joking right!?!?! I'm beyond ashamed of that lot! They've never once done a positive thing for this club. The only thing they did was profit off our worst years by making us an absolute laughing stock!
@@DontMentionMyName11 have you even been on their channel do you even know how many fundraisers and charity event they have streamed. Even when representatives from Chelsea Tottenham Man Utd Leicester Man City join. Do you know how many worldwide fan join and are connected!???
My Uncle's last words to me were “be lucky” the day before he died. Even tho we’re from Clapham South London this song represents every borough of London. We all have our own Manor and Memories and Older Generations. I wish my uncle got to hear this song being a lifelong Arsenal fan. London Be Lucky Forever!
My loving dad a lifelong Gooner passed away just away just before this song was released. Would loved to have been able to play this at his funeral as a fitting send off. Every time I hear this my eyes well up at his memory.
I've no affiliation with London or North London (from Dublin)... But this song always gives my goosebumps... I'm delighted Arsenal play it before their games.. The crowd should be belting it out.. Proper Anthem
We've had a tough season Newcastle but I hope you win a trophy this season. I have a soft spot for Arsenal it was my first team I supported before I supported my beloved Newcastle United@@leehoward1935
I couldn't care less about the football, I just love watching the video. The people make me smile, the memories of times gone by and the authentic London snap shots. Thanks for sharing, Louis.
I'm 61 years old and my family are from Kentish town. I now live in Queensland Australia and this song has tears streaming down my face. absolutely love it EIE
I’m Kentish Town born and raised, 30years old and currently visiting Australia. Even though I’m back soon, this still makes me emotional and miss home!
I have never lived in London. Never set foot in the city. I have only watched and supported Arsenal on television in India. Then why do I have tears of joy and pride running down my face when I hear this song here and being sung by a million voices in the stadium? - North London Forever - Come on you Gooners - Merci Arsene - Thank you Arteta!
Because you are Arsenal mate I wish one day you get to the Emirates I loved Highbury but this new generation of players and supporters are making things happen North London forever and you belong with us mate❤
Youre not alone bro, same happened with me, supporting all alone here in india from 2007, i am feeling so special connected to this club and people i never seen , love you ARSENAL, COYG❤
I really want Arsenal fans to sing this song every match. I'm from Russia and I get goosebumps from this song, I've been rooting for Arsenal for a long time and I'll sing with you friends through the broadcast. Arsenal is starting a new era, we will succeed. COYG🔴⚪️
Islington Gunner, know most if not all of the locations shot in the song. But it doesn’t matter if you’re 5 minutes or 5 hours away; this song makes those who bleed arsenal come together. We’re on our way back to the top, and this absolute tune has helped bring the fans and the club closer together again, so thank you Louis❤
Brilliant sentiments mate for those that can't get to the ground we are supporting the boys and we sing in the ground because you can't but no matter where you are in the world North London forever Iam 67 years of age and I truly believe if we don't win the league this year I will never see it again in my lifetime ❤
Mate, the verses might be a bit wordy, but what they contain hits right into the heart. I think when the people learn the lyrics, the whole song will be an anthem for THE ARSENAL for years to come.
This song always brings a few tears to my eyes. I’ve lived in north London my whole life (39 years come May) and will love the place till the day I die.
great comeback, bitter-sweet feeling at the end, feels like pressure is at man city side, everyone thinks they already won the title. I have a feeling this is going to be 1989 again, when Arsenal had to beat Liverpool at Anfield by 2 goals difference to snatch title from them (even tho we were top of the league for most of the season). Great season whatever happens :)
I'm an Arsenal fan from North London and I've converted my American girlfriend to be a Arsenal fan. I showed her this song and she came out of the blue the other day and said she wants the instrumental of this song as she walks down the isle when we get married next year 👍🏻
My mind and body may be in New Jersey but my heart has been in North London for over 3 decades now. I sing this song loud and proud every Gunners game day from almost 4,000 miles away.
Wow. Average people just cant understand, rival fans cant understand what it means to be an Arsenal fan. Its a love story, its a lifestyle. Thank u Arsenal for this love, for this chance to feel part of this big family. I love arsenal so so much Love u my gunner family from Armenia 🇦🇲😊
This was the first song I learned on my guitar. I’m Scottish and live in Livingston and I’m only 11 and yet I feel like I get every thing he is saying. I might not be able to relate to it and this song is the best song I’ve ever heard. My dad cried when he heard me play it and I love this isn’t song so much. Louis you are an absolute legend.
in my 23 years never stepped foot in London but still sing the chorus with all my heart. One day I will watch the lads at the emirates and sing this with the rest of my Gooners in the stands. COYG
The best thing about this song is this: it best describes what it means to be an Arsenal fan because it’s not just about a football club but about an area, Community and about an escapism from the everyday that my daddy installed in me. The worst part for me is that my father passed away before he ever heard it. I love you dad, Arsenal FC and louis for everything.
Born in Hanley Road Hospital in Stroud Green, Arsenal and North London in my DNA. Live in Devon now but seeing those London faces and hearing those accents took me back…pretty emotional. Mate you’ve given Arsenal its soul back.
I am a die hard Arsenal fan, I have supported the gunners my whole entire life and I plan to do so till the day I take my last breath on this earth. I am from South Africa and I have not yet watched the Arsenal play live but whenever this songs plays I feel so close to the boys. It is such a beautiful song. COYG.🔴⚪
I'm from small town in India. Been a Gunner since 2005. Small things connect bigger things. From around the globe, same roof. We bleed Red. North London is Red forever. ❤️
Gooner from Armenia! Can't wait to see my club winning the league!! ♥️ buzzing from the thought that it can become a reality in a less than 7 weeks! 😭 COME ON YOU ARSENAL
I don't have the words to express how much I love this song. I'm a Gooner from across the pond. Born and raised in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and there's so many parts of the lyrics with which I identify. The last time I was at The Emirates for a game, this song had not been recorded. Can't wait until I get back to London and sing this incredible tribute to North London with my fellow supporters of THE ARSENAL. Come on, you Gunners and well done @louis_dunford!!
Only been to north London a few times as an American, and it's been about 20 years. Haven't been to Ashburton Grove for a game, just Highbury. Regardless, this song damn near makes me tear up as an Arsenal fan. Love this club and all my fellow Gooners. Class, tradition, history. Oil money can't buy them, and Arsenal epitomizes all 3.
Wish Arsenal lift the trophy this season and this Song is played at that time....Cant wait for the goosebumps alll over my body ....That feeeeling will be next level 😊😊

Lyrics :
As I walk these streets alone
Through this borough I call home
Upon the baron fields of Highbury,
Neath the stadiums of stone
Through the turnstiles at The Angel
See the homeless on the green
From The Cally to The Cross
And every Shithole in between
Pass the church, the mosque, a crack den
And the offie on the corner
See the brasses from the brothel
That pretends to be a sauna
Watch the bedlam in the bookies
See the winners and the losers
Seeking solace from their sorrows
In the local battle cruisers
Through the madness in the market
Weathered faces turn to greet ya
"Hello guvnor, how's your mother?"
"You alright son, be lucky geeza"
Double pie and mash and liquor
A Cuppa Rosie Lee up chap
Or watch retired gangsters bicker
Everyday in Arthur's cafe
The little fuckers causing trouble
For the cozzers make you smile
You meet ya muckers for a couple
Forget your troubles for a while
From The Thornhill to The Hemmy
All the faces are the same
Cause the manor might be changing
But the people still remain
North London forever
Whatever the weather
These streets are our own
And my heart will leave you never
My blood will forever
Run through the stone
As I walk these streets alone
Through a kingdom made of Chrome
I see them ripping up the cobbles
And tearing down our childhood homes
I see the architecture changing
Watch the history disappear
And the skyline rearranging
Into towers of veneer
But I see the remnants of the London
That they thought they could erase
Every time I hear the old school
Talk about the good old days
Or every time I watch the football
Or have a ruby with the lads
See an hoister selling clobber
Or a dealer shooting bags
It's in the single mothers, juggling a baby,
And a job, in every single brother
Struggling that wound up on the dock
It's in the roots and the foundations,
Still clinging to the land
It's in the bricks that built the Morland
And Popham that still stand
It's in my family and my friends
In every gram and every Benz
It's in the roots that we inherit
When a generation ends
It's in the ruins of your youth
And the faces of your past
Cause the manor might be changing
But the people always last
North London forever
Whatever the weather
These streets are our own
And my heart will leave you never
My blood will forever
Run through the stone
Love it 😀 😍 ❤️

Liverpool bottled it , if anyone. Anyway, if you're not a Citeh Fan, who are you to talk. Are you a Middx Trophy Dodger? If so, just jealous, so remember North London is Red!
North London forever ♾️, because of Thierry Henry, Patrick Vieira,Arsene Wenger I became a Gunner for life when I was 9 yrs old and to see us now on the cusp of winning the league and in the champions League quarters is a great sight to behold. Trust the process, trust Arteta,Edu and the board but above all TRUST THE GUNNERS OF NORTH LONDON ❤❤❤❤. All the way from South Africa🇿🇦 to the world 🌎🌍
Getting goosebumps listening to this in India as an Arsenal fan! Need the chorus as an anthem at the Emirates! COYG ♥️
North London forever...Whatever the weather... These streets are our own.. And our hearts.. will leave you never The Arsenal forever... Will be our home.
Wherever you are, if you’re Arsenal you’re always welcome
Wah kya scene hai
what are you talking about a five year old do a batter job it is crap, and we have a club anthem already it is called, "Good Old Arsenal", you can listen to it by visiting this youtube video ruclips.net/video/QUncUQn7P20/видео.html so why do we need another one. Good Old Arsenal has been a club anthem since 1971 at least. Learn your history FFS
@@warrensteamtalk no need to spam every comment, it's a great tune and the whole stadium was singing it, good old arsenal is still a classic but a four year old could probably write that one.
No matter where I end up, North London will always be home. Thank you for this song!!!!!!
...and West Virginia.
Yer defo you know that
Listening to this after we win against Tottenham really makes this song even more special ❤
It so is 😭 I love this club so much and I know this year is special
@@TheMothdemon Honestly didn't expect us to do this brilliantly this far into the season but i love the team we've built
as a united fan, respect, nice anthem brothers.
@@sammyhayes883 What about now Sammy. We will do it. The emptihad is the last bastion we need to break down.
@AnimeDaisuki dz dissapointed but more so at rivals attempting to banter us when we were the only team trying to disprove the myth that the prem is a farmers league.
As a Danish gunner, it was my first time ever at The Emirates yesterday and it was just a speciel, speciel moment for me to be part of the singing of this amazing song before and after the game. Incredible.
Hope to see you back at the Emirates soon! COYG!
skulle have været inde og se everton kampen men så blev den udskudt
I may have been sitting near you ! Was it the Leeds game in 21/22 season
How do you buy tickets?
Typical Arsenal Fan
Irishman here, Arsenal supporter with strong London connections. Song gives me goosebumps every single time ❤️⚪️
As an American gooner, I can't relate to the feelings many of you North Londoners feel when the lyrics hit just the right spot and the memories flood in... but I can feel the passion in his voice and I can relate to the love of your hometown... and I am so damn happy the Gunners have a new anthem that makes the supporters feel such an immense passion. Time to put Spurs to bed on Thursday!
We ain’t done it but with the power of people like you and gooners we will read a bedtime story to them soon 👍😂
😬⚪️🔵⚪️
That went well 3-0 and your probably not aware it has nothing to do with the arse, they are from woolwich (south LONDON)
How’d that go for ya u mug
@@fredadams6239 at least Arsenal has always been in London. Wasn't Tottenham in Middlesex until the 60s? Probably shouldn't go on about South London when you weren't London until the government said you were. Hahaha.
As a Gunner, I have never felt more proud than ever. Hope this can be sung at The Emirates every game
My best mate was a die hard Arsenal fan and he sadly left us in 2012. Buried in his Asrenal top and the Arsenal badge on his headstone, I know he would of loved this song. Made me cry listening to this thinking of him. I really hope you win the league this year for him and that's coming from a Man Utd fan. So much love and respect for this song. Miss you Paul ❤
The chorus needs to be blasted from the stands at the arsenal it’s perfect! 🔴⚪️

@@warrensteamtalk Go touch some grass
@@warrensteamtalk That song stinks
@@pekoe1878 yes then I will cut it and give it to you to smoke as you are obviously on drugs mate because if you want to support that shit you must be
@@antidotek7078 if you are talking about this Arteta love fest song you are 100% spot on
I am from Colorado in the US but I've always felt a special connection to North London and this club. I know that everyone doesn't accept this song but it does create a togetherness for everyone around the globe. COYG
Hippo..we Gooners accept you as a Arsenal FAN you are inducted into the ArsenalFamily
COYG
❤2ALL
✌🤜🏾
Born in 1994, I started supporting in 2000-2001, 23 years have gone by, feels like yesterday. COYG.
They played this song before and after the game today vs Leeds. My god we have a new anthem, I couldn't make the lyrics but it was booming around the Emirates. I know them now, ready for the Everton game.
If a miracle does occur and Arsenal actually do manage to win the league, I think Louis deserves to ride with the team in the open bus top parade. No one has managed to bridge that gap between the team and the club since Thierry Henry.
It's still very early days, but starting to believe that something amazing can happen, just like this song has done for the entire club.
Arsenal has never been so united since we we're in Highbury
Edit: 23/24
We go again!
That would be a lovely sight.
AFTV bridge that cap. They have captured worldwide supporters. It still a good song.
@@johnnysmith80 you're joking right!?!?!
I'm beyond ashamed of that lot! They've never once done a positive thing for this club. The only thing they did was profit off our worst years by making us an absolute laughing stock!
@@DontMentionMyName11 what and other clubs fans don’t complain when they lose. Look at manutd Chelsea rants etc then come back and understand
@@DontMentionMyName11 have you even been on their channel do you even know how many fundraisers and charity event they have streamed. Even when representatives from Chelsea Tottenham Man Utd Leicester Man City join. Do you know how many worldwide fan join and are connected!???
My Uncle's last words to me were “be lucky” the day before he died. Even tho we’re from Clapham South London this song represents every borough of London. We all have our own Manor and Memories and Older Generations. I wish my uncle got to hear this song being a lifelong Arsenal fan. London Be Lucky Forever!
My loving dad a lifelong Gooner passed away just away just before this song was released. Would loved to have been able to play this at his funeral as a fitting send off. Every time I hear this my eyes well up at his memory.
Sorry for your loss x
Your life must be sad if yous capping about deaths of loved ones
I've no affiliation with London or North London (from Dublin)... But this song always gives my goosebumps... I'm delighted Arsenal play it before their games.. The crowd should be belting it out.. Proper Anthem
I am a Newcastle United fan but I love this song. I am going to hear this when we play you on Saturday. It is a great song.
As a geordie aswel a love this song al of his are canny. But big river or Blaydon races can't be out done.
Thanks.😁
It's the same we beat you that game though
We've had a tough season Newcastle but I hope you win a trophy this season. I have a soft spot for Arsenal it was my first team I supported before I supported my beloved Newcastle United@@leehoward1935
Absolutely beautiful. Islington and Arsenal forever 🔴⚪️❤️
Arsenal& highbury for ever
Coyg ❤🤍
If London had a soul, Louis Dunford is it's voice.
Please check out more of his music he is honest to God poet of the people.
Thank you so much for such a lovely comment. Be lucky x
Can't get more London than this lad, fucking AMAZING!!
if thats the case his soul must have been taken by the devil
@@warrensteamtalk Or, yours might get expired tomorrow you absolute helmet.
North Londons poet ❤
I couldn't care less about the football, I just love watching the video. The people make me smile, the memories of times gone by and the authentic London snap shots. Thanks for sharing, Louis.
I'm 61 years old and my family are from Kentish town. I now live in Queensland Australia and this song has tears streaming down my face. absolutely love it EIE
Up the Gunners, EIE!
EIE
I’m Kentish Town born and raised, 30years old and currently visiting Australia. Even though I’m back soon, this still makes me emotional and miss home!
You must know the clarks?
I have never lived in London. Never set foot in the city. I have only watched and supported Arsenal on television in India. Then why do I have tears of joy and pride running down my face when I hear this song here and being sung by a million voices in the stadium?
- North London Forever
- Come on you Gooners
- Merci Arsene
- Thank you Arteta!
Because you are Arsenal mate I wish one day you get to the Emirates I loved Highbury but this new generation of players and supporters are making things happen North London forever and you belong with us mate❤
Because you are a gunner❤️ COYG!!!!
Youre not alone bro, same happened with me, supporting all alone here in india from 2007, i am feeling so special connected to this club and people i never seen , love you ARSENAL, COYG❤
I m too bro. Same here
Whatever the weather ❤️ Always gonna love this club no matter what❤️
North London forever
Whatever the weather these streets are our own
And my heart will leave you never
My blood will forever run through the stone
I really want Arsenal fans to sing this song every match. I'm from Russia and I get goosebumps from this song, I've been rooting for Arsenal for a long time and I'll sing with you friends through the broadcast. Arsenal is starting a new era, we will succeed. COYG🔴⚪️
This song is more than just football. It's so well written. It strikes a chord of life in England thru childhood to Adulthood.... .
NORTH LONDON FOREVER RED 🔴
Islington Gunner, know most if not all of the locations shot in the song. But it doesn’t matter if you’re 5 minutes or 5 hours away; this song makes those who bleed arsenal come together. We’re on our way back to the top, and this absolute tune has helped bring the fans and the club closer together again, so thank you Louis❤
Brilliant sentiments mate for those that can't get to the ground we are supporting the boys and we sing in the ground because you can't but no matter where you are in the world North London forever Iam 67 years of age and I truly believe if we don't win the league this year I will never see it again in my lifetime ❤
That brings tears to my eyes. North London forever indeed
Mate, the verses might be a bit wordy, but what they contain hits right into the heart. I think when the people learn the lyrics, the whole song will be an anthem for THE ARSENAL for years to come.
Jijookjuhihjhihihi
Can't stop listening to this tune. This needs to be blaring out at the Emirates.
It was today, jheez could barely cope
@@warrensteamtalk Sounds like a thomas the tank engine intro
@@davidbeckham good old arsenal is rubbish
@Herbie Wares yes amazingly shit and irrelevant
@@antidotek7078 if you are talking about that Arteta love fest song you are 100% correct
Love this track! Even if ur not a fan u cant not like this! ARSENAL FOREVER ❤❤
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤arsenal love never dies!!! North london forever❤
This song always brings a few tears to my eyes. I’ve lived in north London my whole life (39 years come May) and will love the place till the day I die.
North london is never far away, one day I’ll be there ❤
Here after the 3-3 v Southampton. And my heart will leave you never, Arsenal
great comeback, bitter-sweet feeling at the end, feels like pressure is at man city side, everyone thinks they already won the title. I have a feeling this is going to be 1989 again, when Arsenal had to beat Liverpool at Anfield by 2 goals difference to snatch title from them (even tho we were top of the league for most of the season). Great season whatever happens :)
@@warhammertwcontent5655nope you are bottle jobs
Played before and after the game at the emirates today. Love it
Louis you made something beautiful for the people of Islington. ❤
North London is RED!
All of London is red ❤
Louis, you are about to hit big time fame with the Emirates crowd blaring this now!
Gem of a song
I'm an Arsenal fan from North London and I've converted my American girlfriend to be a Arsenal fan. I showed her this song and she came out of the blue the other day and said she wants the instrumental of this song as she walks down the isle when we get married next year 👍🏻
My mind and body may be in New Jersey but my heart has been in North London for over 3 decades now. I sing this song loud and proud every Gunners game day from almost 4,000 miles away.
What a time to be an Arsenal fan. COYG!!!!
Aaaaand you bottled the league
I'm a united fan but no denying this song reminds me of my childhood living down south. Properly hits 👌
Wow. Average people just cant understand, rival fans cant understand what it means to be an Arsenal fan. Its a love story, its a lifestyle. Thank u Arsenal for this love, for this chance to feel part of this big family.
I love arsenal so so much
Love u my gunner family from Armenia 🇦🇲😊
Amazing..... London is red 🔴
Its the roots that we inherit when a generation ends.... The Angel will always be home wherever i roam, to love ones lost 🍺cheers, COYG
North London forever,
Whatever the weather,
These streets are our own,
And my heart,
Will leave you never,
The Arsenal forever,
Will be our home
Nice chant
This was the first song I learned on my guitar. I’m Scottish and live in Livingston and I’m only 11 and yet I feel like I get every thing he is saying. I might not be able to relate to it and this song is the best song I’ve ever heard. My dad cried when he heard me play it and I love this isn’t song so much. Louis you are an absolute legend.
We go again next season! COYG forever in my heart❤️🤍
in my 23 years never stepped foot in London but still sing the chorus with all my heart. One day I will watch the lads at the emirates and sing this with the rest of my Gooners in the stands. COYG
Proud to be Gooner, well done boys, we have come a long way, north london forever
The best thing about this song is this: it best describes what it means to be an Arsenal fan because it’s not just about a football club but about an area, Community and about an escapism from the everyday that my daddy installed in me. The worst part for me is that my father passed away before he ever heard it. I love you dad, Arsenal FC and louis for everything.
Born in Hanley Road Hospital in Stroud Green, Arsenal and North London in my DNA. Live in Devon now but seeing those London faces and hearing those accents took me back…pretty emotional. Mate you’ve given Arsenal its soul back.
I am a die hard Arsenal fan, I have supported the gunners my whole entire life and I plan to do so till the day I take my last breath on this earth. I am from South Africa and I have not yet watched the Arsenal play live but whenever this songs plays I feel so close to the boys. It is such a beautiful song. COYG.🔴⚪
Who's here on the last day of the season 2023/2024 ?? COYG!!!!
Let's goooo
Yess coyg
COYG!!!!
After the Everton game I couldn't be more proud of the team. Arsenal forever!
yess COYG, North London is Red
I'm a Liverpool fan bit this song gives me gossebumbs
Me to
They can blow their bubbles and never walk alone but we will be north London forever
Such a filing and satisfying song...arsenal forever...north london forever❤❤❤
Mate, I was born in Islington and grew up in Wood Green. I'm a Gooner, too. Thank you so much for this. We're gonna win the league, mate.
This club is going places and everyone can sense it.
I'm from small town in India. Been a Gunner since 2005. Small things connect bigger things. From around the globe, same roof. We bleed Red. North London is Red forever. ❤️
North London is 🔴! Forever!
Gooner from Armenia!
Can't wait to see my club winning the league!! ♥️ buzzing from the thought that it can become a reality in a less than 7 weeks! 😭
COME ON YOU ARSENAL
This song has brought my club together. This song has recharged the stadium and is leading our charge 🔴⚪️
american gooner, can’t express the love i feel from this song about a place i haven’t been yet. i’ll sing my lungs out at the emirates one day.
I don't have the words to express how much I love this song. I'm a Gooner from across the pond. Born and raised in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and there's so many parts of the lyrics with which I identify. The last time I was at The Emirates for a game, this song had not been recorded. Can't wait until I get back to London and sing this incredible tribute to North London with my fellow supporters of THE ARSENAL. Come on, you Gunners and well done @louis_dunford!!
Only been to north London a few times as an American, and it's been about 20 years. Haven't been to Ashburton Grove for a game, just Highbury. Regardless, this song damn near makes me tear up as an Arsenal fan. Love this club and all my fellow Gooners. Class, tradition, history. Oil money can't buy them, and Arsenal epitomizes all 3.
Wish Arsenal lift the trophy this season and this Song is played at that time....Cant wait for the goosebumps alll over my body ....That feeeeling will be next level 😊😊
