GeauxSioux Posted August 27, 2013 Posted August 27, 2013 I picked this topic up from the SFI chat this afternoon. I am a New Orleans Saints fan and and have witnessed that the song Halftime by the Ying Yang Twins, gets the place rocking. I suggested this for hockey a few years ago and was pretty much told to shove off. After I thought about, I agreed. It doesn't translate to hockey. Having a football stadium full of people dancing and yelling "Here we come to get you",though, works. Oh, oh Okay, okay, okay, okay Oh Hey, I'm trying to get crunk C R U N K Tell 'em how we gonna call, crunk Tell 'em why they don't want none, crunk Tell 'em why they better run, crunk crunk, crunk Stand up and get crunk, crunk Stand up and get crunk, crunk Here we come to get you, you better get crunk Here we come to get you, a little bit more crunk Here we come to get you, you better get crunk Here we come to get you, a little bit more crunk Crank it up, that's what we gonna do Crank you up, me and my brother we came to get crunk We won't stop, we keep on comin' 'cause We won't quit, that's why we keep bringin' it Flame away and/or come up with something better.

Siouxperfan7 Posted August 27, 2013 Posted August 27, 2013 A song about "getting crunk"? I can see why they told you to shove off. I doubt the team, University and the ALerus Center want to promote a song with those lyrics!! Quote

geaux_sioux Posted August 27, 2013 Posted August 27, 2013 They had an energy drink too. Crinkly juice I believe. Quote
Let'sGoHawks! Posted August 27, 2013 Posted August 27, 2013 Please tell me that they aren't doing "Back in Black" again this year...someone....please..... Quote

geaux_sioux Posted August 27, 2013 Posted August 27, 2013 http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=crunked 1. crunked to get high and drunk at the same time You mean to tell me some rap songs are about getting intoxicated? What is the music world coming to? Gone are the days of pure clean music like we had in the 90's 80's 70's 60's 50's est. Quote
GeauxSioux Posted August 27, 2013 Author Posted August 27, 2013 http://www.urbandict...hp?term=crunked 1. crunked to get high and drunk at the same time You could likely search any word in the in Urban Dictionary and find a perverted version. For example, I took the ordinary word "running" and check out #7. I think the standard dictionary of the word crunk works better with the lyrics than the Urban Dictionary anyway.... "very excited or full of energy." Quote

"very excited or full of energy." Ok, throw out any definition for the word...that song is brutal!! More than likely the intor song has already been selected. Hopefully "Back in Black has been retired and they have come up with something that will be better and LOUDER!!!! Quote

"very excited or full of energy." Umm... Most people 30 and younger know that crunk does not mean "excited or full of energy." Here is the dictionary definition of the word skeet: a shooting sport in which a clay target is thrown from a trap to simulate the flight of a bird. Try and tell me rappers are talking about shooting clay targets instead of shooting something a bit more inappropriate 2 Quote
UND-FB-FAN Posted August 28, 2013 Posted August 28, 2013 Just need a song that builds excitement in the building, not only for the fans but also the players. It shouldn't be that hard to come up with. By this time, the intro video is likely already revised and solidly in place for tomorrow nights game; I just hope they fixed what they needed to and got it right. Personally, I think Enter Sandman or Boom would nicely. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0J_P7o10EBk http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nqWZqQXk_Ao Quote

Heck, the players can probably barely hear thunderstruck in the dome, but they can sure hear the fans. Quote

Heck, the players can probably barely hear thunderstruck in the dome, but they can sure hear the fans. Umm, yeah, builds excitement in the building for both the fans and the players. If the fans get excited then the players get excited also. Last year's entrance video barely got the fans off their feet. It was just too quiet and the song (Back in Black) didn't fit as a "build-up" song. Quote

So if NDSU changed songs(or only had the band play) the excitement level on the intro would be the same? Quote
bincitysioux Posted August 30, 2013 Posted August 30, 2013 I thought the Alerus finally got the intro right last night. Best I have seen in years. 1 Quote
darell1976 Posted August 30, 2013 Posted August 30, 2013 That into was awesome. I stood there waiting for Back in Black to start then the Welcome to the Jungle intro starts and I was like...HOLY CRAP!! They did finally get that right the only downfall is the music before the game and in between plays is too DAMN loud. Quote
homer Posted August 30, 2013 Posted August 30, 2013 Pretty excited to see the into next week. Missed it getting the family rounded up in the parking lot. Heard a lot of good things about it. Quote
UND-FB-FAN Posted August 30, 2013 Posted August 30, 2013 Intro was spot on. Crowd was really into it when the team hit the field. No complaints here. Now just need to have a good turnout and a lot of volume DURING the game next week vs. the bunny rabbits. Quote
remington_270 Posted August 30, 2013 Posted August 30, 2013 It should have played longer though. Quote
ibleedgreen Posted August 30, 2013 Posted August 30, 2013 I missed the intro last night. What song did they have? Quote

They did finally get that right the only downfall is the music before the game and in between plays is too DAMN loud. I couldn't disagree more. Its not a funeral, its a football game, I thought the PA did great the first half of the first quarter piping in music when we were on D. It seemed to stop when the game wasn't in doubt 5 min in. 1 Quote

MafiaMan Posted August 30, 2013 Posted August 30, 2013 Welcome to the Jungle Further proving that music has sucked for the past 23 years...that we still can't replace this classic. Great tune, but, dang, I was in college when Guns N' Roses hit the scene... 1 Quote
