5.0 out of 5 stars A must-have CD for all Norwich City fans, 8 Dec 2000
Heritage, fans' tribute songs and memories that come flooding back when you listen to this CD, which my family does on every car journey to see Norwich City play, it's a real mood-setter. I remember hearing the song 'The Canaries' (track 2) always being played over the tannoy before kick-off since my first trips to Carrow Road in 1972/3, and 'Something to Shout About' (track 4) being sung by the team in the 1980's which included Dave Watson and Steve Bruce among others. My personal favourite is the 'Ballad of Crossan and Bly' (track 12) which gets the heart strings going even though it's a song about football, it's a nearly-made-it story about the 1959 FA Cup run when Norwich reached the semi-finals as a 3rd Division team and beat some of the big names along the way including Matt Busby's Manchester United side (although it was post the Munich air crash). Also on the CD is an audio documentary about that famous cup run including interviews with some of the players and fans involved and their own personal recollections. However, the BEST reason to buy this CD is that it includes the oldest, continually-sung football song ever, 'On the Ball City' (track 1) which you will still hear sung today at every single Norwich City match home or away, despite being written nearly 100 years ago. On the Ball City, never mind the danger, steady on, now's your chance, Hurrah, we've scored a goal! (it doesn't happen too often - but we sing it all the same!)

5.0 out of 5 stars A 'Must Have' for all Canaries Fans!, 8 Dec 2000
By A Customer
Okay, this CD may not contain the best songs in the world - not even by football's very low standards - but it does manage to bring together an eclectic mix of tunes and reminiscences from several generations of Norwich City fans.

The CD contains two wonderfully different versions of the Club's anthem, after which the CD is titled. The Barclay Boys may use a different tempo nowadays, but the song is essentially unchanged since its origins in 1905 - the earliest purpose written football anthem still sung on the terraces (well, stands) today?

It also collects in one place the songs for various celebrations such as promotions and cup runs, with a variety of styles from Calypso to Rock n Roll via Pop! I'm probably on a couple of the tracks - which use samples from the Barclay!

I'll even admit that the Ballad of Crossan and Bly brough tears to my eyes!

But the last two tracks will keep the memories City's gratest achievement alive for new generations, and that alone makes the CD worth owning!

Never Mind the Danger! MLS
