The Islanders Goal Song: How about 'New Moon Rising'?

Seriously, I do hate that Hawks one and the Rangers one for the same reason — but not because of my feelings for those teams: No singalongs, no do-do-do’s, no fireside kumbayas. This is hockey. Those songs just don’t fit.

But Gary Glitter’s song never did anything for me — to me it’s a tired song that was “replacement level” at best during its peak. I could handle “New Moon Rising,” but now I’m going to hunt for something better.

A horn, an organist, and the crowd’s roar is always my first choice, though.

For BC and anyone else doing FanPosts: I moved stuff around on this a bit so I could front-page it. For the main page, I generally move videos and big images after the jump because those tend to slow loading on the homepage.

As a rule, I try not to mess with everybody’s FanPosts, but when promoting them to the front page I might make little changes to conform it to the site style.

One of these days, I’ll get around to posting a guide and tips for using all the gizmos, but in the meantime … I’m lazy.

Wow, for some reason I always thought the Isles song was a knockoff of Gary Glitter’s song. Never realized it was an actual song.

I love the Foghorn, And I gotta say listening to the Islanders current song brought back a lot of good memories. Plus I dislike wolf mother, so the old one gets my vote. It would be nice if they could get a version of it thats a bit more uptempo though.

I believe that “The Fixer” by Pearl Jam wouldn’t be out of line. After hearing live I think it has it’s charms to it. It gets the crowd going, it is about being positive and the fixer just fits with the Isles current situation IMO.

Although they could do a special song for the playoffs and of course you will be right there watching in the ninth OT period of Game 7, remember?
