was just discussing with ManUtd.USA how a cover band's version of Tom Petty's 'Won't Back Down' last night summed up our season so perfectly that it prompted all the United fans in the bar to stand up on their stools and wave their scarves!

so now i wanna make an album of songs to follow United by...any suggestions?

Tribute by Tenacious D dedicated to Ruud.


"Needless to say, the beast was stunned.
Whip-crack went his schwumpy tail,
And the beast was done.
He asked us: "(snort) Be you angels?"
And we said, "Nay. We are but men."
Rock!
Ahhh, ahhh, ahhh-ah-ah,
Ohhh, whoah, ah-whoah-oh! "

In fact Wonderboy by Tenacious D as well. This one dedicated to John O' Shea. :D
"Wonderboy, what is the secret of your power?"

Tom Petty - I Won't Back Down lyrics

Well I won't back down, no I won't back down
you could stand me up at the gates of hell
but I won't back down

Gonna stand my ground, won't be turned around
and I'll keep this world from draggin' me down
gonna stand my ground and I won't back down

Chorus
Hey baby, there ain't no easy way out
hey I will stand my ground
and I won't back down

Well I know what's right, I got just one life
in a world that keeps on pushin' me around
but I'll stand my ground and I won't back down

Hey baby there ain't no easy way out
hey I will stand my ground
and I won't back down
No, I won't back down

But didn't all the United fans in there consist of just you and your mate - it's hardly the Stretford End is it? ;)

and a few hundred of her closest friends packed into the bar. Could be close enough to the Stretford End, noise wise. Call it Streford End West maybe ;)
