Sing When You’re Winning: The Story Behind Liverpool’s Most Iconic Terrace Songs
Long before football had prawn sandwiches, VAR reviews, or billion-pound broadcast deals, it had singing. And nowhere in English football has that tradition run deeper, or lasted longer, than on the Kop. Liverpool’s relationship with music isn’t a marketing add-on or a matchday gimmick — it’s older than most of the club’s trophies, and it’s […]

From Carousel to the Kop: The History of You’ll Never Walk Alone
Most Liverpool supporters could sing You’ll Never Walk Alone in their sleep, yet a fair few would struggle to tell you where it actually came from. The answer surprises some people. Before it belonged to the Kop, it belonged to Broadway, with the journey it took to get from a New York stage to the […]

I Just Can’t Get Enough: The Luis Suárez Song
Some players you sing about because they win you things. Others you sing about because you cannot take your eyes off them when they play, whatever the scoreboard says and whatever they have got themselves into that week.

Running Down the Wing: The Sadio Mané Song
There are songs that get bound up with one particular season, so that hearing them again drops you straight back into it. The Sadio Mané song is one of those. Sing it now and it is impossible not to think of the spring of 2019, the run to Madrid, and one of the best Liverpool […]

Sim Señor, Give The Ball To Bobby And He Will Score: The Bobby Firmino Song
Some chants are funny because they exaggerate and the Bobby Firmino song is a lovely example. It calls him the best in the world and promises he will score every time you give him the ball, neither of which was ever quite true. That was the joke, though, and the crowd loved him all the […]

The Trent Alexander-Arnold song is a rare one that came with a formal request attached, with the man doing the asking being the manager himself. The result stuck almost instantly, largely because it summed up in […]

By Far the Greatest Team The World Has Ever Seen, And it’s Liv-er-pool
There really aren’t that many songs that Liverpool supporters actively choose to sing that are effectively the same as those sung by other sets of supporters when you break it down and look at it.

We Are The Champions, Champions of Europe – Not A Song Many Clubs Can Sing
There are some songs that not every football team gets to sing. In fact, there are some that the majority of football clubs’ supporters will never get to sing, such is the extent to which Liverpool have outstripped virtually all of them. One of the main ones on that front is a song about being […]

Mo Salah, Mo Salah, Running Down The Wing – The Egyptian King
It is fair to say that Liverpool have had some brilliant players lining up for the club over the years. The Reds have been blessed with some of the best players ever to play the game lining up for the home team at Anfield, with the Kop more than happy to sing their praises whenever […]

Oh When the Reds, Go Marching In – Classic Kop Song
There aren’t many songs that Liverpool share with other football clubs, apart from those that the Reds brought over from European competition before being stolen by other sets of supporters. It is weird to hear Arsenal fans singing a song to the tune of We’ve Conquered All of Europe when, at the time of writing, […]
