Roger Evans song is immortalised forever, albeit with a change in the words.
He would be so proud

We could do with handing out song sheets in the South and West. I don't think they know the words

Swansea Indepenent Poster Of The Year 2021. Dr P / Mart66 / Roathie / Parlay / E20/ Duffle was 2nd, but he is deluded and thinks in his little twisted brain that he won. Poor sod. We let him win this year, as he has cried for a whole year. His 14 usernames, bless his cotton socks.

Are we saying that that is an original Swansea song, that was never sung by any other club,before we took it over with different words?

And don't forget, You'll Never Walk Alone was originally a Celtic song.

Correct.

And while we're on the subject, I'm Forever Blowing Bubbles was a Swansea song before West Ham nicked it.

You'll Never Walk Alone was not 'originally a Celtic song'. It is a song from Carousel written by Rodgers and Hammerstein.

Roger Evans did the Rodgers and Hammerstein bit if you like - he wrote the original song, specifically for a competition done by the Post I think? to have a club song. At the time he was working in Velindre (with my father). His widow receives royalties on it when it is played.

Or even just bothered to do a quick google check.
Uses the Worlds largest encyclopedia (t'internet) and still gets things wrong

Not sure our nations teaching staff are managing to get the message across - kiddies are too interested in Fifa Football manager

If you wake up breathing, thats a good start to your day and you'll make many thousands of people envious.

Yes I know. I'm saying that Celtic adopted it as their anthem long before Liverpool got their hands (throats) on it.

And thanks for all the input guys. No I never knew about the Roger Evans thang. Very sorry. Something new every day.

To be honest, unless you were around at the time it's the sort of thing which I guess seems obvious but isn't !

Roger Evans later wrote a song that was released by the woman that used to play Vera Duckworth on Corrie :-)

You'll Never Walk Alone was written in 1945, sung by a woman in all the productions and the film of Carousel, and as such would not have been a popular song of choice with a load of beer-swilling Glaswegian ship builders.
It only became acceptable with the younger crowd with Gerry & the Pacemakers version in 1963
