10) We’re Gonna Beat Your Sports Team – Parry Grip
Although this song is only a clip of less than half a minute, it really gets the fans prepared for the rest of their rock n roll sports song experience! The artist really only sings about what’s in the title, with a little variation added. A sure-fire rock n roll clip to stir up the fans. Price is $0.99.
9) I’m a Man – Spencer David Group
Sometimes the music is enough to get you going for a good sports song. When I was in school, our marching band played this song at the games and was sure a crowd pleaser. I get as much enjoyment today as I did then when I hear this song played at sports events. Price is $0.99.
8) Kiss Him Goodbye – Steam
You may know this as the nah nah nah nah hey hey hey goodbye song. This oldie-but-goody can get fans joining in singing. A sports team can feel very supported and confident when the audience is singing to a selected sports song choice. Price is $0.99.
7) Long Train Running – Doobie Brothers
Another one of those songs whose lyrics don’t necessarily have to be related to sports. Our marching band has played this for games, and the fans have been very responsive on joining in. This makes it a great sports song. Price is $0.99.
6) Another One Bites the Dust – Queen
Did you expect me to choose a different Queen song? A couple of the other ones are listed on everyone’s best sports songs lists. I prefer the heavy beat in this choice to really rile up the fans. Not only that, it can give confidence to the team that they’re really going to kick some opposing team booty. Price is $0.99.
5) Final Countdown – Europe
This could be used as a sports song against the opposing team, letting them know that it’s their “final countdown”. Audience participation is very positive during the well-known chorus. Our high school marching band plays this from the stands as one of their sports song choices, and I’m always happy to hear it. Price is $1.29.
4) We’re Not Gonna Take It – Twisted Sister
I chose this as a great sports songs for a couple of reasons. First of all, it psyches the team up so they won’t let little set-backs hamper efforts at a win. And it sure does whip up fan enthusiasm. This is another one of our high school marching band “stand songs” that gets the audience rockin’. Price is $0.89.
3) Welcome to the Jungle – Guns n Roses
This is an awesome choice aimed to lower morale of the opposing team. It will let them know they have a hard job ahead of them if they want to beat your team. The crowd will be jammin’ along to this rock n roll sports song. Price is $0.99.
2) Rock and Roll All Night – Kiss
Not only will the audience surely be joining along on this all-time rock favorite, but it gives the team a boost that they can go the distance, no matter how long it takes. This sports song boosts endurance for the long game ahead. The audience participation adds to that encouragement. Price is $0.99.
AND MY NUMBER 1 ROCK N ROLL SPORTS SONG IS:
1) Rock n Roll Part II – Gary Glitter
No rock n roll sports song list is complete without this absolute favorite. Although most people include this on their sports songs lists, it’s because it’s such an audience favorite. This song has become so associated with sports, it’s almost hard to imagine the days when Gary Glitter used it in his musical performances. If you don’t recognize the title, it’s because you may know it as “The Hey Song”. Lots of good music interspersed with the audience yelling “hey” at the right time. Our high school marching band also plays this as well, with lots of positive audience and team response. Price is $0.99.
