Songs Associated with Specific Teams...

[Lament]

This randomly popped into my head today when Another Bites the Dust came on and I instantly thought of the Chicago Bulls playing this at the end of every home victory. I started trying to think of other songs I associated with specific teams, and began to wonder what other ones were out there. I've started compiling a list below. Let's keep stuff like We Will Rock You and Rock & Roll Part II that are literally everywhere out of it. Also, I'm omitting songs that are written about teams. I'm sure a lot of these songs will come up for multiple teams, but whatever...

Another One Bites the Dust - Queen: Chicago Bulls
Sirius/Eye in the Sky - The Alan Parsons Project: Chicago Bulls
Na Na Hey Hey, Kiss Him Goodbye - Steam: Chicago White Sox
Don't Stop Believin' - Journey: Chicago White Sox (Specifically the 2005 team)
Chelsea Dagger - The Fratellis: Chicago Blackhawks
Jump - Van Halen: Chicago Cubs (Specifically the 1984 team)
Sweet Caroline - Neil Diamond: Boston Red Sox
Shipping Up to Boston - Dropkick Murphys: Boston Bruins
Seven Nation Army - The White Stripes: Baltimore Ravens
Bang the Drum All Day - Todd Rundgren: Green Bay Packers
Jump Around - House of Pain: Wisconsin Badgers
Fix You - Coldplay: Montreal Canadiens
I Love LA - Randy Newman: Los Angeles Lakers

Beer Barrel Polka - Frankie Yankovic: Milwaukee Brewers
God Bless America - Kate Smith: Philadelphia Flyers

New York, New York, Frank Sinatra - NY Yankees

Anything by MC Hammer - Oakland A's

[Harry Lime]

Sirius/Eye in the Sky - The Alan Parsons Project: Chicago Bulls

I just refer to that as the Michael Jordan era song.

That's understandable, but they've never stopped using it, so that's why I just associate it with them as a whole. But yeah, it obviously wasn't the same when Ray Clay was belting out "EDDY CURRY" or "JAY WILLIAMS" over it.

Hail To The Redskins - The Washington Redskins

Spoiler: show

Is this racist?

Jump - Van Halen: Chicago Cubs (Specifically the 1984 team)

That seems pretty insensitive, given everything Cubs fans have been through.

For a long time, both the Broncos and Chiefs used Gary Glitter's Rock & Roll Part 2 after a touchdown, but after he got caught fooling around with kids in Southeast Asia the NFL kept pestering both of them to change it. Broncos seem to be doing Blur's Song 2 now--not sure what the Chiefs are doing.

Clemson and LSU have adopted their versions of the below tune more so than "Eye"...

I can't believe I forgot this one. This is like the grandaddy of them all.

The Harlem Globetrotters have the best team song of all time.

The Globetrotters song is pretty awesome.

The Pittsburgh Penguins also changed their goal song from Rock & Roll Part II to Song 2.
