Favourite Loyalist Songs

[rangersfc77 170]

I have to admit im not as clued up on some of the Loyalist songs as others, i do like them but they are not as familar to me as Rangers songs like Follow Follow, Every Other Saturday, Blue Sea of Ibrox ect. Im assuming Derrys Walls is classed as a Loyalist song and TFS certainly sounds like it so id pick those as my favourites :

I am one of the bores who categorise ORANGE MUSIC sash, Derry's wall , dolly's brae, green grassy slopes etc LOYALIST MUSIC no 1 platoon loyal heart daddies uniform etc RANGERS MUSIC follow follow, billy boys blue sea etc Loyalists generally listen to all some Rangers fans just like Rangers Some Orangemen not many just like Orange Hope I have not complicated the issue to much oh and bleeding liberals listen to feck all incase it offends their selves

I generaly like most songs sung at games and on my Rangers tapes or what i find browsing YouTube, the OP mentions 4 Lads Had A Dream as a Loyalist song to me thats a purely Rangers song as its about the Founding Fathers but tbh if its sung by the bears its all good in my book

Not a 'loyalist' myself but really don't see why BP9 makes such a big deal of this as it's pretty clear that lots of Rangers fans are into this and it is somehow connected to the club. Just ignore these threads if all you're going to do is complain and whinge about it.

I think BP and myself 'moan' about it because, right or wrong, many of the songs previously mentioned are banned.

They are likely to get our club fined or worst still points deducted or banned from competition. I accept many bears have loyalist tendencies I just hope they keep it under wraps during rangers games that's all.

As much as I love TBB, i wouldn't say it's about the club itself. Follow follow and the blue sea of ibrox are more about the club.

They are though...

That's why they are posting it on an online forum dedicated to the subject. Nothing to do with 'singing it at the game'.

I go most weeks Rino (unfortunately unable to grab a ticket today) and a lot of these songs do get sung. Both outside and in grounds. Mostly away from home to be fair.

If it bothers you that much take it up with people at the game. No point in doing it in a thread that's causing no bother.

Old school - Green Grassy Slopes of the Boyne. Always reminds me of the Eleventh Day/Night.

Someone always had this on record and would be blasting out of their stereo with the speakers in the front window.

Actually the OP never mentioned singing at football matches so NONE of the songs mentioned are banned.

OP asked "What is your favourite loyalist song?" but the handwringers make it about football matches or songs that they are 'banned' at football matches. Twisting a question to suit their own agendas.

You're correct, sir.

As for the opening post, Fourstep Volunteers is a fantastic song.

It just so happens that it was penned by a member of Vanguard Bears, who has written several others.

As we stand today, neath skies so grey,

feel the wind all around blow cold.

To remember those, we hold close,

for their story is seldom told.

Brave young men, who gave their all,

and stood firm throughout the years.

Brave young men, one and all,

the Fourstep Volunteers.

These men they do their duty,

with courage in their heart.

No compromise shown to the foe,

who've torn this land apart.

For this union they hold dearly,

that flag they'll fight to save.

For free men they would rather die,

than be a free state slave.

Brave young men, who gave their all,

and stood firm throughout the years.

Brave young men, one and all,

the Fourstep Volunteers.

So search deep within your soul,

for that spirit burning bright.

One day that spirit shall arise,

to tell the world we're right.

To take up arms, defend this land,

defend our noble cause.

Our culture and our heritage,

our freedom and our laws.

Brave young men, who gave their all,

and stood firm throughout the years.

Brave young men, one and all,

the Fourstep Volunteers.

So when you feel that shiver boys,

go running up your spine,

It's just the men who've gone before,

standing by your side.

For now we're all together,

so proudly raise your heads.

For the wind that blows around you boys,

is the Battalion of the dead.

Brave young men, who gave their all,

and stood firm throughout the years.

Brave young men, one and all,

'C Company Volunteers.

Englishman's betrayal and hands across the water stand out for me.

Four lads had a dream in the Rangers section also takes some beating.

And for sheer volume and to strike fear into our enemies-sing along now-HELLO,HELLO,WE ARE THE BILLY BOYS!
