Bruins goal song needs an update

I find the noise level is off the charts in the rink with all the dumb music blasting at every opportunity.

Not to mention the enjoying voice of the girl doing promo's

I am old so I get to complain about these minor things lololol

It is awful.

As for the song, current is fine or anything that motivates the crowd. None of the nonsense like Toronto's last one. Not for a sports celebration.

I mean I would love if their goal song was “Caves of Altamira” by Steely Dan because it’s my favorite song of my favorite band, but I also realize that it isn’t going to happen. And there’s plenty of good music out these days - the Top 40 in the 70s had artists like Barry Manilow and Captain and Tenille all over the place too.

What’s wrong with the goal song? So what if they’ve been using it for 20 years? Like it or not it’s become a tradition.

And what are they going to replace it with anyway? In my opinion, at this point, nothing else would sound right. The paying customers at the Garden seem to like it well enough.

With the new era of the bruins upon us I agree with others that the current song should be new as well.

Not like the song has any special connections to New England or the Boston area. It’s not an iconic song from a known band.

No need to keep trotting it out

 

[Gordoff]

Don’t tell me what to do


Fun fact:

The first sign of getting old is hating all the new music.

I prefer to call it "maturing with dignity."

 

[SPLBRUIN]

Leafs just scored and are playing Panama from Van Halen.

 

[Trizz617]

I’m ok with this. We probably have to play something from the 70s to make everyone happy anyways. Adults don’t like new music. It’s a scientific fact

Lets say they did change the song and went the 70's route? I could dig some "foreplay/long time' or some 'sweet emotion". A bit of Boston flavor would be cool.

I’d rather not have a song sung by a guy who talked about getting guardianship over a 16 year old so he could take her on tour with him.

Maybe that’s just me

Rock and Roll man,

 

[JEM28]

I was thinking Sammy Hagar could pen a new song. How about:

“We Can’t score Five on Five” after each power play goal?

 

[KrugAvoy]

I wish they'd bring back the train horn goal horn they had before the current fog horn sounding one

 

[Fenian24]

Gotta be one of those early 2000’s new england metal bands with a hidden gem of a goal song in their catalogue.

Killswitch Engage has gotta have something.

Holy diver cover

I'm fine with Zombie Nation it doesn't bother me.

Some thoughts though:

To go local (and annoy all the anti-Boston haters)

The chorus to Smash S^&r Up by Dropkick Murphys would work nicely, but is prolly a no due to mild profanity (even though the fans shout far worse at the game)


Trying to think of a Godsmack sound that isn't worse.

 

[UConn126]

I'm still upset they got rid of Rock n Roll pt. 2. Iconic stadium song.

duuuh na na nana HEY! duh nana na na

Love the idea of the Brass Bonanza, thought that was a great goal song, they stopped using it in Hartford when Brian Burke took over.

Brass Bonanza is all kinds of wonderful, but it's still too attached to the Whalers for the Bruins to use it - the Canes still trot it out every now and then when they wear the old green uniforms. Plus it's the sound of a certain era that probably wouldn't work full-time in 2023. One of the great goal songs though.

Agreed.

It was a fun, New England novelty when the Red Sox started trotting it out.

It’s not for the Bruins.

They kind of had no choice due to the gary glitter of it all

Time to Go - Dropkick Murphys

 

[BigBadBruins7708]

well they kind of do. Glitter gets no royalties from the use of the song.

Convicted pedophile Gary Glitter will not receive music royalties from 'Joker,' report says

The inclusion of Glitter's 1972 hit "Rock and Roll Part 2" in the R-rated comic book film had sparked an intense backlash from moviegoers.

Could use the MBTA song, the Dropkick murphy's version

Yeah can definitely understand why the Bruins would not use it, especailly as you say it was known as the Whalers song.

It's the reckoning
