Why and when?

Question

Was that 'orrible song "Swing low sweet chariot" or whatever it's called, adopted by the English Rugby fans as it really gets on my nerves

Answer 1

I know what u mean! i think it was adopted after the last 6 nations, but im not sure. I really dont understand why these songs are adopted by football/rugby fans and teams and then played continuously untill everyone is pulling their hair out!

Answer 2

so just for you here it is

Swing Low Sweet Chariot

I looked over Jordan and what did I see

Coming for to carry me home?

A band of angels coming after to me

Coming for to carry me home

chorus Swing low, sweet Chariot

Coming for to carry me home

Swing low, sweet Chariot

Coming for to carry me home

If you get there before I do

Coming for to carry me home

Tell all my friends I'm coming home too

Coming for to carry me home

Sometimes I'm up, sometimes I'm down

Coming for to carry me home

Yet still my soul feels heavenly bound

Coming for to carry me home.

Answer 3

its not a horrible song its pretty nice actually and it originates from america from the black slaves who use to sing in the field. Music was there way to express themselves and uplift their spirit. So though you prob know little about it the song has more meaning than what you think.

Answer 4

I love that song, my hubby has it as his ring tone.
