GREAT theme! Very excited to listen to these!
You mentioned “Get Ready 4 This” at the beginning of this episode as one that was too played out even for sports stadiums. Made me laugh… we still open every football game with it at Kansas State. It’s the song that gets the pregame started each week and the whole stadium chants “K – S – U – Wildcats!” to it. When I was in college in the late 90s it seemed way too outdated, but it hasn’t ever changed.
Love the riffs from “Gimme The Prize” mixed into that “We Will Rock You” cover.
Great show! One basketball song that I don’t think you mentioned would be “One Shining Moment”, which CBS plays to death during the NCAA basketball tournament.
Seven Nation Army has already gone sports global. Manchester United fans sing it every game inserting the name of Robin van Persie instead of the woah part. It’s just another great footballer chant.
Not really an arena song, but I think of Basketball Jones as a definite anthem like Boys of Summer. Admittedly, it’s a pretty old song…
Good choice of tracks but please don’t repeat the theme too often as I don’t think that my delicate English ears could cope with Justin again for a while!
Very disappointed that you didn’t include The Timelords (aka The JAMs) version of Rock and Roll Part II:

Half-way through listening to this one and enjoying the s— out of it! JRY is hilarious and he really knows his music. I agree about the contradiction of such a gay icon (Freddie Mercury/Queen) having music associated with such macho sports.
Best episode ever….great driving music….wow!
