VFL Football theme 1979 - Up There Cazaly

Музыка

Channel 7 Melbourne asked advert jingle writer Mike Brady (Two Man Band) to pen a football song for their replays.
The song became so popular that Channel 7 released it as a single and it quickly shot to No.1 in the Melbourne charts during the 1979 finals series.
As a result of its Melbourne success it made the national Top 40, which probably left Sydney rugby followers wondering who Cazaly was.

I picture brothers in arms here, in a pub, just having a good time! And even as a Kiwi, this to me, this song, it's the GREATEST sports song - in the WORLD!! It had me in tears quite literally, and I AIN'T ashamed to say it! This song here, it is jam packed FULL of passion, pride, power and emotion!! Well done Mr Brady!! You deserve PLATINUM for this!! When I first heard this song from a mate of mine, it just was stuck in my head for days, not hours, but DAYS! And I didn't want it gone! Man, God Bless Australia!! And thank you Mr Mike Brady for your masterpiece here!! It is incredible!! All the best, from New Zealand!! 👍♥️🏆🏆

    Up there Cazaly - Roy Cazaly (13 January 1893 - 10 October 1963) was an Australian rules footballer who played for South Melbourne and St Kilda in the Victorian Football League (VFL). He also represented Victoria and Tasmania in interstate football, and after his retirement as a player, turned to coaching.

    Now there's a classic! Was a kid at the time, and used to have to 7" single of this song. Does anyone remember the variant that used to be shown occasionally at the start of the Saturday night replay? It started with Mike Brady singing on top of the scoreboard at VFL Park, if I recall, and opened with the words "There's a song that is sung through the length of the land..."

    I like the first line of this song "You work hard to make a living, but when the weekend comes around, you do whatever turns you on. Get out and clear your mind". "Me, I like football. There are a lot of games around, but when you line them up together, the footy wins hands-down". This is how footy should still be. These days, we have political issues, and the "outside world" encroaching on footy, when footy should be escapism, to forget the troubles of the week, and your biggest concern is how your team will play, and if they will win or lose. Keep the fun in football, and political correctness out of it.
