Did they get this idea from Family Guy? Causr they definately make a joke about cavemen singing
I think they got it from the terraces at the County Ground.

That's if you can accept the fact that footie fans are Neanderthals in disguise.

Our main chant is singing "Paulo Di Canio" in an operatic falsetto.

To be honest though it hasn't got anywhere near smashing wine flutes just yet.

You would have thought they would have enjoyed 'rock' music more than opera. :whistle:

And what did they use for sheet music .A Fred Flintstone stone slab with notes on it .
I am dubious .I'm more apt to believe real Klingons has opera.

I've no idea what football fans listen to on their I-Pod.
You can't really use me as an example.
But your missing an obvious opera anthem specially adapted for footie..
Nessun Dorma which sits head and shoulders over the rest.
Didn't you see that little concert they laid on before the 1990 World Cup Final featuring the Three Tenors?
You know Pavarotti and his Spanish amigos.

I do not believe in Neanderthals per say, or should I say if we were Neanderthals, then Aliens seeded us, and Bam, we became Humans. The missing link is Alien DNA.

sing for your supper?     i can imagine a singing language based on pitch and tone and durations   rather than  hard (consonants) and  soft (vowels) sounds.
