The unofficial AFC Rushden & Diamonds messageboard
https://www.afcdiamondsforum.uk/
About 2000. There were too many complaints from ex Rushden Town fans that we were using Irthlingborough Diamonds theme tune. :evil:jimbobjaw wrote:I only remember "Diamonds are forever", when did we stop using that :oops:
I know you suggested a tune from the 90's - but was it the one you hear at the start of this video - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4mXvWQYdung ? I can remember that being played for years (unfortunately it cuts just before the instrumental bit).BartonRaz wrote:The music that used to be played before and after Diamonds games during the mid-late 90's. It was on Radio Diamonds too when the programme went off-air at about half 5. Never heard it anywhere else but at Diamonds games.
Anyway, my old man has got it on cassette, and played it today, absolute classic!!!!
Reminded me of the old days, and Darren Collins inparticular.
We used to play a funeral march before gamesdavealbon wrote:I know the song you mean, it had no lyrics, but the tune went "Daa daa daa daaaa. Daa daa daa daaaa. Daa daa daa daaaa. Daa daa daa daaa. Da da daa, daa, da daaaa. Da da daa, daa, da daaaa. Da da da da!" Does that help?! :oops: :lol:
:oops: ;) :lol:That first song is Samba De Janeiro, a fairly well-known song, so probably not it.Formic wrote:I know you suggested a tune from the 90's - but was it the one you hear at the start of this video - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4mXvWQYdung ?

The other instrumental they played quite a bit was "Sandstorm" by Darude - but again this would be later than you were suggesting. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ZXPP7qMSz4

Isn't there a version of that with lyrics?
Something like....you have to laugh, or else you'll cry...?
Or am I thinking of something completely different?
Definitely a case of having to laugh or else you'd cry :?Harry wrote:That's the one. :lol:
Always reminds me of Ernie Tippett. :?
