Seven Nation Army on Gamedays

Why do the Bills always play this song on gamedays?  The song is 20yrs old and, as far as I’m aware, has zero relevance to Buffalo. 
 

In my opinion, playing this song comes off as tacky, outdated and simply put:  embarrassing. 
 

1. Why do we play this song?

2. Who is responsible for selecting the playlist on game days. 
 

Any info would be greatly appreciated. 

 

I think of this song more for Ravens game days.  They've featured the Seven Nation Army tune for as long as I can remember going to that Stadium, which is many years.  I don't recall it being used in Buffalo until well after.  So I think the Bills jumped on the bandwagon which many teams have done.

Bills should be playing more TOOL on 3rd downs, seems they get a stop every time they play Sober!

 

NE played a ton of TOOL inside Gillette on defense through the Brady era and they seemed to do pretty good.

I saw the White Stripes at Blackpool Winter Gardens. One of the best live gigs I have ever been to. 

 

Aso for the people who don't think it is a classic... well I'm gonna fight 'em off, 
a seven nation army couldn't hold me back!

Thank you! I saw the White Stripes on a tiny stage many moons ago and they blew me away. (One of my wife's best friends produced their first two records too.)

It's the professional version of every school in the US playing thunderstruck before every game in the 90s and some to this day. 

I remember the days they used to play Thunderstruck and Crazy Train by Ozzy at the stadium all the time

I mean, would you prefer “Song 2” by Blur? Its possibly the one song played universally at sporting events more than 7NA, but that’s more of a “Soccer Football” thing than a “Gridiron Football” thing.

 

That was more of a Sabres thing here in Buffalo

I'm 60+ and had never heard of this song til right now. Just went to YT to check it out, and it's pretty much garbage, IMO.

 

They play THAT song at every Bills game?! Yeah, I'd question it too.

 

I call shenanigans.  Nobody over 60 shorthands youtube to YT.  Nice try kid.

I’ve thought this for a while, it’s played out. I don’t really care all that much, but when I’ve heard it, the thought that it’s overplayed has crossed my mind. Thus it needs to go! 

I would like to start a petition. This is an important matter. We cannot go into the new stadium playing this song. 😊

I remember that from FIFA on PlayStation back in the day.

No one tell OP how old The Shout Song is.

I’m personally Okay with that tradition. That’s why it’s important to have this convo lol. Do we really want to make Seven Nation Army into a tradition. We can do better.

My friends and I call it the white trash chant 🤣

We assumed it was a Buffalo thing, but yesterday I noticed Baltimore using it.

We are in fact, white. Just to clarify. 

Personally hate the White Stripes and that hipster alternative/retro crap that came out like 15-20 years ago,  but it's a fun chant. 

Who started it?

Now you'll have an urge to watch old David Bronstein - The Prince of Love dating infomercials.
