Talk:The Liquidator (instrumental)

Football use

This is very biased towards Wolverhampton Wanderers FC. --81.174.250.220 23:02, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

Would you find it useful? To put here WAV sound - a part of Liquidator song as the background for claping and singing "Chelsea" at the Stamford Bridge stadium. 85.132.151.252 (talk) 17:29, 28 October 2008 (UTC) Hondrej

The first side to use this song is unsourced. Only some notes from a record support Chelsea. I have removed other claims until some reliable references can be found.--Egghead06 (talk) 18:50, 4 April 2014 (UTC)

A google search for who was first to play the song at a football match will show a range of clubs with Chelsea, West Brom and Wolves the main three which will appear. The problem is, the sources aren't deemed to be reliable enough to quote on wikipedia, but it seems clear that there are definite claims from all three clubs. I therefore think that West Brom and Wolves should be reinstated as claimants in the main article. 97rob (talk) 16:15, 1 May 2014 (UTC)

Also, there doesn't appear to be any proper reference for Chelsea's claim to being first. 97rob (talk) 16:18, 1 May 2014 (UTC)

But as the first skinheads were West Ham fans rapidly followed by those of Chelsea in 1968 and this was released in early 1969 and was an original skinhead classic it seems obvious that Chelsea were the original adopters. Chelsea were already pretty synoymous with skinheads by the time this was a hit.

Can't see a reliable source for anyone being the first, if indeed anyone even knows who was the first. We are talking 1969 after all! As we are dealing with football teams, nearly all references are from blogs or club chat pages - useless. Would suggest we reference the teams that use it (Wolves, WBA, Chelsea etc.) until a reliable source verifies the first user at football matches?--Egghead06 (talk) 19:39, 1 May 2014 (UTC)

Yeah, seems the best thing to do. Chelsea currently use it every home match, West Brom have started using it again in the last few matches, and Wolves don't currently use it (West Brom and Wolves were banned by West Midlands Police as it got fans to swear). Not sure about how much its used for other clubs, though. 97rob (talk) 22:03, 1 May 2014 (UTC)

Is "The Liquidator" a song?

The title of the article is "The Liquidator (song)". However, it has no lyrics and, as a result, cannot be sung. How, therefore, is it a song? Sincerely, SamBlob (talk) 01:07, 2 December 2009 (UTC)

"A song is a metrical composition intended or adapted for singing", but "singing is the act of producing musical sounds with the voice". Haven't you ever sung "nah nah nah"?

The non-flippant answer to your question would be that the correct naming convention to use on this article would be "(instrumental)". Done. — Hex (❝?!❞) 04:17, 2 December 2009 (UTC)
