Rome, the appeal of the Curva Sud: “Don’t cripple the anthem” – Forzaroma.info – Latest news As Roma calcio – Interviews, photos and videos
“On the road to Salerno he almost managed to block the” beautiful “and” mine “, continues the note. This is what the ultras want in view of the match at the Olimpico Cremonese
“Monday 22 August 18.30 Rome-Cremonese. We will meet again in the house for the first time. On the road to Salerno we almost managed to block the “beautiful” and “mine”. Let’s try to sing the hymn as it always has been, without crippling it!“. This is the appeal published on a Facebook page very close to South curve in view of the second championship and first at home at the Olimpico. But what does this mean? During the hymn “Rome Rome RomeBy Antonello Sold sung a cappella by the whole stadium before the kick-off, for almost a year there has been a counter chorus to the verses “Rome, beautiful Rome I painted you” And “Rome, my Rome Nun you enchant you“. In the counter-chant, the words “beautiful” And “my“. An absolute novelty that, as mentioned, was introduced spontaneously for about a year. The Curva Sud, with the message published on social media, asked everyone to do not do the counter song anymore and to return to tradition. An undertaking that has almost succeeded Salerno.
Lawyer Lorenzo also intervened on the subject, and not only Contuccithe lawyer very close to the Southern Groups, who wrote in a post: “Without wishing to erect as repositories of absolute truths, we will try to explain why they are not frowned upon by many fans – especially the groups of the curve – two themes of the moment, namely the chorus borrowed from Liverpool in favor of the new purchase Wijnaldum and the addition “bella ”-“ mine ”during the anthem at the beginning of the game. To be clearer, we must keep in mind – in order to the first aspect – that the Roma fans do not resume the choirs of the supporters with whom there is a heated rivalry. Those who keep the values of the South Curve try to prevent its derivatives and that is why who creates the choirs, who thinks the banners, whoever provides the ideas for the choreographies has – and must have – the historical memory of the Giallorossi fans. Almost never, from the heart of the curve, mistakes have been made, precisely because when someone comes up with an idea there is a control by all those who even remember the banners or choirs made by fans of lower series twenty years ago if not moreover. L’originality made – among other things that made her famous – of course the Curva Sud a point of reference That said, just as no one would ever think of resuming – if not for mockery – a chorus made by the fans of Lazio, or Juve, or Napoli, or the Milanese and so on, but in more general nobody’s, no one should ever think of it to make a chorus totally identical to the one that Kop dedicated to their former player. If done as a mockery of them, it can also be there, as long as it lasts a couple of games. If done by incitement, you therefore belong to the ranks of those who love to do the choirs for the players (and, mind you, the undersigned is not so Taliban in this regard), but it could then be appropriate to make a new one, not borrowed from social networks, because that’s what it is. Suffice it to remember that the Reds have taken away a Champions Cup in our house, that Augustine ended it on that anniversary and that even recently we had serious differences in terms of supporters with them. What do you do, sing “I hate Liverpool” and then take back a chorus of theirs?
We all come ‘next topicthat is to say the anthem of Venditti / Gepi. Personally I believe that innovations can be positive aspects, as long as they do not insist on the fundamental / identifying elements of a community.
Returning to those who were the masters of cheering, have you ever heard Liverpool’s Kop add to “You’ll never walk alone“? It is always the same, unchanging even in the rhythm and in fact continues to be – according to almost all people – the most beautiful hymn. Or, have you ever heard the fans change national anthems? “God save the queen” it’s a dogma, come on the Marseillaise and – more generally – all national anthems.
To match membership, does the practicing Christian change the “Our Father” by shouting “our” after the first verse?
We are lucky to have a hymn that is – if I remember correctly – among the ten most beautiful ever written for a football team, and it is enough to listen to those of other teams to realize it. We put the cream in the carbonara because someone likes it? Some things should be sacred, unchangeable. The starting chorus of each match is the Marseillaise, and has been like this for almost 50 years. Rome, Rome, Rome has been sung in the same way since 1975 because it is the anthem of Rome! The subjective taste – because it is obvious that those who do it have the pleasure of doing it – should in some (rare) situations take a step back, otherwise it would become legitimate, if you like reggae, to do “Rome-Rome-Rome” a la Bob Marley, or further words or, since someone likes light blue, we accept on some of our shirts that color that we can add as well as dress when we go around but that we avoid wearing, alongside white, when we go to the stadium. Obvious, we are all “fracichi” Romanists and no one denies it. However, “Rome is a faith, and the ultras those his prophets ”wrote on the walls that preceded us. And faith has fixed points, which are precisely such points because they are immutable“.
