Argentine culture is for export, as are sports. But among the cultural manifestations that emanate from these lands, perhaps the music stands out and then, as a subgenre, the field songs, the ones dropped from the stands.
Over the years, melodies with lyrics adapted to the twisted soccer legend, have occupied more and more important places on the “boards” of Chilean, Uruguayan, Colombian stadiums, etc.
This Saturday, in Liverpool, when fans of Jürgen Klopp’s team were waiting for the Champions League finals against Real Madrid, they reminded their players that “you never walk alone”, as is tradition and a registered trademark, but instead gave them a special request: “Give joy to my heart”. Upon discovering this, Fito Páez published a video on his Instagram account with Liverpool fans singing the melody of his song “And give joy to my heart” to encourage his team in front of a giant screen on preview of the grand final.
The musician shared a video of the fans ’songs and wrote “It’s so beautiful !!!”.
In the video, a crowd was heard on the street in front of a giant screen singing a song that Páez made in 1990.
Also remembered for the Mercedes Sosa version, the theme became popular in the soccer atmosphere with contributions from Uruguayan Peñarol fans and then Boca Juniors, who usually sang its modified version in important matches against River Plate.
The end result cut short the demand of “reds” fans to their players, in a season where, more titles, fewer titles, they are the stars in every competition they face. Hence, therefore, the recognition of post-match fans, both in the Paris stadium and on the streets of the city where The Beatles were born.
