- Thank you for watching me, a humble American, react to World's Best Football Ultras Chants
Original video: • World's Best Football ...
Thanks for subscribing for more UK reactions!
You've got to remember that most football clubs are more than 100 years old and generations of families have supported them during good and bad times so loyalty is ingrained . League's have relegation and promotion so fortunes and finances change over the years . The chants can be started by anyone and it just depends if they catch on , but there is nothing to match the atmosphere of a big game anywhere which is why football is the biggest sport in the world .
My team Portsmouth have been in the Premier league , won the FA. cup , played Milan in Europe we've also been bankrupt saved by the fans dropped three divisions , been within one game of relegation out of the league and promoted - all in the last 20 years .
Indeed! That's the way it is. Greetings from FC Erzgebirge Aue, 3rd German Division, three times german champion (in GDR), German Cup Winner (GDR). We will come back! Viola per Sempre!
shame the larger clubs in the UK have priced the loyal local fans out
That’s actually true. My team is Deportivo of La Coruña, and we’ve won twice the Copa del Rey, once the league and three times the spanish super cup, and now we’re in the third division, this is our third year in the third division, and the stadium attendance is higher than some matches of the first division
@@AlainnCorcaighthat's why you should only be allowed to sell tickets to people within a 30 min drive (further for teams like plymouth that are in the middle of nowhere)
The Ultras are a step above normal supporters. When you see the stadium on fire, it is flares going off.
Great vid.
There is no such thing as a normal football supporter.
People know these chants because it’s been memorised from a young age, my family has been supporting Southampton for generations and I’ve been raised around my team, it becomes a lifestyle and personality that you can’t let go
UTS
play up Pompey, Pompey play up!
I mean it's not hard for saints to remember 1 chant that's a fairly popular song
@@samuelpinder1215 we have other chants for Aribo, livramento and other chants about portsmouth
@@declan_jb139 why dont you use them then
It's not chaotic It's pure love and passion for your club
You should definitely react to more ultras, i have two recommendations for videos to watch: 1. "World's best football fans/ultras: EUROPE" 2. "TOP 10 LOUDEST ULTRAS IN THE WORLD" . They're gonna blow your mind
Good Choices:)
yeah much better choices than this video that where just louder jumping people but no real ultras
And ultras our way of life
@@matejagicza745 yaman casual 4 life 88
These puts the American " I believe we can win" chant to shame !!
That chant puts itself to shame 😂
That's one of the worst chants I've ever heard 😂😂😂😂
If a Video like this doesnt have a sequence of Bvb the yellow wall its a bad video. Same with Liverpool. Those are 2 of the best crowds in europe.
And the "it's called soccer" which was the yanks attempt at taking the piss, but it fell flat
Money v passion
In the USA sports is a game of money - in Europe especially football is a game of life and death.
Also the original video left out some of the actual loudest crowds. Like Frankfurt fans that in last season euroleague every opponent tried to keep out of their stadiums because they are so loud that a couple thousand of their fans outshout 40thousand+ of the home town fans - heck, the travelled from germany to camp nou in spain and at the game all you could hear was franfurt fans. Or like the teams from poland or greece or the turkey.
Unfortunately it became money in Europe too. Just look at PSG...
@@bibaoreo4355 Thats why every true fan of a club that was bought bei sheikh or russian oligarch should have moved on already. Cant support a garbage club like PSG, City, Chelsea and so on... the list is long. That why it was so great what Frankfurt achieved last year. Luckily there a still a lot of great clubs out there in every country... just dont look on those "big" names. Big names = big business, and only business.
@@bibaoreo4355 thats why the biggest supporter clubs are the smaller teams or league :) look at real supporter leauges.. like polen germany, italy, greece and compare the england and spain who realy bad when it come to suppoters :)
In most parts of the world, football is more than a sports game. The stadium of your football club is like your or the citys living room and the fans of the other team coming to your home. If your are friends with them or they behave good all is in order if not you will defend your home and your city. Mostly in derby games where two clubs which hate each othere are playing there is the most mayhem going on (for German content in English watch Conner Sullivan: Mein ERSTER DEUTSCHER FUSSBALL SPIEL! * VERRÜCKT* or DEUTSCHER FUSSBALL DERBY!! * HANNOVER*) for more European perspective: Ultra - Our way of life!
Ultras are not Hooligans but hardcore fans (sometimes they are both).
Thank you for explaining it so well!
Hannover vs BTSV Klassiker.
Ultras means fanclubs that are deep into the game. Knowing the chants is like singing songs in church is for religious people. For some games there are police groups in riot control gear just to keep the parties separated.
The reason we all know what to say is because we've supported our clubs since we were kids so we know all the club songs by heart. Every club has a few songs they sing every match. When there is an improvised song its usually to the beat of a very well known song so it just takes a few people repeatimg it over and over for the rest to join in
you have to do the same with german football clubs on your german channel! :)
I agree. 🙂
Yess, I also missed German soccer fans chanting...
That was wild, but, how wonderful to see your son. Blessings, Ryan, for your son, and your family. Peace
. 👼
"they fly so high, they reach they sky / and just like my dreams they fade away and die"
The hammers are from now on my favorite team from across the channel, no doubt.
I relate on a spiritual level.
Check out fan choreography BVB Dortmund Germany. The Yellow Wall is unique
At 1:40, this section of the stadium is only for ultras. That means they come to support the OM team by chanting. Not to just watch the game (the other 2 parts of the stadium are for those who wants to sit). The flags are big parts of its identity and it's a pride to wave it actually. And the echo you are hearing is the others ultras across them. I recommend you watch videos of "OM chant/ambiance" just to get you an idea
I think with singing it's a bit like the wisdom of crowds. That if you have enough people they cancel eachother out singing out of key or tempo. There's something very envigourating about singing with a large crowd. I like the melancholic more general songs best. Like 'forever blowing bubbles' in this video, but also Hibs 'Sunshine on Leith', very local song best. 'Bloed, zweet en tranen' is another one of Ajax Amsterdam. There's also some great footage of the Liverpool fans singing their Beatles song 'she loves you' in the 60's.
Your reaction is so amazingly funny.
There are rarely songs from the charts or even if, the text will be completely different. Every Football fan will learn these chants game by game. And the new songs, they usually print the lyrics of them in the club paper. Yes, almost every club has its own "newspaper" if you like. They are only for the people coming to the stadium and they have a lot of information about the club, the playday, the table, the players, the sponsors... and sometimes new lyrics :)
Being American you are close to seeing this atmosphere, as a European I would love to experience a South American atmosphere, Argentina has crazy fans
If you want to see crowd participation, please watch Queen at the Live Aid concert in 1995.
Absobloodylutely, it's a MUST 😀
8:20 A wild baby Ryan appears. It's very effective :D
Btw, if you liked the West Ham song "I'm forever blowing bubbles" and the whole mythos around West Ham United, English football fandom as a whole, and the dark sides of ultra fandom put together in a fictional movie based on real events, starring none other than the legend Frodo Baggins himself, Elijah Wood, I highly, highly recommend the movie "Green Street Elite". It's about an American college dropout who visits his sister who moved to England and married an ex-Ultra Hammers fan. That guy's brother leads one of the most prolific and feared underground, violent hooligan groups and slowly sucks the American, sheltered kid deep into the undebrelly of violence and escapism. It's absolutely bonkers, mate.
@1:24 l'OM stands for "Olympique de Marseilles" is their club name.
Ultras our way of life should be next!!!
agreed
Fun thing about San Lorenzo. The club's currently most famous support is Francis, Bishop of Rome and Vicar of Christ.
As a Belgian Standard Liège fan,we also sing Aux Armes at times
its only fun till you run into the crowd of the other team lol
I am in my 7th decade of following Millwall and have been to over 1,500 matches and visited 84 other grounds and avoided all trouble by a combination of luck, instinct and quick thinking..lol
@@Isleofskye hehe congrats mate and i wish that the good luck will stay that way i meant it more in the general way i personallöy only have been to a few3 mayor games and i do remember that we did had quiet a taff stand to defend our ground against holandish ,,,, or is it thetherlands? ... fans which lost a game against germany and werent really happy at all , at least that was a long time ago so noone used blades and it was a good exercise
They are at the stadium once or twice a week for years. Thats how all of them know the chants and songs. They really love their team. It is like this all over the football world. Take care now, your son looked like a future footballer.
Fan culture in Europe is insane, but German fans are the most insane out of all of them, even in the 2. league tens of thousands come and support their team you should really check that out
Dont forget the 3. League. And even some amateur teams have nice Fans.
@@pierreschlagenhaft7952 I have three words for you: "Illertissen spielt international!"
I truly don't think it's possible to compare the fans.
Flags are allowed they go a bit nuts in some countries when it comes to flags.
A lot of clubs have organized fan factions which is how they organize chants as well as flags and banners (like bvb fans organize huge images in the stadium by fans holding up colored signs) plus these clubs have been around for many generations so its just part of the culture for many cities
8:18 aaaaaaaaaw I love that moment 😍 so sweet. Maybe when he's an adult he will peek into the room while you're reaction as a cameo. A nod to the very first time he appeared in your videos.
Oooh San Lorenzo
Oooh San Lorenzo
Dicen que estamos todos de la cabeza
Pero a San Lorenzo no le interesa
Tomamos vino puro de damajuana
Y nos fumamos toda la marihuana
Oooh San Lorenzo..
(Repeat)
Thanks to these compilation videos I discovered San Lorenzo and I love it.
They are all about party in the stands.
It's also the now reigning popes team as he grew up as a San Lorenzo fan in Boedo, Buenos Aires, Argentina.
They have a tragic history where they had to sell their homeground in the seventies to the Argentinian dictatorship.
There are videos on TH-cam about it.
That's because you didn't understood the lyrics from PAO fans ( Panathinaikos - Greece), the only one that was not translated! I' m from Romania, I don,'t speak greek language but we copied this song that is called "Horto magiko" (Magic weed) and compare the love for the team with a drug addiction!
P.S. Our version is called "Ce drog ciudat" (What a weird drug), but we never did it as good as PAO fans did!
Minute 3:11 - For some big teams in big cities (like PSG in Paris like in the video or AS Roma in Rome and many others) even those that don't go to the stadium with regularity know more or less some of the chants... And that was the day of the match, so probably 75% of the people was going to the stadium by underground... You need only ONE person to start a chant that is well known that the whole crowd will follow
In Germany for example it’s common for fan groups to meet up hours before the game at some pubs in the city and travel together to the stadium, hundreds of people walking and chanting 😁
how do you not have chants in america?? that shit gets you so hyped its amazing
Listen to Hibernian fans singing sunshine on Leith. Best ever
I can attest to the hype on a football stadium. I'm not much of a sports fan, but when i get on a stadium, the atmosphere and the crowd is intoxicating and it get's you sucked into the craze. you should go to a football match in Europe to understand it
4:00
Those two clubs, Boca Juniors and River Plate from Argentina are arch rivals and hate each other.
My grandfather was supporter, my Dad is, my brother and I are too.. That's how we know what to sing and do, it runs in our veins.
you need to watch a liverpool crowd singing you`ll never walk alone
I am from Germany, my Football Club was establisht 1907 FCA Football Club Augsburg ❤💚🤍. Real Fans knew all the chants from their favourit Team. An we are singing on the street, in bus or Tram on the way to the Stadion and on the way Home. For a few Years we play in the Euro League against Liverpool in Liverpool and our Fans walked singing peacefull thru the streets to the the Stadium at Anfield Road. We stand to our Club in every League with our hearts and our love. RedGreenWhite ❤💚🩶 are our colors
Loved the guest appearance ha!
It's not L'OM, It stands from Olympic Marseille. Football club from Marseille France. And we always do this during the match. The ambiance is incredible.
Spent lots times with the ultras and the feeling of family and the hype of these chants it's quite lacking in your normal life it's akin to a tribal dancing and eating around the bonfires it's quite an addictive feeling
It is not only one song. There are albums of fan songs that are sang on each football game. Check CSKA Sofia.
What A Beautiful Son. You lucky,lucky Man....:)
I'm from Marseille and the second stadium is from my club Olympique de Marseille (best football club in the world of course). what you have seen is the chant called "aux armes" and it's where both curved grandstands chant back to eachother. it is somethine worth to be seen in person : goosebump fuel
If you want to know more about Ultra groups try watching the following:
- ''Ultra - Our way of life! (10.000 Subscribers Special)''
- ''THE BEST ULTRAS VIDEO EVER (Ultras World 1M Special)''
- ''Why Ultras Are So Important For Football''
- ''The Most Intense Atmosphere in Football - Partizan v Red Star | Derby Days''
I promise you will not regret any of it. I really want to see your reaction on all of the above.
Simple rule in german football, if you dont want Flaggs before you, buy a ticket for a seat an watch it sitting. 😅
Minute 6:16 - It's not exausting because the adrenaline keep you up... The exausting part comes later, when you get home and you pass out witho no voice for a couple of days
Your at a party and a song comes on everyone knows and everyone starts singing in harmony, its the exact same thing with football fans, they have club songs that are well know from over the decades. Its that simple.
Great Reaction Ryan,you are so much better than that Tyler lookalike Guy( I write the opposite in his comment section) lol
What a Beautiful Baby. The Baby looks very young. I wonder how old he or she is? 😍
That was MY team: MILLWALL in the first clip and we have only been in the Top Flight of English Football for 2 out of our 134 years. lol( We were AWAY from Home in another part of England when that was filmed). Ultras Greatest Chants 2,3 and 4 are more intense overall, my friend.😀
Love the comparison to ants!
The guest appearance made the video 🤣🤣🤣
You could watch the video comparing American and European football fans it is really fun but might be slightly depressing for you as an American 😂 Btw love you video and greetings from Germany
What you don't see on the footage from Marseille team is that people who are repeating every lyrics are on the other side of the stadium. It's really my favorites football chants, every marseillan and probably every french now this chants !
I been to games where 20 thousand fans out sang 35 thousand, I was part of the 20 thousand, match days can be electric where goose bumps stand on goosebumps, nowadays with Facebook they come up with song on fans page, pre Facebook people came up with songs before games.
We do the alternative Wave. In a Away game, the homeclub won't join the wave, so we count down, throw our hands up, and then make a imaginary wave going round, by pointing our fingers where the imaginary wave would be.
Hands up, then go with your finger from left to right round the stands, until your finger reaches the away corner, where we jump up, and continue.
You have to remember soccer as you call it in the states is a pretty new sport…in Europe teams have been around for over 100 years…in Europe there’s more passion because of this 🇬🇧✌🏻
American chats be like : " I believe that I will win"😂😂😂😂
Here in Europe the football is about love and passion. In USA its for fun and entertainment. Here we are ready to give everything for our favorite team.
And all this time I thought you were filming in from of a green screen 🤣
if you want the largest crowd of Ultras, watch the ‚gelbe Wand‘ (yellow wall) the largest in any Football/soccer Stadium with 25k ppl in the Borussia Dortmund Westfalenstadion..
The newer stadiums are constructed to optimize "audio"
They sing the musics every week for a life time.
West Ham chants are spot on as they never win a thing ! 😂😂😂
In Europe football is a religion, it is not just a sport.
Our temple is our stadium and our God is our center forward.
The chants of each club are learned by children from the cradle.
Haha du hast noch nie eine richtige ultras choreo gesehen. Unsere Fans wollen das Spiel sehen. Sie lieben ihren Fussballclub. Sie werden nicht bezahlt, wie in Amerika um die spiele zu sehen. Sie kennen die Lieder weil sie an JEDEM Spiel sind.
Thats love and passion.
You should watch ultras our way of life 10,000 special it blow your mind.
Much love from UK
Ultras in Europe are in fact known from early Medieval Era. Byzantine (Greek) fans of chariots races have been famous for their stadium clothes and choreography. Not to mention political actions. :)
That first MILLWALL chant was Away from home,in a different part of England and that is why those away fans were segregated from the Home fans hence some empty seats around them so as not to be too close:)
You have to watch the NFL game in Munich, Germany (it was last November I think) Many Americans were very surprised about the German fans, including the football players.
you should react to "Ultra - Our way of life! (10.000 Subscribers Special)" a video showing a describing/talking more about the supporter culture that does not exist in North America. Really interesting video. Think you will like it!
"Oh, they've got choreography?" 😂
You just discovered the very tip of the iceberg.
These are just some random clips and far from the best.
Trust me ryan this is exhausting and fun . You do not have aby choice when you leave 😁🤣
*any voice?
@@voyance4elle yes i write fast n and b are quite close to each other . 🤣
@@voyance4elle yes i write fast n and b are quite close to each other . 🤣
It's only really world football fans that are more chaotic than America or any other sport. Due to this they are known as football "hooligans". Have a watch of this films green street and the football factory. 👍🏽
That is quiet normal to us in Europe, we take soccer very serious. We don't need any music act at halftime, we sing ourselves 🤪
wft is soccer
Football not soccer please
We got no cheerleader,so the Publikum are the cheerleaders 😂🎉
Ryan, you just need to have many. many beers beforehand....
It is pretty amazing and interesting how often you American folks doing these reactions say "I wonder how this can be legal" or something similar since the US is so proud of having unlimited possibilities - especially talking bout big flags
The fans of Scottish club Hibernian singing sunshine on Leith is something you should hear
08:19
you should definitely watch "ultras - our way of life"
Their normally singing the club songs
Theirs a group called the Barry army that travel around the world to cricket matches singing like this and some may only be there a couple days and more come and take their place
🤣🤣🤣 your son was just chanting with them
West Ham’s one and only song is a fucking embarrassment.
I can smell beer through my screen.
Viel Spaß mit dem Kind und deiner Frau Grüße aus Düsseldorf
"We are the Red and the White" - The Sydney Swans! "Up there Cazaly"! "The Holy Grail"! 🤔 "Barmy Army" - Brits at the cricket! 😳 It's a very British thing, team songs and singalongs, the old Theatre and pub songs! Less riots hopefully!? 😊👍
Hehehe, don't forget the non sports related but epic Aussie question every band has to ask if there are Aussies in the crowd... "Am I every gonna see your face again?..." 😂😎😈
@@belindaweber7999 🤐👍😁
Take a bow Scousers. You invented all of this
It would be cool that you react rugby chants, they're crazy as well
Europeans don't go to a football match to relax! We go to a war like! To us it's not about the sport in general, it is about the teams! Sport, football especially it is an religion to us
You should look to some other countries other then uk. German, turks, etc. fans are wild, there even some better examples than these in the vid. The songs are specific from the clubs, not like normal music songs. The stadiums are different sizes but the biggest ones are in between 60k-100k in europe. Ultras are like more dangerous and wild fractions of normal football club fans.
he needs to see brazilian crowds
all we have here in America is the wave - The Mexican wave
Oh my sweet summer US child :-)
Did the tallest baby in the world just appear behind the door.
Europe has 746 million inhabitants, 700 million of whom are football fans
in europe you can change women but you never change the club you support
You say that all America has is the wave. In Europe, the wave usually means that the game is so boring that the crowd needs to entertain itself
It's not that the rest of the world is more chaotic when it comes to sports, it;s that they are more passionate. The Ultras are the die-hard fans - they have the flares and flags.
Its just of football culture most places ive seen and been apart of. As for the singing its not hard, someone called out and then you repeat. A lot are songs you've heard before or to the other tune of pop culture songs
Toda esa unión y energía, cuando se ha dirigido a pedir nuestros derechos, es la que ha ido consiguiendo los cambios que han llevado a nuestro modo de vida actual...esa magia que une a la gente que cree en ago....
