Aussie here, sat with or very close to the barmy army in this series and the most recent one and they are by far the most fun supporters going around. Very welcoming and were happy to cop and give back any sledging in good humour. They very nearly had me switching sides when the Australian army (opposite side of the stadium) reached a new low and sung 'Hey micky you're so fine' only to be drowned out by the Jimmy Anderson song!
I love how the camera man joins in.. too many people spectate & worry about getting footage. But the significant thing going to support your team let alone across the world (away). So respect to u & all the lads & ladies that were full voice.
A lot of Australian fans are fickle and only like it when we're winning. I remember being there on Boxing Day 2010, when we were skittled for less than 100, then Cook and Strauss put on over 150 by stumps. I stayed til the end, coz that's what you've gotta do, and support your team. Most of the Aussie fans had left by then.
To think so many of these fans will have come on all the ashes tours every four year all the way to Australia These fans deserved it, some had been on all the tours for three decades and this was their first away ashes win
Not easy to do, Australia and England are so strong on their home deck. So when one of them beats the other away from home, it's a big deal. Australia nearly did it in 19, still "Took the Urn home" but it wasn't as good as a win.
Although I'm a great sportsfan I'm not really that into cricket; being a Dutchman who's unfamiliar with the sport and all... But this is absolutely fenomenal. I looked up the history behind the song and it just gives me the chills. It's also nice to hear a little Joy Division at about 1:35. Great job guys.
Love this song! Cricket is more than just a sport. Songs, roar, amazing stories on and off the field. As the famous Bill Lawry once said - “Its all happening”. 🤩 love and respect to the Barmy Army 🙏
I'm going to the M.C.G. this Boxing day test on the 1st day. It'll be my 3rd Boxing Day test, but 1st Ashes test. Can't wait. I'd love to go to Lords one day to witness an Ashes test.
We may not be good at anything else , i.e. Brexit deals or Politics, but we know how to put words to a song. Either at a Football ground or a Cricket ground . Bring the Ashes Home , " England expects every man to do his duty " .
Well at least the Barmy Army do their duty, not so sure about their players. Already 2-0 and not even looking close so far in this series. Plus Aus retained in England in 19, only barely holding out for a useless drawn series since Aus already had the urn.
I'm a Jock but I think the Barmy Army are brilliant. They make the atmosphere on tour and it would be great to experience the occasion especially on an Ashes tour.
personally i think england v australia is one of the best sporting competitions in the world. its entertaining, fun & friendly. we have a good rivalry, its fierce but it would never come to violence. lots of history and just generally great for the spectators regardless of who wins! i love it. its way better than the shitty money driven franchise of football. hope it continues, but i do feel than australian sport media is waaay more interested in winning than the sport itself...
I love the way the Barmy Army supports our cricketers, even in our most recent Ashes defeat. Great song - thanks for the share, and I hope to join the ranks at some point in one of the overseas tours.

I am a Pom, living in Oz. Sadly I sometimes feel that Aussies don't actually like sport! They like winning. It was obvious to me at the MCG and SCG when in the dying hours they had all left. The Barmy Army and indeed all England cricket fans turn up and stay put and have been doing it for years when we rarely won... I suppose we will have to enjoy it whilst it lasts, but I will be there, watching the team, win or lose all the same...
First time I've watched this scene Warne passed 😓 it is actually insane how easy it was to warm up to him once we could stop being terrified of him on the pitch.
Aussies win stadiums are full they lose they are empty lol worst supporters in the world . England win or lose stadiums are always full true supporters
Came over from ol blighty, the barmy army & me Around brisbane town we did roam (we did roam) 6 quid for a pint, a grand for the fliiiiight With strauss our captain, we'll take the urm home classic
As i remember nor could australia (1-1 in australia) Oh, how'd you enjoy the India v aus series? I thought it was hilarious considering England managed to beat india in india 3 months ago.
@TheElmerpaul Lol. Too true mate. South Africa is the one place where I need to go to watch England. Newlands Cricket Ground, grab a beer and chill the fuck out.
Are there any other fans in the world who could come up with a song like this??! pure genius!!

I wish us Aussies had support like this. Respect.
Meh, they've got the chants, we've got the records :) Let them sing.
@@ryanfox7166 lol
@@ryanfox7166 the comment literally says nothing about Cricketing ability of either country just saying the English support is insane

Don't watch cricket. But this is one of the best chants I've heard.
Missing out.
Yeah lad we love it.
By the way you should watch cricket 🏏

Gives me goosebumps such amazing support!! :)

That Ricky crying face did it for me
That blonde lady at 1:14 was in the crowd during the Sprinkler Dance at the MCG, must be nice to have money like that
Almost forgot to watch this today
thumbs up from the queen at the end nice!!
Lol! The Queens face in the end!
Anyone uploading songs from the current series.. I'd love to see the barmy army!
Absolutely immense supporters. Your welcome back to SA anytime !!! You deserve some success for a while after years of supporting that drivel.
Amazing
