|  #1 Posted on 12.9.08 1358.29 | Instant Rating: 8.17 | ...and I need it now.
I have to have a song like "Put me in coach, I'm ready to play" to use as part of a presentation for a YMCA fundraiser. There will be pictures of children playing over this.
This song was used last year, so we can't use it.
Themes are: Sportsmanship, children, fun, happy, etc.
The Song YMCA is out.
Due: immediately.
Thanks!

| #2 Posted on 12.9.08 1451.34 | Instant Rating: 7.11 | Bishop Allen's "Click Click Click Click" sounds like it could be an ad for Kodak - but, aside from fun and happy, it doesn't really meet your other standards.
Here's the song...

That's the only song that really stood out for me - and my life is so un-child oriented that I don't know what else would work. I have some world music that also might do, but that's about all I can think of...

Queen: "You're My Best Friend", maybe mixed with "We are the Champions" or "We Will Rock You" as canonical sports anthems.

I swear to ye gods there's been at least one commercial out here with that song in it for the last decade. I loves me some GBS, but enough is enough.
(I'm guessing it hasn't been quite so overexposed in Oregon, so Guru, fill yer boots, great track, etc.)

So, you're saying you ignored all this advice and went out on your own? Good for you, Aaron!
