<p>you're a die hard duke fan who has always had their heart set on Notre Dame?</p>
<p>and just because you hate unc, automatically means it has a bad fight song?</p>
<p>i like unc's fight song (I better!), but for me notre dame's easily takes the cake</p>
<p>a.) naturally the devastation comes from the fact that we lose so, so infrequently. and even more infrequently to teams that are mediocre at best.
b.) i recognize some of the people in that video (weird) & i was at that game.

<p>USC
Notre Dame
UMich</p>
<p>Although Clemson's is good....I'm going with Georgia Tech's fight song.</p>
<p>USC, without a doubt.</p>
<p>im really sorry to disappoint you guys, but Hail to the Victors (Michigan) is widely recognized as the greatest fight song ever penned. Go blue.</p>
<p>Victors isn't bad, but I like my high school's version better than UMich's (with obvious bias). I also probably don't have the best recording of it; I bet it comes across with a lot more energy live.</p>
<p>USC's Tribute to Troy is a great song, but they really overplay it. If they saved it for critical situations in the game, it would be one of the best. Fight On, however, is horrible. It has four measures of actual musical content, all of which have the same rhythm, and they stretch that out into an incredibly boring minute-long song. I vote for Fight On for the worst fight song.</p>
<p>I'm also a fan of Go U Northwestern, Across the Field (Ohio State), On Wisconsin, and Fight for California (Berkeley).</p>
<p>When you get down to it, though, all fight songs are pretty much the same: lame lyrics with an interchangeable melody. Really--try interchanging the melodies of your two favorite songs sometime, and see how smooth it sounds. My favorite example is the first six bars of Notre Dame Victory March, followed by measures 7-13 of Fight for California, then measures 14-16 of Anchors Aweigh. You have to fudge on the time signature a bit (Notre Dame is in 4/4, Fight for Cal is in 6/8), but aside from that, if you didn't know the songs beforehand, you'd never notice that they were three different songs.</p>
<p>(Naturally, I'm proud to go to a school that has defied all normal fight-song-writing conventions by choosing All Right Now as ours. Others that I admire for breaking the mold, or at least bending it, are Tiger Rag, Rocky Top, and to an extent Victors.)</p>
<p>Yes, Notre Dame's is the best fight song out there. Also, props to whoever mentioned UCLA earlier, I always play my NCAA football dynasties as the Bruins and their song is sweet.</p>
<p>MSU's fight song is awesome. I'm a little biased, but I've never been a fan of UofM's fight song. Notre Dame's is okay, my high school used their song.</p>
<p>On the banks of the Red Cedar,
There's a school that's known to all;
Its specialty is farming,
And those farmers play football;
Aggie teams are never beaten,
All through the game they'll fight;
Fight for the only colors:
Green and White.</p>
<p>Smash right through that line of blue,
Watch the points keep growing.
Aggie teams are bound to win,
They're fighting with a vim!
Rah! Rah! Rah!
Michigan is weakening,
We're going to win this game.
Fight! Fight! Rah! Team, Fight!
Victory for M.A.C.!</p>
