Songs that remind you of certain matches

in General Charlton
... Or match day moments. Apologies if similar has been brought up before, don't really get on with the search function.

Hey Jude has just been on the radio which reminds me of Leicester away, and just adding in Kermorgant wherever possible. That may not stick long term though. Otherwise...

Things Can Only Get Better - Old Trafford '94, am sure the same for a lot.
Let it Be - Relegation against Tottenham.
Just Can't Get Enough - Hartlepool last season, bouncing around the Lib. Had great renditions of a few other songs too.

Whatever the song's called that we used to sing 'cheer up Peter Reid' to..?

    Good thread,I often remembered songs and associated them with Charlton games.A couple of randoms.

    Whats Up? by Four Non Blondes reminds me of the first couple of years back at the Valley for some reason.

    Gimme Hope Joanna by Eddie Grant takes me back to Selhurst and the season that Garth Crooks came back from injury to save us.

    Oh and Amarillo and Glad All Over remind me of a certain game.I wonder which one?

    Everton away about 2004. We won 1-0, Holland scored a belter.

    They played the video on the big screen, first time I had heard the song and always reminds me of that game.

    The two that stick in my mind have already been said, "things can only get better" at Old Trafford and "walking on Sunshire" at Wembly.
