"This is the Valley" intro video


Hey guys,
Every time the announcer says "This is the Valley," that video plays—we've all seen it. But since the start of this season, the music changed to a classical piece. I'm trying to remember what the old music used to be. Does anyone remember?

    I didn’t even consider that there’s fans that consider the non-classical backing track as the original version.
  • The original was O’Verona from the Romeo and Juliet movie soundtrack.

    There was a goals compilation a while back that was set to “Turn Tail” by The Young Knives. That was good.

    Don’t know who made it, but it’s a nice watch.

    I was under the impression the club made that one, despite the references to ‘this ship’s sinking’.

    Classic (they should have this playable in the Museum)

    This is basically when they started introducing new footage. I remember it was the same footage for a good amount of time. 

    After Powell did the tunnel jump (as a manager) they put that at the end, and then updated it for every manager afterwards (I only remember Bowyer, Jackson and Jones though).

    I always wondered why they never updated the very last image where it showed the 06-07 team, not exactly the most inspiring of sides

    It's on the museum Youtube along with over 3k other CAFC videos and can be viewed in our meeting room.

    There were those odd occasions when the video would end just as the tunnel was brought forward and @BDL would announce the teams onto the pitch. Absolute perfect timing.

    I hate it when the video gets everyone pumped up, then it ends and we've got another 5 minutes of generic music and the atmosphere goes flat.
    I've been saying this for years: the teams should be emerging from the tunnel as the This Is The Valley video finishes.

    Normally it's a bit of an anti-climax showing the video on the screen then waiting another three or four minutes for the players to come out.

    The song that was played in the video last season was Good Times by Ella Eyre
