Please no more Buttercup

[Socaliente]

Was at the game last night and the crowd was insane on every video and song that was played. Up until Build me up buttercup. I know this has been a topic before, but no one at the stadium seemed to care about the song being played. The audio video guys are doing amazing things this year but when that song was played it felt out dated and out of place. They badly need to change it to something that represents California or at least baseball. Ive always thought California Girls by the beach boys would fit well, or California Gurls by Katy Perry if they wanted to appeal to the younger crowd.

 

Ive wanted to write a letter suggesting the change but I have no clue who to send it to or how to go about it.

 

 

 

The Rally Monkey Harlem Shake/ Gangnam Style video was incredible.

You have to admit...that song was aprapos for last night....it couldn't fit better.

[shellback]

song makes me want to vomit.

why not replace it with money by pink floyd?

[Blarg]

Arte chose the song. Good luck on that letter.

[HaloCory22]

I now question Arte's ability to run this franchise. 

[Wallerrrr]

i hope they never change it, that song rules

Arte chose the song. Good luck on that letter.

Really? Does he know the lyrics?

[shellback]

how bout Disco Boy by Frank Zappa?

it would truly emcompass the dancing, carefree attitude of our team.

[REDemption]

How about some Buttermilk instead ?

 

[Glen]

How about just a few minutes of goats sounding like humans?

I don't understand the hatred for the song. While I personally don't care for it, I hardly let it ruin my experience at the game.

I think the song perfectly resonates with what it is like to be an Angels' fan.

With that said, I hate it.

Arte chose the song. Good luck on that letter.

O Rly? Did he tell you that while you two were flying to Bermuda?

[Brandon]

I wish they would get rid of it as well.

How anyone can say Buttercup rules baffles the mind.

[Brian Ilten]

Arte chose the song. Good luck on that letter.

 

 

I hadnt heard that.  Next time we get him to answer questions I would like to ask, "What the hell were you thinking?"  Ok... maybe just "Why"?

 

Its a horrid song.

[tomsred]

Everyone has their own conception of what a good song is, that is why it is "music."  That said I would prefer any music that is played after a "W."

[The God of Runs]

I'm surprised the CIA hasn't used this song to torture prisoners with.

[Chili83]

I was wondering if it was 80s night. I counted "Axel F", "Tainted Love", "Workin My Way Back to You" (it was sampled), a few others. Even some 90s with "Gettin' Jiggy With It".

 

A perfect song for the bottom of the 7th -- esp. if the bullpen keeps imploding in the top half -- would be Bruce Hornsby, "That's just the way it is...something's will never change..."

[Brandon]

Seriously, who do they have working the sound board when Gettin Jiggy Wit It is still being played?

[Angels Never Die]

i hope they never change it, that song rules

 

You are clearly not a mentally well person. I blame the song.

[Nowani]

I don't understand the hatred for the song. While I personally don't care for it, I hardly let it ruin my experience at the game.

 

Agree 100%. they could play Muskrat Love and I would be over it by the first pitch of the next inning.

[Brandon]

I prefer some Jodeci for the 7th inning stretch.
