BYU fight song will make major changes this year

But not to the words or melody, so actually not that major.

Is it the harmony?

AxelDC

No one. The band plays it and that's all that will change.

My guess is most fans won't even notice any change.

Yup, this^^^^^^!

Sounds like the changes could be both major and minor.

Hopefully the changes are mostly minor. Don't want any treble with the alumni.

changing the song is the Bass for many jokes.... Though BYU doesn't want any

Let's hope the changes augment the song more than they diminish it.

Are they going to update the stadium recording as well?

SpiffCoug

It would be easier to sing if they dropped it down in pitch.

refunder

They need to get rid of the "rah rah rah rah ra"crap.

7/30/14 12:09pm

what, are you a ginger or something? No soul?

Bob Vance

7/31/14 8:36pm

scrap the whole thing and start from scratch

Sale

7/30/14 12:39pm

It's such a major change

Flyski

7/30/14 1:13pm

I hope they don't change the "rah rah rah rah rah" part

capo
