As with much music, I think its what age group you come from. If you were not around in the era the group was starting out and performing, then quite often you may not like their music. Many young people like/ love RAP music, dont like it myself, but does not mean that my tastes are better then that of today youngsters who like their own era's music ! As to the music in question, ''Rocking All Over The World'' well of its time, a bit repetitive but its got a catchy ''Hook'' so its ok by me.

Both are a bit... loud, aren't they?

Could do with some Albatross by Fleetwood Mac to help us Westsiders get back to sleep.

I love it, also the opening number for Live Aid in 1985. London Calling is a great song by a great band.

Rocking All Over The World is a lively and catchy song and good for entertainment at football matches.

The Status Quo version of Rocking All Over The World is actually a cover version, the song was written by John Fogerty of Creedence Clearwater Revival fame and recorded by him in 1975.

It's part of the clubs fabric, something not to be messed with or changed.

The more I hear it the better I like it.....

I don’t like Status Quo but I enjoy hearing this song and hope to hear it regularly after home games next season.

As is Tijuana Taxi !!
This old video looks so dated now, still good fun though

Agreed Sid, if they ever took Tijuana away, I think I would stay away too.

Just watch the number of people singing along to it every time we win, wont be many apart from you not enjoying it.

Back in the early 90’s they tried to stop playing Taxi as the team ran out. I remember them playing ‘Simply the Best’ by Tina Turner. Everyone booed. Can’t remember the other songs they tried out but the experiment only lasted a few matches.

Most people have headed for the exits by the 85th minute

It's really not though, is it? It's only a relatively recent addition. I'm with L7, it's a sh*t song and an embarassment, much the same way when Hearn tried to get Simply the Best as our walk out music.

Taxi is a totally different matter, going back years, even generations.

Good old Bazza with his razzamatazz ideas. Simply the Best by Tina and red carpet 'celebrity' walkouts by random page 3 stunnas and Eric Monster Hall and the like. Proper cringe.

Try going to Anfield and telling them to stop playing "You'll never Walk alone" before the match, you wouldn't make it to the exit

I didn’t realise Rocking all over the World was played before matches
I will try my hardest to get there by 15.01 in the future
