    QPR related/Location mentions in songs

    Ofcourse we have our Pete Doherty - who mentions us a lot and has hoops related stuff in his videos, which is great. I hope he can really turn his life around to propel our club back into the modern day, in terms of pop/indie culture.

    Then other tunes like Baker Street, Warwick Avenue - Paloma Faith and I fell in love with a female plumber from Harlesden NW10.



    Then I heard this gem, where at 1:22 it sounds like a Bush market man selling scarves for £5,then a nice mention of The Uxbridge Road :0)



    Anyone know any other QPR related tunes or bands that support QPR?

      Mick got a lovely "Singing the Blues line in the fade out for The Clash's London Calling. Shame we never get to the end of the song when the club play it on match days.

      Glen Matlock ?
      Robert Smith ?
      Bill Bailey ?

        Pogues: White City
        I must away now, I can no longer tarry
        This morning's tempest I have to cross
        I must be guided without a stumble
        Into the arms I love the most

                          Do you mean when Joe Strummer sings 'I never felt so much a-like a-like...' in the fade out? You know in all the times of listening to that, since it was first released, I never put two and two together on that. Good (London) call!

                            I should probably write something insightful here

                              Sadly Strummer was a sc*mmer. Chels**t fan.
