While I still love "We are the Champions" (brings back many high school memories) I would choose "We Can" by LeAnn Rimes.

We can.....do the impossible
We have the power in our hands.

Great song

OK, if we are going to have a "champions song" , then we might consider "Hit Me With Your Best Shot" by Pat Benatar.


Gee Dave- that one sums up our overall FIRST experience in many cases... I'm for it

WC :cool:


I just thought we were interested in building robots....

Personally I like “We are the Champions” and don’t find it demeaning but encouraging and inspiring. But if we had to get rid of it I would recommend:

Dream On – Aerosmith. Listen to the lyrics, it can fit with the tough hurdles overcome. It’s just such a good anthem.

The Second Coming - Juelz Santana. Now I’m not a big fan of rap, but this song is a good one. There is no profanity (always good) and with the exception of one part of the song (“We take what we want we born warriors”) The Second Coming embodies the ideals of FIRST and what the competitions are for.

There are also a lot of songs that could be played before/during elimination matches, but that’s not the point of the thread.
