Definitely time for a change. That U2 song has run its course. Turn the page.
Out with U2 and in with the new. Let the players choose the music.
After the last 10 days, how about 'Call me, maybe'.
Time for a change.

I haven't been to a game at the Bradley Center in a long time, have to catch all my in person games on the road. They are still using that? That started in 02-03 if not earlier.

Are you sure you want to go with that? I am not certain the players would pick something that would necessarily connect with the fans.
Dear Athletic Department
Get something uniquely Marquette -
Hire someone and have an intro that truly ignites the crowd. There's a musician there named Greg Koch and he is an amazing guitar guy who can write. I am sure there are others. We need something to call our own.
Start a new tradition.
This year's intro can be found here:

After leading the charge to get Streets back into the intro music after the Flatboy Slim debacle, I do not know what to think of you people.

Probably not recognizable enough for the general public, but I always run a little faster/feel a little better when it comes on during my workout.
Aarrrgh, eff it-- I obviously don't know how to embed the youtube vid, but I'm too busy to fix it-- just follow the link.
Love me some XX, but they don't exactly hype me up, imo
DMX always hyped me up. I think what we should do is hire him to lead the team out of the tunnel and then run around on the court screaming "what" and barking to an upbeat, thumping baseline. "We-are" "What?!? "Marquette" "What?!? "We-are" "What?!?" "Marquette" "What?!?" <loud cheers and applause>
Every game will also function as a mini DMX concert. I know we already spend a lot on basketball, but I doubt spending $12 more dollars per game to get DMX is going to break the bank.
A few years back I advocated "Uprising" by Muse as a good intro song for the player introductions. Maybe it's a bit stale now but I still think it would be awesome.
Yeah, after listening to it again I thought it might be too mellow for a basketball crowd. Still love it for running/spinning. It just makes you feel good.

I'm not a U2 fan, but I still get chills every time I hear Streets. It's MUBB to me.

I'm not against a change per se but it better be the right one....that Fatboy Slim crap was a disaster.
Honestly, I would go back to the 70s, making a come back with the current generation and there's definitely some hype songs that could generate chills.
Think Aerosmith's Dream On (worked so well in the movie Miracle). Maybe something from 1977.

Actually there are a ton of schools that use this song, so it's not just Milwaukee being outdated.
Streets is Marquette Basketball, but like I said it's not really unique to us anymore. Other schools are not only using the song, but they are using timeline videos with the Remember the Titans theme (maybe not that unique anyway) and our style of intro videos.

I would like a change. But I don't think my music preferences would click well with other fans
This topic has been brought up previously. Streets is a completely limp song that proclaims stale, anemic, and weak. There is no element of danger whatsoever. Mike Tyson used to enter the ring to noise. Metal and chains just clanking. NOISE. That is intimidating.
In contrast Marquette needs something to make itself feel good. Let me just pat myself on the back for Bono's humanitarian causes. Like, I mean, he does such good things for Africa! Yeah he's a rock star, but he is sooooo down to earth.
My brain cells can't die quickly enough to justify this nonsense. I'd sell my soul if I never had to listen to another U2 song in my life.
Michael Jordan came out to sirius. And it is awesome. Can you name any other basketball teams entrance other than MU, Bulls, and the current Heat? I can't. I hate U2, but I love Marquette. I can deal with it.

Couldnt even tell you what the Heat's is.
I know Gtown used to use Notorious BIG. Also dated, but at least more relevant. Really, it isn't important what other programs or teams use. The point is this, Marquette can do better and thus they should do better. I want the intro to be more dangerous. I want it to illicit a sense of unease. I don't want it to be friendly happy go lucky.

"Into The Pit" Halford

There are only two intro songs I can identify with a team for certain, and that's Streets for MU and the song the Bulls enter to. Iconic to me.

Yes! When and if we get a new Bradley Center, we'll have those cameras. That is very new technology, and was first used in Sochi for the Olympics during the opening and closing ceremonies. It is quite amazing what you can do with it. To be honest, I'd rather have watched the camera show than the game.

'Where the Streets Have No Name' is one of the most recognizable opening songs of an album of all time. That song and album is one of the greatest records ever recorded and is truly timeless. Regardless of personal music tastes, that's one of those records that should be universally recognized and celebrated for the impact and influence it left on music. If fans want the intro music changed that's fine, but let's not show a complete lack of understanding by bashing a historic album.
Went to the MU-Villanova game in Philly and they used Rick Ross "Hustlin". Loved it...thought MU should use it.

I haven't seen anyone bashing U2 at all. All I have seen is a few people supporting the continuation of "Where the Streets Have No Name" being played as the MU intro, more people supporting a change, and others offering new songs that they'd like to hear. It is a good record, but the song, itself, seems outdated as an MU intro. That comes as no disrespect to the song. Personally, it reminds me of Crean/Buzz era. It's time to move forward from that. With Wojo on board, it's the perfect time to start a new chapter and create some new memories.

They should go back to the original Streets version, not the terrible cheesey version they've used the last couple years. It's a great intro song when kept simple.

"Where the Streets Have No Name" has to be the dumbest intro song ever for a sporting event. First, the song came out in 1987. That's more than a full decade before freshmen entering Marquette next year were even born. To put that in perspective, let's say you were a freshman in 1996. That would be like asking you to get fired up for a game by playing a top song from 1968 like "Mrs. Robinson" by Simon & Garfunkel. Second, there isn't a single lyric in the song that relates to sports or competition of any kind. You might as well have picked it out of a hat. And finally, do we really want to send our team off to battle with a song that contains the lyrics "we're beaten and blown" and "I want to hide"???
Just plain dumb.

This was the song Tom Crean brought when he took over. Perhaps, there's a prophecy in the lyrics after this past season in Bloomington.
We could do a lot of great things, just gotta put a little scratch into it. Take the chains off and cue up the guys who did the Cavs intro floor video to come up with something. They'll make it work.

I have a new song that will join both the old and young.... but I shall not reveal it until I put the song with a video showing MU highlights + intros. Stay tuned !!!
Otherwise, I will continue to throw ideas out there to gauge how people feel. Nonetheless, I think we need something that's more powerful and edgy than U2. The song just feels ... not manly anymore.

The argument of "tradition" holds no water. Traditionally, women were not admitted to Marquette. Traditionally, slavery was legal (btw, slavery is still 30 million strong, legal or not). Traditionally electricity wasn't used for power, traditionally people migrated less than 100 miles from their place of birth during a lifetime. Tradition...
Look, I HATE U2, but I can tolerate "Streets." If you pick something, make it semi-obscure but awesome like "Sirius." Look to the world of professional wrestling, that has like 50 different entrances for the current crop of guys any given year. They have a lot of samey nu-metally garbage, but the good ones really work wonders. My favorite currently is used by the Wyatt Family, who come out to "Live in Fear."
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_hOt2im0lPU
Moody, creepy, and fantastic because of how different is is from everything else thats typically used. Now, I would personally like our basketball team to be creepy and terrifying, but I can understand almost no one else would be on board with it. but basically, you just have to take something and make it Marquette's own. They have arguably done that with "Streets," as much as any one can make a U2 song identifiable with something other than U2, and I think it should stay, because frankly it can get immensely worse, if I am to take almost all of the suggestions in this thread seriously.
Two very underappreciated songs:
1) Balrog's theme music
2) Castlevania IV's main theme. The one from SNES
EDIT: I originally made this comment in jest, but now that I'm humming it to myself, then loudly to everyone else on the bus that I'm on, I actually think Balrog's theme music woud be awesome. Seriously. Any other super street fighter 2 turbo gen'ers agree?

Not a bad song at all, but I think it doesn't provide enough energy in it to pump up the crowd. Nonetheless, I appreciate the input. I wish more people would post their ideas. I'm thinking of a movie soundtrack that seems very inspirational. That seems to be the route to go as instrumental music is music that most can deal with.

I'm no attorney, so I could be way off on this one. However, I think it depends on how MU uses the music. Will it only play at the Bradley Center before games? In that case I think MU would not owe any money. If the music is used on youtube videos and social media, I believe it depends on the length the music is used. If a song is played in its entirety then MU will have to shell out some dollars.
Not bad, Deane'sGlasses. I don't even remember metroid for SNES. Liven it up to 2014 standards and it could work

I'm fascinated that ODB has gotten 3 votes.... totally surprising to me.

Ram Jam - Black Betty
now you're talking.
You know who else likes Black Betty (besides ZFB)? Strippers. Strippers love dancing to Black Betty. Trust me, I'm a talent scout.

If we went to the Bradley Center for a stripper show, I'd be more than happy to have this song played.

It is physically impossible to not start tapping your feet or banging your fist on something when Black Betty comes on. It's science.
Also one of the best music videos ever. It looks like it was filmed in my Grandma's back yard. Check this.

Nah, no mullet, but I could see how you might make that connection. That post is certainly mullet material.
Keep in mind I'm also the guy that referenced an obscure Wu-Tang song in this same thread. I'm complex man.

Mullet doesn't necessarily mean a bad thing. If you had one, I would give you ultimate props.
C.R.E.A.M.
Although, now that I think about it...... Triumph would be a great song to come out to. Complexity is a virtue of mine, especially when I go classical on yo azzes.

Triumph may be the best rap song of all time.

Liquid Swords - Best Album to Come from the Wu Tang tree, ever.
I was watching the Blackhawks/Wild game last night and noticed that the United Center played the intro to "Where The Streets Have No Name" right before the shootout started. Are we not as out of date as we thought, or are the Blackhawks just as out of date as we are? (Note: they do use "Stranglehold" as their opening music, which I have to admit I love.)

Here is a list of tracks fans are "most likely to hear" at a Hawks game. No mention of U2 on the list. Lots of variety, which I like.
Traditionally, the Hawks played "Wipeout" by the Surfaris if they went up by three goals. They no longer do that.
The Hawks List could really benefit from some punk.

Dear Athletic Department
Get something uniquely Marquette -
Hire someone and have an intro that truly ignites the crowd. There's a musician there named Greg Koch and he is an amazing guitar guy who can write. I am sure there are others. We need something to call our own.
Start a new tradition.
Yours Truly,
Greg Koch

Not bad, Deane'sGlasses. I don't even remember metroid for SNES. Liven it up to 2014 standards and it could work
Whaaaa? Super Metroid was the definitive metroid.
Oddly enough, there is an updated version that sounds pretty cool, although I don't think it would be right for entrance music.

Always loved this one, but it's always over way too quickly. We'd need to do some quick intros.

Think about Opening Day line-ups
Doubt they change streets. The thing they do change each year is the music directly after the player intros. Cant remember this years or last years specifically but I know for Jae's and DJO's senior year it was Ni***s in Paris. Which because of that is now one of my favorite songs.

I attended a game this January and Streets was not played during the intro. I was thrilled. The song that replaced it was not memorable and thus an improvement. MU must kill off Streets forever. Don't half ass this, Marquette. I already have my hopes up that I never have to associate MUBB w/ terrible music again.

Whoa, pump the brakes buddy. I agree that Streets should be replaced, but it's not "terrible music".
We're talking about a U2 classic here, not Snow's informer or Gerardo's Rico Suave.
This may be outside the box (especially for a first post), but I think Ironside by Quincy Jones (aka the song with the siren from Kill Bill) would be unique to Marquette, get the crowd fired up, have a nice retro feel. You'd have to chop out some of the parts (particularly the flute solo), but considering how chopped up Streets is on the intro, I don't that's an issue.

I love the Blackhawks intro -- especially with "Straglehold" preceded by the opening riff of Marilyn Manson's "The Beautiful People" when they take the ice.
Speaking of which, I'd redo the legends video before messing with Streets. That "Remember the Titans" music is feeling a little tired and sappy. If you haven't seen it, the Blackhawks "Orchard" video makes good use of old radio calls and a more obscure but fitting soundtrack song ("The Might of Rome" from "Gladiator").

Wu Tang - Bring Da Ruckus
Our Wu Tang style will destroy the Big East.
Lil Jon- "Throw It Up"
Somewhat concerned that there have been minimal suggestions (any?) for music that was released post 2010. Treading in the right direction. Dig.
Another good one is "Can't Stop" by the Chilli Peppers
Well if Metroid and other SNES tracks are out of the question, then I recommend the following
http://www.youtube.com/v/ElFDlShmOng?hl=en_US&version=3
skip Archie's verse and loop the hook. Pretty much anything from that 2001-2003 ATL crunk era would get the BMO center jumpin (note in the beginning the shout out to PTM's signature)
Or
http://www.youtube.com/v/2rfKYm_3-M0?version=3&hl=en_US
This is the Vikings intro song, so Packer-backers may not be too fond of that, but I tell ya what. I went to the Vikes-Cowboys playoff game a few years back (I love Favre) and when this song came on, I was so hype that I wanted run out on to the field and hit somebody.
We are the champions.
Crunk Music - To be honest, I think the administration wants to stay as far away from this type of music as possible. Wojo has a clean image and crunk doesn't jive with it at all. To me it isn't inspirational nor does it get everyone hyped to run out on to the court and throw down a 360 dunk.
Led Zeppelin - An all time classic, but MU needs to come up with something fresh. Something that isn't 70's or 80's for sure unless it's some sort of soundtrack to a movie that is powerful, but not used.
How about Cypress Hill ?
This song hits hard and basically says to the opposing team that you're not going home without several bruises, at least.
http://www.youtube.com/v/Vf_AGlMxxgM?version=3&hl=en_US
Here's something that's more of a "get the WHOLE crowd hyped" intro. I think it caters to all ages and will definitely appeal to female segment of the crowd.
It gradually builds for the first minute then hits. It could be edited with "Wojo's Warriors" at the point where it says: Barbara Streisand.

It's definitely a step in the right direction. There are parts of the song I like, unfortunately, it's not made to sound like an anthem with the build up in the beginning. If I was more musically inclined, I'd tweak the song and I think we would be close! But yes, I'm all for the electronic route.
If anyone has anymore suggestions, please feel free to add.
In 2010 I would have liked some Sleigh Bells. Treats was an excellent record, but I think Tell Em would work well.
