I work at the Air Canada Centre and we had our annual town hall meeting in Early Sept and he sang this song and he got all of us to sing the "OH OH OH" and "GO LEAFS GO" chant in the background. He told us this would be in the final version. I have been looking for it ever since, thanks for posting this!
Please hockey Gods...Bless them with a Stanley cup while my parents are able to enjoy and rest well. They are almost 80 and their patience is amazing. They were new Canadians with 5 little girls the last time the Cup was won by TML. They raised us all to love being fans! If they win the Cup , I will start behaving!
i love the leafs, and it really hurts me when people make fun of my team at school, evertime i hear this song, i feel like crying, and ps mgoffer, this game is our game.
Prices in Ottawa don't even come close to the prices in Toronto. Average ticket prices in Toronto are $30 above the next highest in the league (Montreal). After that I believe it's New York, Vancouver, Boston, Pittsburgh, and then I think Ottawa.
My point was not on the comparison of tix from across the league. When i made the comment i checkd the prices of the Tickets for the sens vs the teams that were to be played. Every team there that the sens played were something like 20-30 dollars less than the tickets for games vs the leafs for the same cheap seats. i don't recall the higher end ticket prices. I know that as a leaf fan i am being juiced at the booth for ticket prices. but that's not the issue.
this is canadas team! did yu watch the leafs oilers game, they were chanting go leafs go in edmonton nd they havent been to the playoffs in 4 years!!! Its not to diss anyone, its just Go Leafs Go.
If you listen to Bob McCown's interview with Alan Frew (who wrote the song) the song has nothing to do with the Leafs, that is until Leafs execs highjacked it and inserted the "go Leafs go" chant and a couple other parts, so don't hate on the writer, just on the Leafs brass.
totally agree that their record so far is brutal.unlike habs fans leaf fans are not delusional and actually know and admit when the team is doing bad..but in all honesty the leafs are the most followed hockey team in the world. Everybody wants to know whats going on in leaf land.
you copy the address of this page and go to zamzar click url and choose a format U want I chosen mp3 and put your email address then click confirm (convert) wait till converted qnd they will send u an email for it to be downloaded
@jman911ca Sinatra didn't write new york new york about the yankees, but it is still THEIR song. it is played and chanted after every game. with the permission of the writer (a leaf fan himself) this is OUR song. great teams just GET these privileges. i know you're envious that we get all these cool fun things but thats just the way it is when you're the greatest franchise in the nhl
if that's the case then why are there more leafs jerseys in the opposition's barns than there are the oppositions jersey's in our barn? Ottawa tried to make it hard for Leaf fans to watch a game at their barn and it failed.
@911Assault well some of that i agree with like Komisarek is probably the worst on the team right now but Kessel is producing and if this is his bad year then i cant wait till his good ones, hes basically a draft pick just couple years more experienced, and did you really think the drafts were gonna be as good as him? And yes they have no money to spend at the moment but they should be getting rid of Giguere near the end of the season so there is about 6 million to spend for another top scorer.
@wwechikka are you implying anyone who doesnt support the leafs is essentially french? I wouldn't want to be grouped in with the french they have 1 word for victory and 12 words for surrender, hahahaha. Just a minor correction, not sure how old you are, but BACK IN THE DAY, Toronto and Montreal, were canada's ONLY teams, thats why canada's team is and always will be blue and white, no matter what the haters (minority) think.
Here, using simple logic, I will explain how the Leafs are Canada's team. Without a doubt, the choice would be between the Leafs and the Habs, because they are the oldest. Now in order for a team to be Canada's team, it should be representing the majority of Canada. For years, the Habs have been known as the Frenchman's team, while the Leafs are the Englishman's team. Since there are far greater English-speakers in Canada than French-speakers, the Leafs are therefore Canada's team. QED
yeeaaah and Burke signed a six year contract so all of you idiots who say that they will always suck, just you wait, he is one of the smartest GM's in the business and he knew it would take more than a few years to totally rebuild... GO LEAFS GO!!!!
@TwintigNege They have won 11 cups in their history. I saw them win the last one in '67. They need ownership that cares about winning, not just making money from loyal fans who show up every game and fill the building, win or lose. Toronto is the richest franchise in the NHL.
@hyperscott228 How is exactly is Toronto an american city? Last I checked, its in Ontario, which, I believe, is a Canadian province. And whoever thinks we aren't Canadian mentally hasn't been hear enough to get a full understanding of the place. Toronto has as much Canadian identity as any other Canadian city you can name.What's the Leafs' logo? Is it an American flag? No? Oh, right. It's a Maple Leaf, the symbol of all things Canadian. I would call you an epic fail.
the reason why the Leafs are not doing great is because all their players with the exception of a very tiny number of players, are American. 2007 Ducks win the cup, that year 80% of the team was Canadian, 2008 Red Wings, that season, mostly Canadians in the line-up. 2009, Penguins win the Cup, Sydney Crosby is the Captain of the team along with 2 other Canadians in the line-up.
Livin in miami Florida and still LOVIN THE LEAFS
simply inspiring.
I'm so jealous! Every Canadian should be proud and happy to be part of that great country.
This song brings a tear to my eye. I love our pride! GO LEAFS GO!

Alan Frew of Glass Tiger, who wrote this, is a Leafs fan. This was his homage to our team.
Sends chills down your spine. =) Great song, GO LEAFS GO!!
Yes, for sure. As soon as they play it durring one of the Games on LeafsTV, SportsNET or TSN I will have it here.
That is AWESOME!!!! That should be the Leafs' song this year!!
Kiss My Maple Leaf, has a nice ring!
We are the ambassador of hockey, I have met alot of Europeans and people from other continents who follow the Leafs
Game 7 in the first round vs Bruins Saturday night. I am a Penguins fan but anything can happen. ESPN plus and ABC. Go Toronto!
a song written by a fan for the team he loves. in his adopted country, Can't ask for more than that.
I love this song and I love the Leafs.
Way to go Uncle Alan!! Can't wait to hear the song your writing for the Olympics!!
Thanks for the upload. I was looking for this everywhere... I hope you can find the full version played at the ACC before each game.
This is the longest version I have seen so far. I will upload the full version as soon as I see it.

I don't think I've ever heard GO HABS GO in any arena outside montreal. But you can hear GO LEAFS GO in ANY arena in the league.
Getting it this year !!
one of the original 6!!!
GO LEAFS GO !!!! from Orangeville Canada
this is a great song. It's nice, i like it.
i love the leafs, and it really hurts me when people make fun of my team at school, evertime i hear this song, i feel like crying, and ps mgoffer, this game is our game.
its Matt Stajan and Luke Schenn. They were just wearing either Gilmour's or Clark's Jersey.
Prices in Ottawa don't even come close to the prices in Toronto. Average ticket prices in Toronto are $30 above the next highest in the league (Montreal). After that I believe it's New York, Vancouver, Boston, Pittsburgh, and then I think Ottawa.
why did they take out this song from the intro? i LOVED it, and thought it really amped up the crowd, and gave me a sense of pride about my leafs
They realize that the song is full of shit
Not only that .. but this POLL everyone speaks off was commissioned by the Habs in part for their 100 Year celebration.
My point was not on the comparison of tix from across the league. When i made the comment i checkd the prices of the Tickets for the sens vs the teams that were to be played.

Great song. Great team. Go Leafs Go!!
this is canadas team! did yu watch the leafs oilers game, they were chanting go leafs go in edmonton nd they havent been to the playoffs in 4 years!!! Its not to diss anyone, its just Go Leafs Go.
Leafs Forever!!!!! IDC if they didn't make it to the playoffs. Leafs always the best!
go leafs go it was not a good season this year but hope in next year witch is 2015

@Ibran8787 yes they will ever win again since 1967. this always question me too.

they play it before every leaf game..and they play it on the jumbotron at home games as well :)
when i was in cuba i met a few cubans that cheered the leafs on and one of them had a leafs hat on
will they ever win again since 1966-1967 stanley cup. this always questions me. could someone reply and give me an answer.
go leafs gooooooooooooo!!!!!!!
does anyone know where you can download this song? i tried downloading it on frostwire but there was nothing in the search results haha
if that's the case then why are there more leafs jerseys in the opposition's barns than there are the oppositions jersey's in our barn? Ottawa tried to make it hard for Leaf fans to watch a game at their barn and it failed.
@OhNoiTzBryan THANK U GERMANY THANX FROM CANADA
@ripBenoitFamily the other five dont know what hockey is..

@SonnyA89 you a habs fan sunny boy

As a habs fan, that's a pretty decent song. Very smooth song I almost feel a little bit pumped but I CAN'T it's not my team ;).
Go Leafs go!

What ever happened to this song :( why would sportsnet remove it
I'm a huge Leaf fan who will always be loyal, no matter how bad the season (or the decade) is going for them.... but this song blows.....
Best song ever go leafs go
@ArabicRoyalty hahaha i dont know what team your talking about but im guessing its montreal.
goosebumps
@tucker21jpt its because people love to hate the Leafs, But me personally i love to love them!!! :)
@Unbannable hahahahahaha, made my day with that comment.
@911Assault well some of that i agree with like Komisarek is probably the worst on the team right now but Kessel is producing and if this is his bad year then i cant wait till his good ones, hes basically a draft pick just couple years more experienced, and did you really think the drafts were gonna be as good as him?

WTF it's cut off after the second verse.
@Guitardude971 The only team that can call itself "Canada's Team" is our National Team.
lol, cant really say that after the last week of games since the trade!
@wwechikka are you implying anyone who doesnt support the leafs is essentially french?

Is the Leafs management cutting a video of past glory to keep the fans minds off the present shame?
@hanmerboys talk to me when you make the playoffs go habs go go habs go this is gunna be our year
@montoya54321 u mean 2012--13
BLUE AND WHITE FOREVER GO LEAFS GO
GO LEAFS GO
Great Song
How can the Leafs be "Canada's Team" when they have both the G.M. and the Coach from the U.S. National Team?
1 thing im french and I chear for the leafs else then that this makes sens.
@SaggySanders2 Price isnt from Toronto :)
yes id talk in a step further and say north amaerica's team , any where they play you always see more blue and white in the stands then anything

Great Song! The Leafs are Canada's team Mattastic, the west coasters are just jealous of Toronto because it is the center of Canada.
Reimer Schenn and Kadri will hopefully lead this team into the future and be the veterins of the team in 10 years.
55 habs where hear!!!!!
GO LEAFS GO BEST CITY TORONTO

no canadian team is canada's team. Montreal/Toronto/Vancouver are mostly european and american.
GO LEAFS GO GO LEAFS GO

@stone1705 at least we make it to the playoffs
Fucking hilarious. The Laughs make their theme song pretty much epitomize why the rest of the country hates them. Just fucking golden
893160007 I know right.
