    You'll Never Walk Alone has been sung before every home game since the 1960's. It's become very much the anthem of the city of Liverpool, a city and people, who have suffered many economic hardships and had to weather many storms. In this video it was sung before a pre-season friendly at Melbourne Cricket Ground, Australia. You should hear it on a European night at Anfield.

    You'll never walk alone is a song from the 1945 Rogers and Hammerstein musical - Carousel.
    Gerry Marsden was a Liverpool born guy who was the lead singer of the 60s band - Gerry and the Pacemakers! In 1963 He released 'You'll Never Walk Alone' as a single which went straight to number one and stayed there for 4weeks. Liverpool and the fans loved it so much they adopted it as their Football Anthem. As the years went on Gerry Marsden was invited to all major Liverpool games to Sing You'll Never Walk Alone, live - which is Gerry's voice you can hear at the beginning.

      Both great cities with hard working down to earth people who have far more in common than they'd ever admit!
      Hillsborough the Truth by Phil Scratton is a very good book if anyone wants the details of how the 97 victims were unlawfully killed. It's a tough read which will probably bring a tear or two but it's part of our history and could have happened to any club.
      Nobody should go to a game and never return home.

The lies were effective because of the reputation football fans had at that time (I think we should make a distinction between football fans and soccer hooligans - anyone who goes to the match looking for a fight is no fan in my book).

    As a scouser, born and raised in liverpool, the fact this song isnt just a theme for the club, but an anthem for the whole city post Hillsborough means so much. Its engrained on our hearts (the Everton fans may say different, but even they have sung it with us at the cup final in 1989 after the disaster). We even played Everton's theme Z Cars at Anfield to commemorate a young boy murdered in the city who was an Everton fan. The song is beautiful, transcends rivalries and is how we feel on the city, you'll never walk alone, through the hardships you suffer, I'll suffer it too, cause you're my brother/sister/friend...

      Yes, Gerry & The Pacemakers took this song to No.1 in the charts in 1963. It was sung at Anfield regularly whilst it held the No 1 spot in the pop music charts and was ultimately adopted by the faithful Liverpool home supporters at Anfield and has been popular ever since.
      Whilst Gerry & The Pacemakers made the song popular with their modern arrangement in 1963 and beyond, the song You'll Never Walk Alone was originally written by American composers Oscar Hammerstein II and by Richard Rodgers for their musical "Carousel", which was released in the USA in 1945.

    4:09 - That gentleman there is Bob Paisley, Liverpool's manager from 1974-1983. He was the club's assistant manager under his legendary predecessor Bill Shankly and when Shankly retired, Paisley picked up the reigns as a sort of continuation of Shankly's legacy. Under Paisley's management, Liverpool went from one of the giants of English football to a titan of European competition, winning the European Cup (now the UEFA Champions League) three times and the UEFA Cup (UEFA Europa League) once. Of course, Liverpool were still very successful domestically during that time, winning the League six times, the League Cup (now the Carabao Cup) three times, and the Charity Shield (Community Shield) six times.

    Joel, as many other people have pointed out, the Hillsborough Disaster occurred in 1989.
    But Liverpool fans have been singing "You'll Never Walk Alone" since 1963, when the song was top of the UK Singles Charts.
    Before football games started, while waiting for kick-off, popular songs were played over loudspeakers in the stadium and the crowd would sing along to it. This song was a huge favourite and thus became the Liverpool Anthem as from the sixties.
    But as pointed out, it took on even greater importance following the Hillsborough Disaster.

They were avid fans and went to Turkey where one of the best Champion League Finals was played. The team was losing 3 - 0 at half time with possibility of being whopped when suddenly the crowd started singing this anthem nearly as a prayer and the team miracously won the game. Its legendary. The player you see is Steven Gerard the Captain who lost his 10 year old cousin at Hillsborough. As a beautiful bride Gillian sang this at their wedding reception. A beautiful memory for us as she passed away 3 years later from Cancer leaving 3 sons behind. Oh by the way i am from Northern Ireland and yet this is my team. Who i go to England to watch play on occasions and take part in singing this anthem.

      I really don't think you can connect the two incidents and I absolutely know that the young people who died in the Hillsborough disaster we're not the same people who were at the game you are talking about. English fans from a lot of clubs, and that includes Nottingham Forest, behaved appallingly during the 70s and 80s. At that time football was being infiltrated by awful organisations such as the National Front and they were present and obvious at a lot of the games where violence overtook the stadium.
      I am not going to pretend that football is sweet and innocent and the game today is a million miles from the game as it was in the 70s and 80s. The people involved in the incident you talk about were not football fans, we're not real Liverpool fans, they were hooligans who were there for one reason and one reason only, violence.
      With a lot of soul searching and a very determined effort by the Football Association and every single club involved, we have almost completely eliminated these worthless human beings from our game. People feel welcome and safe at games these days. You really cannot connect what happened at those two games. I don't for one minute believe your point is valid.

    Joel, you might be surprised to learn that it is in fact an American song from the great musical theatre partnership of Richard Rogers and Oscar Hammerstein- the same men who wrote Climb Every Mountain ( from The Sound of Music), that you reacted so emotionally to in a previous video. In Carousel, this song is sung by an older woman as she comforts a young woman, after they have witnessed the younger woman's lover, Billy, die in a knife fight. An odd journey- from the heart of class American Musical Theatre to the football stadiums in Britain! As others are commenting, it was had already been adopted by Liverpool fans a couple of decades earlier. In fact, Richard Rogers is reputed to have said " Shouldn't I be getting royalties for this?" But he was told it would be somewhat difficult to collect them in such circumstances, and that he should just be proud that one of his great anthems should have been adopted from such an unexpected place.

This should remind us all that whateber club we support other fans are basicly the same - they love their club just as I do - they are sporting rivals not enemies - no room for hate in sport, or life in general.

    Bros! Watch the Liverpool fans sing this at home after beating Barcelona at home 4-0. Barcelona was considered the best team in the world with Messi and came into the game with a 3-0 advantage. Nobody gave Liverpool a chance but they won the game 4-0.......the emotion!! Players and fans alike in tears singing. Possibly the greatest comeback ever!!

    The original song was a show tune by Rodgers and Hammerstein then covered by Gerry and the Pacemakers which Liverpool adopted. It was a massive tragedy and so easily prevented.

    Guys! I've been a Liverpool fan for 60 years. We sing "You'll Never Walk Alone" at every game. The guy on the banner is the legendary former Liverpool manager Bob Paisley. ❤❤❤
