Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 сер 2024
- Performed exclusively by local artists, “We Are Cleveland” was written in collaboration with the Guardians and produced by Sam Getz and Jimmy Weaver, two founding members of the Cleveland-based band, Welshly Arms. Getz and Weaver are joined on drums by Joey “Coach” Hanna, who has toured and recorded with artists such as Bootsy Collins & Gavin Degraw. Accompanying the duo on vocals are two other members of Welshly Arms, the husband and wife team of Jon and Bri Bryant (“Lady Bri”), alongside Stacey Richardson (“Sarah’s Girl”), who has performed with the likes of Gerald Levert and Anthony Hamilton, in addition to assisting with vocal arrangements for past Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction ceremonies in Cleveland.
Lyrics:
Are you ready now?
Get up and count it down
It's our time, it's our town, we should make it loud
216 family
It's who we're proud to be
From the east to the west side sing it with me
We are.
We are.
Cleveland!
[Guardians chorus]
We're right where we belong
Singin' Ohio songs
Let 'em hear it, let 'em feel it, make your voices strong
We never compromise
Never apologize
In this town, knock us down, we will always rise
We are.
We are.
Cleveland!
[Guardians chorus]
We will fight
Strong and proud
We will all defend this town
Loyal and strong
Fight for what we believe in
This city we love, yeah, we all stand for Cleveland
We are Cleveland!
We are Cleveland!
March 2022: This has to be a joke, right?
March 2023: WE ARE! WE ARE! CLEEEEEEEEEVLAAAAANDDDD GUUUUUUUUUUUARDIANS!
First place guards how’s it going 😊
@@derpy501st2 Gonna spend the 4th of July driving around my neighborhood at night blasting this out of my car loud enough that people can't hear the fireworks.
It's catchy, but so is syphilis.
Omg Hanna!
30 cases of syphilis
But you can't get a sexually transmitted disease from this song..so what are you applying?
@Miller's Retro Drive-in huh I'm sorry we're you trying to burn me with a pun...failed.
Lmao!... Omg!..
Do you do ANY market research? This is horrific embarrassing and sad
Preach
This sounds like you asked a group of High School Bible Study kids to do their best impression of Imagine Dragons.
Yo I'm weak 🤣
Too accurate!
Which really says something, because Imagine Dragons is "serious" music made for 11-year-olds.
Yoooo LMAO
EXACTLY
🎶🎵 "we never compromise..." 🎵 🎶
Ohhh the irony of the lyrics. Didn't anybody read them prior to recording?
Imagine the job posting for the song composers. “Professional baseball team seeking composers to re-brand team with new song. Must have no soul or humanity whatsoever.”
Yikes.
3:23 of time I can never get back in my life
If you thought the song was long just wait til you sit thru this upcoming season.
Save your ticket money and just go to Cedar Point a few more times this summer.
@@JohnDoe-od7ye I'll be going to the games hopefully
@@JohnDoe-od7ye Go Guardians 😁
@Miller's Retro Drive-in :) ok
@@JohnDoe-od7ye I'm not going to any games. Use to go to at least 10 a year. I'm done with this team.
We literally just wanted an outfielder in free agency
The team spent all its time and money putting up the “Guardians” sign over the scoreboard this offseason.
Seriously, what flustercluck that was. What an omen for 2022!
😂😂😂
🤪🤪🤪🤣🤣🤣
Have a song instead
At least Steven Kwan is the second coming of Barry Bonds
This is why YT took the number of dislikes off.
Because their servers can only handle a number below 10,000,000. Don't tell me that abomination will replace "Cleveland Rocks" as the team's victory anthem...
I love thid
@halloween pumpkin They already censor tons of comments and burry videos they deem controversial or offensive so no one can find them. UA-cam is trash.
"we never compromise, never apologize"
the irony lol
"Guardians" LMAO
The indians are now the biggest joke in the league bowing down to the leftist mob who made them change their name LOLLLL
Lmao I’m not even pro Or against name change and that made me laugh
Someone tell the Dolans to sell the team. They don’t care anymore.
This song has “corporate cringe” written all over it 😬
When they started with the wo woaaahh i cried a bit on the inside
Yeah it does. Couldn't agree more.
Totally agree. Perfect description.
Yep 100%
Talking tribe did to but we still loved the shit outta that song. And as of 2022 we in1st
WHOEVER picked the new name, logo and this theme song should be FIRED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Then you shouldn't be a fan...
Had to stop after 45 seconds.. maybe should’ve saved the money producing this and tried to pay someone to hit over .100
Hard to think of a song that sounds less "Cleveland" than this.
Can’t disagree more lol
We're just another city now.
I do like the song, though I feel like this would have been better suited as a Browns anthem.
Because that "It's Tribe Time Now" song was? And the "We're Talking Baseball" song they used in the 90's was used by many other teams.
Not depressing enough? 😆 .. sorry they couldn't afford the license to use "Hurt" by Johnny Cash
This song is sounding a lot better since we just won the division! GO GUARDS!
came here to say this
Definitely grew on me!
It been grew on me this my ringtone and we are ready is my song for texts
It sounded great all season though!
@@royellvuitton2287 how did you get it as a ringtone man?
Dolans, sell the team
Horrible
My dream is to see the Dolans sell the team, and the new owner promptly moves them out of Cleveland - just as a 🖕 to all the fans
Its not that bad
why indians what did you think it was offensive😢
Yea
Not my team. Wish the Cleveland Indians never left town
Cry more
Lol! The Indians didn't leave town! This is The Indians, they just renamed and they started playing better baseball.
I guess the black Keys weren’t available
You think they can afford The Black Keys???
It’s hard to imagine something as shitty as the Flying G logo… This song is it!
My expectations were low but holy shit man.. 😑
My expectations were on the floor and I’m STILL disappointed.
"We Are Cleveland" (Lyrics):

I can see being cheap with salary as a financial strategy, but this song wasn't necessary. This makes me think that they are intentionally trying to destroy the Cleveland Indians
They already have. The song is for the funeral.
Some of us beg the differ.
Not too late to delete this
At first the song sounded like the Braves Chant for the Tomahawk Chop. Kinda awkward.
But for CLE, Nothing beats “Talkin’ Baseball, Talkin’Tribe.”
Should kept the tune and lyrics, change the team name.
Burn on, from Major League.
I don't understand why people are so riled up, it's not like Art Modell came back from the afterlife to flip people off.
I bet all of you like this song a whole lot more now than five months ago.
2022 American League Central Champions!!
can't wait to sing this along with the dozens of others that will attend games this year
Same here 😊
Underrated comment here.
"Dozens?" Don't exaggerate, pal. 11 is not a dozen, let alone dozens.
It's still a trash double A baseball team name. We've never been a A market team always a B market maybe.
Why do you think there will be low numbers?
Never catch me at a guardians game. I will
be back when they are the Indians again.
fuck that, you are probably a browns fan . I'm not. its a name not an ownership. politically now, you have to be careful, its in a microscope.
I wear nothing but Indians gear chief wahoo will always be alive!! I just ordered a very nice Cleveland Indians bomber leather jacket I can't wait to get it !!!
@@joshpelz4520 love to hear it. I hope there’s a lot of people that will be like you for the years to come.
@@iDrinkMug I really think that there is
Go guardians
This is straight out of Highschool Musicals, sounds like a pep rally episode where Zac Effron scores the unlikely game winning TD to win states and his girlfriend back...
Lol 😆 🤣 😂 😹 😆 🤣 😂 😹 😆
Go cleveland
That's the entire idea
He plays basketball not football 🙄
I expected bad but OMG 🤣
you know what would sound really good with this jingle? Extending Jose Ramirez' contract.
Ask and you shall receive! This song sounds great after a series win against the Jays no matter what anyway!
I love this! Big BIG Kidz Bop 37 vibes. My toddlers will love it. Well, one of them is deaf, but, you know, whatever.
You won the internet. LOL 😂
You like this?!?!
Yay
I almost never comment on YT videos but this is really bad. It might as well be the Band-Aid song it’s so vanilla. With a city that has such a heritage of rock, you’d think they could do better. I man spend money somewhere (anywhere frankly) and maybe call The Black Keys?
This hits different now
It's somewhat better if you play it at 1.25 speed
There are 54 comments and all are bad. Show us the dislikes on the video. I’m sure they are 10x the likes.
:) Love this
Right now (11:35 PM Central time), it's 280 - 320.
Give it a year and this ratio will get even worse.
The only way to see how many people dislike the video is the comments. Because UA-cam shut off the dislikes not many people feel the need to hit the dislike button anymore. I have the restore UA-cam dislike add-on and I see that on videos filled with negative comments and 2k+ views, those same videos would have maybe upwards of 200 dislikes.
This is the final day of ALDS it’s tied 2-2 LETS GO GUARDS
Guardians sounds like the name for an adult bladder control product.
Well, the play on the field thus far resembles a bowel movement so it kinda makes sense, right?
How can we keep getting everything single thing wrong with this rebuild (albeit the new logo has grown on me, but I digress). What was wrong with Cleveland Rocks?
Exactly! Like what...? Did they hit the delete button on accident? Was this the best of the worst?
"Guardians" LMAO
The indians are now the biggest joke in the league bowing down to the leftist mob who made them change their name LOLLLL
My guess? Royalties. That and the corporate marketing engine needs to keep proving it's worth. LOL
How did that monstrosity of a logo grow on you?
It probably represented the old Cleveland team name!
Indians. Forever.
Seriously? We went from Tom Hanks announcing the name change to this. Does everything with the team have to be a race to the bottom?
The Dolans: “Yes.”
I'd like to know the name of the horrific marketing consultants they hired for this whole "Guardians" thing from the very beginning. And then I'd like to shoot them all. I say this even though I'm 60 and have never even touched a gun. But as a guy/rabid sports fan who was born in a downtown Cleveland hospital that was razed and is now nothing but a parking lot, I want to retch. The name STINKS. And this song is stupid and STINKS.
@@jimbutke655 Big deal. I can explain all that in two simple words: *CENTRAL DIVISION.*
"Guardians" LMAO
The indians are now the biggest joke in the league bowing down to the leftist mob who made them change their name LOLLLL
We about to go 162-0 this year. Guard Ball let’s go!
So "Indians" was offensive, but it's OK to draw on the Indian theme in this song? Songs sucks as bad as the name and owners.
Whatever the name matters to me not…..go Cleveland Ohio’s Baseball Team. I will always Be a Fan. I’m an Icelandic Citizen but baseball stuck with me As i was born in Tiffin ohio.
liar
We really are a high-school drama team playing in the mlb😭😭
Would you rather have no MLB team at all though? You'd get an elementary school drama club team then ,below triple A or even AA due to the Rubber Ducks and Clippers. I remember the 70s. These guys aren't that. Fans want pennants every year I guess. Yet fans love the Browns?
today is opening day here in cleveland at progressive field might be playing it at thirsty parret go guardians
Great! we needed an update, i have been a fan since 75. no harm no foul, its culture.
This song is growing on me. Hopefully, onwership spend money during the off-season to bring home the title.
Guardians? We couldn't even guard a 3-1 lead 🤣
Truer words have never been spoken.
I mess with it
Ugh…didn’t make it all the way through…
I can’t imagine this being played at the beginning of a radio broadcast
Right? 100% trash
It's either that or Tom Hamilton screaming at the top of his lungs. Either way, deaf people will be the lucky ones.
Do you listen to Wtam1100 and Tom Hamilton 😂
I can! All the way to the ALDS!!!
All season last season I loved hearing it during the pregame radio lead in.
Getting major PG-13 Kidz Bop Vibes.
Hard to believe that execs were In a room at a table and went over team names and this song and said...."nailed it guys"....really mind blowing
"We Never Compromise, Never Apologize".... but you did. That's why we're here. 🙄
LMAO EXACTLY
Glad to see someone else heard that too. They're hypocrites.
Indians forever!!!
Jram extension makes this song more palatable! Go Go GuardiansGo
J Ram❤️🤍💙The Best! #11
I hope they still let John Adams and his drum in. Missed him last season.
He won’t come back. He is old, just had a stomach surgery, and there are no more Indians. That was the whole point of the drum.
Why wouldnt they? That guy is a fighter, a famous fan with a brilliant idea. Drumming isn't exclusive to native Americans, anything making noise can start a rally. I've been waiting for his return. Its not the same without him there. Age and health do not preclude anyone from being a fan in or out of the ballpark. I pray for him and hope good things for him. It wasn't an Indians thing, it was a Cleveland baseball thing. Guardians pound and make noise to scare stuff away, right? God Bless you John Adams , most of us miss you a lot. Come back when you can.
By the way, the owners said nothing from the Indians will be banned anywhere in the ballpark.
@@bobbiema6671 I never said anything will be banned. He started drumming because of the Indians. I never said he should stop or that I want him to leave, but I just do not see it happening.
@@madeinamerica7792 the point wasn't the name, but giving joy to the fans. If they changed the name and he was in good health he'd still show up.
My uncle is in a Klezmer band with him and John is struggling with just that commitment these days
Just when I thought baseball hit rock bottom somehow the Guardians found a way to go even deeper. I didn’t expect much but this is really bad.
Is rock bottom one game out of the central lead and taking 2/3 from the Dodgers?
I love the slow “Tomahawk Chop” at the beginning 😂
I think that was on purpose - that beat is very close to, if not a direct lift from, the old "Indians Fever" song from the 1970s. Us long time Indians fans remember that one.
@@joe6096 Should've rebranded Indian fever to Guardian gonorrhea
“INDIANS”
I actually like the song but I really would love a power hitting right or left fielder and a legitimate major league 1st basemen. Maybe spend more money on the team and less money on your nephews campaign for senate. You could have chose a better name. Why not call them a specific tribes name to honor them like the Florida State Seminoles do. Also why are the Atlanta Braves still allowed that name?

Perfect amount of cheesiness for a team anthem. Helps that it debuted with a division winner. GO GUARDIANS!
They say, “it’s the thought that counts.”
So…what were you thinking?
Why couldn't they just use the 1979 classic "Cleveland Rocks" by Ian Hunter?! People all over the country associate that song with the city of Cleveland because of The Drew Carrey Show already. The song was already a staple at Indians games, anyway. It seems to me like it would have been a no-brainer to make that song the new team theme song.
I can’t believe they made a full on pop song to try to make us like the name
What is this shit? Little league baseball? You can’t even make this up. Thank you Paul Dolan.
Just move the team, I don't care anymore. From being a loyal fan of 25 years, going to at least 10+ games each season, I flip flop between anger and just pure apathy for this team (which is worst than anger, anger at least is an emotion of caring in a way.)
Bro….. Moving the team would be devasting to the city and fans all across the county.
Good riddance . “I’m a loyal fan “ of 100 years but now I’m done speeches. Nobody likes cry babies. Go root for the pirates
Sure- the crowd attendance seems to have agreed, as well.
Welshly Arms did this song 👍 a Cleveland band
do they suck? it sounds like a corporate cash-in. I'd hear this in my nightmare mode car dealerships commercials
@@ryleenafziger9873 naw they're a great band

@@BIFC216 Exactly I love this poeple just hating :)
@@BIFC216 They on Tidal? I'd love to listen to their non-sellout material.
Never thought they'd make that "let's go tribe song" from the past 15 years sounds good
Just like the team…..faceless🤪
That’s offensive to people who don’t have faces. Remember fans, we’re in the new politically correct era! Don’t offend anyone!!
😊
@@JohnDoe-od7ye you seem pretty offended yourself 😂
Yeah, cause in Cleveland we only love teams with faces, like the Browns! Wait...
Good God is this bad. At least when it plays in the stadium there won't be any fans there to hear it.
GO INDIANS
I'll bet the Dolans paid hundreds for this song ,Then raised beer prices.
I’m feeling a light 5 on this LP
trans ition.
have you given this LP a listen? Did you love it? Did you hate it? What would you rate it?
LETS GO CLEVELAND LETS GOOOOOO👏👏👏👏
Cleveland Indians let's go tribe
Embarrassing to the city of Cleveland. Talk to the Cavs, they nail it with a slogan
Man what a shitty offseason/last couple of years. Im 33 and since the mid 90s I've been obsessed with this team. Never would I have thought I'd have this much apathy towards the team
I'm in the exact same boat. So much apathy... As a fan who was OBSESSED with them, I feel like they need to earn me back and each and every move they do is just horrible.
Sorry, just like the flying baseball logo.....it sucks! Never should have changed the name! At worst it should have been the Cleveland Tribe!! Logo could be a teepee on the hat/uniform! Good Grief!!!!!!!
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Should have been named the Cleveland Whoas. Barf! We're also not the Cleveland Braves.
Soembody’s got a case of the whoaooooooowhoas
Please return indians! We all miss you tribe 😢
THANK YOU PAUL DOLAN YOU CHEAP BASTARD….. THIS DOESNT FIX IT ALL BUT DAMNIT ITS A START… GO TRIBE
Put this on Apple Music I’m liking this
Same
Glad they had a hot mic in the men's room at a Browns game to record this "gem"
Let's go Indians
Sell the team bring back the Chief
gv art has its own original cleve land that I love song .Written 12 years ago being re worked... proud to be the city on the shores of the lake,something magical about this place. if you stay or part ,you always got Cleveland living in your heart....this is. cleve land that I love. workin on the video soon...... no need to rush it now. g2
Gosh you guys really think Your T-shirt company is important, don’t you? Anyone can take someone else’s art and replace the Superman Logo with the word “Cleveland” on it. How many times have you guys been sued? You make shirts. Calm down. No one cares
@@thomasweaver6996 the fact that you were upset at the content of the comment and not that it looked like it was typed out by a dyslexic ferret is impressive.
I hear another name change is on the horizon folks. Apparently ‘guardians’ is disrespectful to foster parents, so it’s back to the drawing board again. I say the Cleveland midget bashers has a great ring to it. That won’t offend anyone I’m sure.
going to be back soon
I like that chorus. Verses are a tad clunky.
Im a mariners fan, but oml this is a good song
Always will be the tribe to me. 👌🏻 And that song makes me want to put nails in my ears and do sideways barrel rolls
Let’s fucking go!!
Explain to me this… how we gonna have a logo.. after getting rid of Chief Wahoo… but they still wanna have that C on their sleeves and caps…
I still don’t agree with changing the name.. never was an issue until the MLB wanted to give us an all star weekend.. but.. guess I’m just going to have to accept the fact that change is inevitable.
Do you
Do you think the C stands for Chief and not Cleveland?
@@Cleverconveyence no.. the C doesn’t stand for Chief… but why must the outfits have the C on it. Instead of the logo? Mind you the stole it from the Cleveland Guardians Roller Derby team..
It all was a cluster fuck.. the Dolans knew what they did… and the MLB knows what they did.
