It's been played after Devils goals since the 1990-91 season. And it's been played everywhere else, too, it seems, at one point or another, after goals are scored. It's seen good days —and bad days. The man who composed the song, Gary Glitter, has had better days himself, having been accused of sex abuse more than a decade ago.But "Rock and Roll Part II" is slowly making its way out of most hockey arenas — and it's time for the Devils to do the same.
They gave it a try — twice, actually. Once in the last season in the Meadowlands, and once in the Rock. But for some reason, it always resurfaces.
But the time is now to start fresh. New CBA. New season.
And I hope, a new goal song.
Quite frankly, the "you suck" addition is what has made me want to see the song go away most. That part is just juvenile and stupid.
Some will hate me for this.
Others won't.
I simply think the time has come something new — so long as it doesn't sound like that stupid Nazi-march bite-off thing the Rangers play when they score.
