Remember when we made a pop record for the final.

[gbhibby]

I am sure it was the 1972 league cup final the club and made the pop record Turnbulls Tornadoes and Hibernian give us a goal. They composer I think was Johnny Keating my dads mate from school.
Still sung today at games stood the test of time.
Wonder what song would be done today probably a rap by Ryan.

[BILLYHIBS]

Can you remember who wrote it ?

Sheila Hart. Don't think it was for a final, though?

I think Sheila Hart had some input but I think Johnny Keating who wrote most of it.

We need to add this man to the famous Hibs supporters. Produced the singles and wrote most of it as well.Shelia Harts input was suggesting the tune for it.

Johnny Keating wrote both of them Billy. Tom Hart wanted Sheila to be given a bit of credit but she did not write it

Check out the link to Johnny Keating obituary.

[Jamesie]

The Keating family are big Hibs fans and Johnny’s son, Martin, is still in the music business in London I believe, running a school. A few years ago he sent me a couple of classic tracks - namely those which were recorded for the “Team that wouldn’t die” video in 1991. Absolutely brilliant Hibs songs that I’d love to hear played at Easter Road!

I see it

I am well aware of Johnny Keating and what a talent he was and a big hibee

I find it hard to believe he would allow a record label to attribute his work to another composer and plaster her name all over the ‘45 - see link

I agree there is no doubt Keatings had a big influence on Hibernian Give Us A Goal but the credit should still go to Shiela Hart for having the initial idea and writing it

I believe Taylor Swift is currently having to redo all her music as someone stole her copyright

Pretty sure there have been threads on this topic in the past certainly came up in the Lockdown Quizes

No problem Billy its just I have a recollection that there was a article in a newspaper that her name appeared on it to keep the chairman happy. Johnny did this as a Labour of Love so probably wasn't that bothered.

Billy doing this from memory but Johnny was my dads pal at school. My dad would cut out articles relating to Johnny. You must have some collection of stuff on Hibs. Keep up the good work mate you should write a book I would certainly buy it.

Jamesie, are these tracks available anywhere? There’s one on that in particular that I absolutely love

[LancsHibs]

What about the ‘Hi-bee, Hibernian’ single from sometime in the late 80’s I think? No sure exactly why it was produced? Don’t think it was for a cup match or anything

Is there a reason why 'Turnball's Tornadoes' sounds so similar to 'Happy Xmas (War is Over) by John Lennon, or just a coincidence? I used to think that they were the same song with different lyrics when I was a kid!

Lennon's Xmas single was heavily indebted to Keatings and Hart's superb Turnbull's Tornadoes. It's fair to say Lennon always wore his musical influences on his sleeve.

John Lennon.

He was staying with an aunt in Currie at the time.

He was at the Hibs game v East Fife in 1968 and heard the Hibs fans singing, "all we are saying, is give us a goal", before you know the buggers got a solo single out and Give Peace a Chance becomes a worldwide hit.
