Alright, so you wanna know about them Phillies walk up songs, huh? Well, gather ’round, and I’ll tell ya what I know. It ain’t rocket science, mind you, just a bunch of tunes them fellas play when they’re struttin’ up to bat.
Now, I ain’t no expert on this music stuff, but I hear all sorts of things. Some of it’s that rap music, the kind the youngsters listen to. You know, that boom-boom-boom stuff. Guys like that Kanye West fellow, they call him “Ye” now, I reckon. He’s popular, that’s for sure. Then there’s that other stuff, the rock music. I remember hearin’ somethin’ about the Red Hot Chili Peppers bein’ played. Spicy name, them fellas. And wouldn’t you know it, even that old-timer Frank Sinatra gets a spin sometimes. Guess there’s somethin’ for everyone, even an old lady like me… well, not really for me, but you get the point.
It seems like every year they got new songs. They say “ushering in a new MLB year also means new walk up songs”, whatever that means. Fancy talk for “new season, new music,” I guess. And it ain’t just one song, no sir. These fellas got a whole playlist of songs. They pick and choose what they want, dependin’ on the mood, I reckon. One fella, he started with somethin’ called “Look Ahead,” then he switched it up to “Lay Low.” Can’t keep up with these young’uns, always changin’ their minds.
- Rap Music is Popular A lot of them fellas like that rap music. It’s got a beat, I’ll give it that.
- Rock Music Too But it ain’t all rap. Some of them like that rock and roll, the kind with guitars and drums.
- Oldies But Goodies And then you got your classics, like that Frank Sinatra fellow. Timeless, they say. I guess some things just never go out of style.
I heard tell that back in 2022, when them Phillies were doin’ real good, goin’ to that World Series thing, they had some great walk-up songs. Folks were talkin’ about it, how the music got ’em all fired up. Music can do that, you know. Get you movin’ and shakin’, even if you’re just sittin’ in the stands. Or on your couch, like me. I ain’t been to a game in ages.
And it ain’t just durin’ the games, neither. They got songs for after the games too. Somethin’ called a “post game mix“. Like that one song, “Winners Win” by them Armentani Brothers. Sounds like somethin’ you’d play after you, well, win. Makes sense, I guess. They even got special Phillies mixes, official ones, so you know it’s the real deal. One fella even uses a remix of “Dancing On My Own,” can you believe that? Dancin’ on your own, sounds lonely if you ask me.
So, there you have it. That’s the lowdown on them Phillies walk up songs. It’s a mix of new and old, rap and rock, and everything in between. It’s all about gettin’ them fellas pumped up and ready to play ball. And I reckon it works, ’cause them Phillies, they’re a pretty good team. Even an old lady like me can see that. And if they keep pickin’ good tunes, maybe they’ll just keep on winnin’. Walk up songs, they’re important, more than you think. They set the mood, get the crowd goin’. It’s all part of the show, you see. Just like the hot dogs and the peanuts. It wouldn’t be baseball without ’em.
Now, I gotta go make some supper. All this talk about music and baseball has made me hungry. But you remember what I told ya, alright? Phillies walk up songs, they’re a big deal. And that’s all there is to it. Don’t go askin’ me no more questions now, I’ve told you all I know.
