Would rather have this man start in the playoffs than Carlos Zambrano.

Edward takes a stab at writing this year’s “Go Cubs Go,” or possibly “The Cubbies Are Rockin’.” Sure, it’s not quite as boundy as “Men In Blue,” but what’s what happens when you write a Cubs song and don’t ask Gary Woods and Jody Davis to perform on it. (Most of the lyrics can be found here or here.)
The version here is from Ed’s pre-set at the Vic in August 2007; it’s a little rougher-sounding but that should be taken care of on that official release.

Stumble It!
Speaking of MEN IN BLUE (aka HERE’S TO YOU, MEN IN BLUE)
This Cub’s song is part of a 2008 Cubs Fans CD, called: TAKE ME OUT TO A CUBS GAME, supported by Major League Baseball & the Chicago Cubs…Check it out:

Uhhmm… no it’s not. That CD has a bunch of old-timers but no Eddie Vedder… nice try though.
This is so awesome! Thanks for posting. I’ve been looking for it for a while. As far as the Go Cubs Go cd, well worth the $20. I also recommend “I Believe in Miracles,” sung by Eddie Vedder. Personally I think it should be OUR “Journey” song.
Anyhow, great song and go Cubs
CUBS BLOW, THEY ARE A JOKE, AND ANY AMERICAN LEAGUE TEAM WILL KILL THEM IN THE BIG SHOW (IF THE LOSERS EVEN MAKE IT)
Heard the song on the radio for the first time today (101.9- chicago) The DJ said they only released 100 copies of CD and at this point no other way to get a copy. Thanks for posting!
Hey, the new Eddie Veddor song “All the Way” from the his recent visit to Chicago is being played on 103.5 (the mix) here in Chicago, they played it twice today. Although they’ve only distributed 100 copies on disk to “certain people” enough requests, maybe he’ll actually cut the track on a consumer album?
Yes it is the version being played in Chicago. Although they don’t add the stab at the White Sox at the end.
Same song, different version. The one he recorded at the Aud. Theater is the one they’re playing on the radio. It’s basically the same, but much more “buttoned up”. Thanks for posting!!
The Cubs suck.
Being a HUGE Eddie Vedder fan and a HUGE Cubs fan…it just doesn’t get any ‘Vedder’ than this!!! I LOVE IT!!!
“I Believe in Miracles,” sung by Eddie Vedder is a great song…actually PJ did it at Alpine a few years ago and Kerry Wood was there… every time before the chorus, EV would yell out to Kerry….as to say “Dude i believe in the cubs.”
goose bump city….
Also the first time I heard the cubs song was at the Vic last year and the place went nuuuts
Jeff,

Enjoy!
Anyone know how I can download a copy of this song?
It’s interesting that the Cubs music CD “Take Me Out to a Cubs Game” was mentioned (in Allen’s post). I know one of the producers for that CD and have heard rumors they are coming out with a new CD sometime soon that will include some new songs, possibly the Eddie Vedder song. I’m really hoping this makes it on, huge fan here.
For any other fans interested, the website for the CD is http://www.takemeouttoacubsgame.com

I bought that Cubs CD “Take Me Out To A Cubs Game” at a game a few weeks ago. Great gift to give someone. But it definitely needs the Eddie Vedder song.
