agree on the song and get the red steppers dancing to that. Pure gold

I think the guitar into to 'Stranglehold' would be epic.
I still find it hard to believe Uncle Ted never did drugs. I mean, what the hell was "Journey to the Center of Your Mind" about then?

You could do the version from "The Blues Brothers Movie" Belushi and Band standing on stage in the Country Bar behind the chicken Wire fenced stage trying to find something to please the crowd so They are not being showered with glass from breaking beer bottles.
"Mam, What type of music do You play here?"
"Oh We have both kinds, Country and Western"
They need to match up a few clips of Coach Cignetti on the Big Screen doing his facial expressions with about half of this during the 2 minute time out when we're winning big...
Here is another thought. play the theme song from the Blues Brothers Movie and put together a dance group dressed in dark suits, hats, and sunglasses and let them mimic some of the dance moves from the movie. no singing for the crowd to do, but it should get Them moving.
Sweet Caroline by Neil Diamond. Not kidding. I've seen it work with small crowds.

For consideration, think lyrics age well (for students and alums) and apply to the program Cig has started. It is a band current enough for current students and alums <55. Plus, if you are looking for stadium energy at end of 3rd quarter, the video below should demonstrate that.
When you were young - killers
You sit there in your heartache
Waiting on some beautiful boy to
To save you from your old ways
You play forgiveness
Watch it now
Here he comes
He doesn't look a thing like Jesus
But he talks like a gentlemen
Like you imagined
When you were young
Can we climb this mountain?
I don't know
Higher now than ever before
I know we can make it if we take it slow
Let's take it easy
Easy now
Watch it go
We're burning down the highway skyline
On the back of a hurricane that started turning
When you were young
When you were young
And sometimes you close your eyes
And see the place where you used to live
When you were young
They say the devil's water
It ain't so sweet
You don't have to drink right now
But you can dip your feet
Every once in a little while
You sit there in your heartache
Waiting on some beautiful boy to
To save you from your old ways
You play forgiveness
Watch it now
Here he comes
He doesn't look a thing like Jesus
But he talks like a gentlemen
Like you imagined
When you were young
Talks like a gentleman
Like you imagined
When you were young
I said, he doesn't look a thing like Jesus
He doesn't look a thing like Jesus
But more than you'll ever know
IU came out of no where this year. Nobody expected that IU would be 9-0. Kinda came out of nowhere like a HURRICANE so I say the Scorpions Rock You Like a Hurricane is a fitting song.
I'd give it a whirl during one of the timeouts... with this exact video on the screens. Might catch on. I'm not opposed.
I think 50,000 people singing it would bring some energy.
It's a helluva lot better than Pink Houses
Yes, they could play a lot of Indiana artists. I suggested Shotgun by Jr. Walker and the All Stars above. I think that one would go over well and Jr. Walker is Hoosier, as is Booker T.
They played it at the Michigan game. I had to come back here to confirm it was the same song.
Plus side, apparently they read the forum. Down side, it is awful and brought zero energy.
Hell, the Germans yesterday were singing Sweet Caroline during play. That's soccer fan energy for ya. We'll find it eventually.
It seemed like a LOT of people were singing along with Queen at the end of third quarter!
Hey Baby and Sweet Caroline have been played at Memorial for decades. They used to have a text vote for the next song the band played.
Just because Ped St has a full stadium doesn't make Hey baby or We Are "taken" by them. In fact IU cheerleaders had an excellent dance routine they did at BB games to hey baby.
To hell with Ped St.
Both songs work, pick one and gooooo.
Unoriginal yes, but the crowd gets into it. The pic of Hep's rock on the screen helps to make it out own.
Several of the suggestions in this thread I have never heard of.
To find something original that most of the people know is quite a task and I am not sure it exists.
