The songs we sing at matches are either very familiar melodies or very easy to pick up. But you will need to know the words (mostly Japanese with a bit of Portuguese thrown in) so this section aims to help those Kobe fans who have not yet mastered the tunes.
| 神戸讃歌 (KOBE SANKA) If you were to learn only one Vissel song, this would be it. Kobe Sanka is based on the melody of the classic Edith Piaf love song "L'Hymne a l'amour" and is sung just prior to the players taking the field for each match, and at the end if we win. The lyrics contain many references to the city itself as well as the 1995 earthquake. Check out the multitude of videos on YouTube for this one. | |
