So I'm watching "La Fureur" the other night and Youppi comes running
out..he's the guest "judge". He came out to a song about the Expos..it
sounded very, very old.

Do the Expos have their own song like the Blue Jays do? Does it get played
at games at all or has it been mothballed? I don't remember hearing it when
I visited the Big O last summer..

How's Youppi's singing voice?

When I went to the final game of the 2002 season, they played a nice
retrospective documentary about the 1969 Expos on the Diamondvision. I
seem to recall an Expos song during that program, but I've not heard it
before or since.

The Expos have a song originating from 1969 called 'les Expos Sont La"
in English simply "The Expos Theme Song" composed by Marc Gélinas -
there were no french lyrics orignally only an instrumental that used
to be played before each broadcast but in 1969 there were english
lyric composed .. it had been "mothballed" for year until last summer
when i contact the team I suggested they play as they used to .. well
they did for the rest of the year when the players came onto the field
... but this year it disapeared again .. I have a copy of the remake
done circa 1984 but not the original .. there is some Expos
footage/audio in the CBC archive available online and you can hear a
portion of the original song .... "Those Expos ..play to win, they
know the way to win, here comes a run for Mon-tre-al .. they got their
name from the fair, and brought evryone there and no everyone's
yelling play ball .. is that a band I hear? I want to sing and cheer
..."
