Songs on the Patriots and Seahawks Playlists Following the Super Bowl

We previewed Super Bowl XLIX from all possible angles. And following one of the greatest championship games in NFL history, we even reviewed it from every possible angle.

How about we have some fun here? Heartbreak for one team becomes euphoria for another team. That’s what makes professional sports so great.

But how do the players from each team cope with winning and losing? Let’s assume for a quick second here that they’re not unlike most of us. Music is—and always has been—a great outlet for what we as individuals go through.

Lets check in on five songs that MUST be on each team’s playlist following what was an absolutely amazing, drama-filled Super Bowl.

New England Patriots

All I Do Is Win (DJ Khaled featuring Ludacris, Rick Ross, Snoop Dogg & T-Pain) 

I would legitimately pay money to hear Tom Brady sing the following lyrics…

All I Do is win win win no matter what got money on mind I can never get enough. And everytime I step up in the building, everybody hands go up.”

The level of awesome that would come with Brady blasting out T-Pain lyrics would probably break the Internet forever.

We Are The Champions (Queen) 

So corny. Probably even too corny for Bill Belichick and company. Though, a duet between Rob Gronkowski and Robert Kraft could probably salvage one of the most over-played songs in the history of song-making.

Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger (Daft Punk) 

Tron, the New England Patriots, Katy Perry, the Super Bowl—not sure why no one thought about this before. After all…

Work it harder make it better. Do it faster makes us stronger. More than ever hour after. Our work is never over.”

Ambiguity by damned, this could very well have some sort of relation to football. Despite winning their fourth Super Bowl of the Brady era, this team isn’t going to stop working for what could end up being defined as the greatest era of football from any organization in NFL history. You know very well, Belichick and company are already looking to the future—even just hours after winning the Super Bowl.

Simply The Best (Tina Turner) 

Just vision of Brady singing this Tina Turner classic in the shower while Gisele organizes her exit plan from their relationship.

You’re simply the best, better than all the rest. Better than anyone, anyone I’ve ever met. I’m stuck on your heart and hang on every word you say. Tear us apart, baby, I would rather be dead.”

Okay, maybe Mr. Brady is more likely to sing this while looking at himself in the mirror. After all, who is a bigger fan of Tom than Tom himself?

Winner Takes It All (Sammy Hagar) 

Watch with open eyes. ‘Till it’s time . To take it all the way. Every day ,the game is ours to play . Oh tell me why there are no alibis. Winner takes it all—loser takes a fall.”

It would have been pretty grand if Malcolm Butler would have jumped up and started singing these tunes in Russell Wilson’s grill after the interception. 15-yard penalties be darned, that would have been awesome.

 

Seattle Seahawks

The World’s Worst Loser (George Jones)

For the first one, let’s go all the way back to 1963. Can’t you just imagine Bruce Irvin attempting to sing this to the Lombardi Trophy before Brady pulls it was from him in a huff of anger?

I’ve been called the world’s worst loser. And I don’t doubt a moment that it’s true. But I can’t smile pretending I won’t miss you. I’m the world’s worst loser when I’m losing you.”

Sadly, this song from the great George Jones translates very well to Seattle’s lack of success towards the end of the Super Bowl on Sunday. However, I somehow doubt anyone on that team—aside from Pete Carroll—even knows about this song.

You Can’t Always Get What You Want (Rolling Stones)

Probably for the first time in his life (sarcasm), Russell Wilson knows this feeling. The Rolling Stones may have put up one of the worst Super Bowl halftime performances in history, so it stands to reason that Seattle would have this on its playlist right now. After all, we are now talking about combining the worst musical performance in the history of the big game with the worst play call in the history of the game.

Fade To Black (Metallica)

I can just see Seattle players sporting black eye-shadow and trench coats following what had to be a disheartening loss. This rage-filled, emo-style rock classic has to be considered one of the most depressing songs of all-time.

Life, it seems, will fade away. Drifting further every day. Getting lost within myself…nothing matters, no one else. I have lost the will to live, simply nothing more to give. There is nothing more for me. Need the end to set me free.”

Ouch.

Poor Pitiful Me (Linda Ronstadt)

Okay. Now we have reached a serious level of ridiculousness here. Please tell me you are not envisioning Marshawn Lynch singing this tune. That would have disaster written all over it. In any event, the following lyrics pretty much fit what Lynch and company must be going through right now.

Well I lay my head on the railroad track. Waiting on the Double E, but the train don’t run by here no more. Poor poor pitiful me.”

Hey, at least we didn’t choose “When You Wish Upon a Star.” That would have seriously been a case of kicking the Seahawks while they are down.

Even the Losers (Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers)

Some say Seattle should be happy it made it to the Super Bowl. Others say that the team can always look back to a 43-8 demolishing of the Denver Broncos last February. Both may very well be true, but that’s a case of living in the past.

Two cars parked on the overpass. Rocks hit the water like broken glass. I should have known right then it was too good to last. God, it’s such a drag when you’re livin’ in the past.”

Sorry, had to throw Tom Petty in here somewhere.
