Be sure to go vote for which new version you like the best!
Nothing in the Steelers Nation realm is as infectious as singer Roger Wood rolling through the bass-driven lyrics of "Here We Go."
We've all heard it and, whether fueled by Pittsburgh pride or a few aluminum bottles of Iron City, we've all sung along.
... Here we go, Steelers, here we go, Pittsburgh's goin' to the Super Bowl, here we go ...
But as confetti fluttered to the Ford Field turf in the early February celebration after the Super Bowl XL triumph, the stinging reality hit -- the song would need to be updated.
No longer did the following lyric fit nicely in the song:
... Cowher Power will get the job done, this is the year we'll get that one for the thumb ...
With the fifth title, the Steelers got that one for the thumb and a new lyric is mandatory.
Now Wood is offering Steelers Nation a chance to sway the direction of Black & Gold history. Fans can have a direct impact on lyrics that will be sung, out loud, from the shower to the corner of Heinz Field's Gold 1A parking lot to Steelers bars in Southern California and anywhere Steelers fandom stretches.
