Little Girl Dances to New Arsenal Anthem - The Angel North London Forever | Cole Lam 15 Years Old

- The reason why you see me wearing my Arsenal top a lot when I am out playing on a public piano is because whenever I come out to watch Arsenal play at home at the Emirate Stadium, I always come and play at St Pancras. Sometimes it's before the match, sometimes after depending on the time. This time, it's a special one, as it was the last game of the season - Arsenal playing Everton at home.
What's brilliant is that recently, there was a new song by @louis_dunford called The Angel that has pretty much become the new anthem for Arsenal. The main chorus starts North London Forever - and it's the chorus that is played and sung in the stadium. It was first played in the previous home game (against Leeds) and now is definitely linked to Arsenal forever. I first heard it 2 weeks ago, and I have been a little obsessed by it! I had to create my piano cover of it, and knew I had to have it ready for the last game of the season. Unless you are an Arsenal fan, you probably won't recognise it, but if you are - you definitely will. Love that they little girl appreciated the music, and was free to dance away!
If you listen to the song, it talks about living and growing up in North London and how the place and building may change, but the people is what makes it special. I did not grow up in Islington (where Arsenal is based), but grandparents lived there, and my dad grew up there. They lived in Caledonian Road - which the song includes (well, The Cally which is also on the road), and my dad actually went to school less than a mile away from the Arsenal stadium. I know I don't have that connection like my dad does to the place and the song, but when you hear it sung in the stadium, you get goosebumps on top of your goosebumps.

What do you think about Arsenal's season?
Overall it was OK I think
Bravo mate!
What a great cover. Absolutely love Louis’ music and this one will truly push the players and fanbase further next season.
Bravo 👏🏾! Goosebumps for days!
Might never get a chance of living in London or even watch an Arsenal game but I love it when the ones close to it bring it out to us far from it 💞💞 North London Forever ♥♥
Whenever I watch Arsenal home games on my phone , I sing along that song before underway. Proud to be a gunner. Love from 🇲🇲
This song makes me so proud to support Arsenal, well done lad
I'm Millwall but absolutely love this song.
Louis certainly is a talent.
Absolutely brilliant! Well done you did the song & the Arsenal proud.
Arsenal is more than a Football Club its an Emotion!!....North London Forever!!...Well played Lad absolutely beautiful
Cole. Just came across this and wanted to thank you. Really impressed with your talent and wish that i was there to witness. Fans like you make us the best club in the world. North London FOREVER.
Made me even more prouder to be an arsenal fan!!
As many you know Arsenal FC, you know you rated little about that club, but the supporters of that club suffer a lot, still they remain loyal to their home and their club. This is their song of hope.
As you know Cole, I was busy in the background at St Pancras when you were playing this. Talking to Ari and also to a lady from Trinity College London (your qualifying body), who was really impressed. Sorry I wasn't listening to you at the time. Love this one and the lyrics are so right for The Angel (Islington) and Highbury (home of Arsenal). For your fans from outside the UK who may know the London Monopoly Board, "Angel" is one of the light blue properties. As someone who was born and spent my whole life in London, I related to this one. Well Done !!
Lived in Holloway as a kid , can really relate to this .Thank you...?and an Arsenal fan who grew up with Good ol Arsenal
Beautiful how his fingers dance across the keys with such grace beautiful..
My question at the back of my mind for sometimes was already answerd "wearing of your arsenal top more often than your ordinary shirts worn by teeners like you thanks for your info well the song you're playing is nice its lyrics just right for the team and people who are fans of the team you also loved.as always lm amazed with all the songs you play on ,my day is not complete without watching, listening to your videos new and old ones as well.thanks so much for the happiness that you bring me throuhg your music wish you all success on your chosen field of entertaining fans around the world.love you as usual Cole Lam.God bless you and your family.
Crying again… sorry 🤣 it’s the piano sound and the back shot of an amazing young artist in all that daily going on. I really hope you have every success come your way, you truly deserve it. I can imagine your loved ones are immensely proud! 👍✨
Keep coming back to this beautiful performance. COYG ❤
Wolves fan here. What a tune. What an anthem. Gooo Arsenal.
I am soooo frickin proud to be an Arsenal fan and a Londoner! Arsenal and London forever!!!
Man that Arsenal fan in the retro away kit was about 10 seconds too late walkin past lol. Great work Cole!
Great work mate. Keep it up. NORTH LONDON FOREVER!!!
U really transmitted emotions, reason Why u got ur Young dancer! Thx.!
Beautiful playing, great pianist.. 🙏👍👏👍
Well done Kid. Pure class.
This is the slowest version I have ever heard you play, but I absolutely love it!
Just found your channel tonight (Australian time) I was born in Shoreditch and been an Arsenal supporter all my life. My Australian husband is an Arsenal fan, we visited their stadium in 2019 and he was happy. I’m sure I’ll be seeing more of you in mainstream soon. Keep up the good work.
Really fantastic words fail me
Good job! Thank you for this show!
Well played Cole! Greetings from Thailand. COYG!
Hi Cole, Having checked this video out again and particularly seeing Don's comment about the lyrics being typically British. I thought it might be helpful to your fans who are not from London to provide a translation. Some of these words are London's Rhyming slang. "Battle Cruiser" is "Boozer" or better known as a public house or "pub". "Rosie Lee" is a "Cup of Tea" "A Ruby with the Lads" can be a bit complicated and refers to a "Ruby Murray" who was a popular singer from the 1950's and early 60's and rhymes with "Curry". The other words that are London slang are "Muckers" who are friends. "Manor" refers to my area or district. "A Hoister selling Clobber" is a thief selling clothes. I hope that helps.
Thank you, Bob, for taking the time to explain. Now I like the song even more
Thank you !
It’s good too for people who are not native English speakers 🙂
Oh I had NO IDEA! Thanks for the translation
awesome talent. not the same ppl every week so keep doing what you do and I guarantee u reach more. used to be there 98-02 running with the lads (Scottish gooner) but now only get back once or twice a season. great to see the old team from the day even though we are bald or grey or limping we all still recognise each other even though we may never even have known each others names....back in the day a smile and a nod was enough between the boys! COYG
Hope to see you performing this with Louis Dunford at the Emirates in May when we win the league.
COYG
That's so cute 🥰
Amazing playing as always Cole 🎹🎶👍 that was so cute I could cry🥲
Goosebumps brings a year to my eye
Ok I'm lying I'm boulling
But it's what the ARSENAL has been crying out for
To unite the club
To heather
As one
North London forever
What ever the weather
These streets are our o own
And our hearts will Leave you never
The Arsenal forever
Will be in our hooomessss
Love this man! You are awesome dude! 👏👏👏👏
Keep it up bro. It's amazing
Brilliant
well done bro.. North London Forever
Your a talented lad that’s for sure. I’d have loved to have seen a couple of hundred Arsenal fans joining in at the chorus. Thanks.
Having watched this video again, I have realised that I have not translated all of the lyrics for those non-Londoners and even for some Londoners. In my earlier post, I did explain much of the London slang but here are some more. "Cally to the Cross" talks about The Caledonian Road to Kings Cross, both parts of this North London area. "The Brasses from the Brothel" refers to "Brasses", the London slang for the ladies of the street (should be quite obvious) "Offie on the Corner" "Offie" is short for Off License, which is a store which sells alcohol to be consumed off the premises. In London, they need a license to sell alcohol. "Cozzers" are Policemen, that should be easy to work out. "The Thornhill to the Hemmy" or better known as the "Hemi" These are two bars or public houses in this area of North London, they are The Thornhill Arms in Caledonian Road to The Hemingford Arms in Islington. Hope that helps.
Helps a lot. Now I must visit north London next time I’m in England. I’ve mostly spent time in Brixton when in London.
Absolutely brilliant! Can't believe a gooner just walked past totally oblivious!
My favourite song
Arrrrrrsenal !!!!
Thats really good mate, well done.
Very talented!

Well done and the dancing little girl felt the music you were playing and just had to dance to it. Your talent is amazing. Thank you for sharing it with us all. 💜😊💜🇺🇸
Let's hope the best for May!
North London Forever!
Absolute class mate ❤
Nice work man. COYG!
love it ❤ come on you gunners💫
Absolutley amazing i would love to see this guy perform this on piano the programme on ch4 hosted by claudia winkleman.
Fabulous Cole ❤️
Brilliant rendition 👏
Now this beatiful tribute has been properly blessed, as some might say. I hope this gift from Cole earns it a place in an the Arsenal Football Club Museum if not their traveling promotions. And the lyrics are so Brittish.
Love it. COYG.
Played with the usual passion and feeling you have for your music, very, very nice. I really like this song, although I had never heard it before hearing you play it. The melody grabs me and I'll probably like the lyrics too, but this time I was too busy watching you and the people around you, I'll get to the lyrics next time. A small child (when they're being cute and sweet) always adds pleasure to a video and she was a cutie. Thanks for posting this one, Cole, really enjoyed it, and as always, Love ya buddy, stay safe and healthy.❤️❤️❤️👑of🎹👏👏👏
Brill really brilliant
Nice job! COYG
Well done lad
Mon the Arsenal
Arsenal have got a really good anthem there!
Beautiful Cole..you may not have grown up in Islington but you are a true and loyal gooner ❤
North London Forever! 🔴🔴
This performance will leave me never.

COYG 🔴⚪️
Come on arsenal
Gunners… we just have class
Great work. We did much better this year
❤️🙏🏻😁
Arsenal!!!
Sorry, it was Gary who said the Lyrics were typically British. - He's right
Yep spot on, on the first day of the season get people to sing along, I wanna hear north London forever fucking load
Wow Cole your voice is getting deep..I thought it was your dad speaking...the song sounds like a song called hey there Delilah by the white tees ..the red writing is hard to.read
Fucking brill it's what is Gooners have been crying out for an anthem to unite us forever
North London forever
You should be inside the clock end or north bank before games playing iconic tunes
Actually I have a season ticket in the North Bank. We are LOUD there!
is there two pianos at that train station? i just noticed that sometimes you're at a black one (eltons gift?) and then other times its brown.
Yes
Hi, Cole. Don't know if you'll see this or remember the short exchange we had a few weeks back.(fellow gooner that was considering buying a piano). But as I'm not from London, I was wondering if Spurs' ground is between the Cally and The Cross, and whether that could be the 's**thole in between' that Louis refers to in his lyrics? 🤣 Also, I finally chose a piano. Got the donner dep20 for 280 squid off Amazon. Been using the Hoffman academy lessons on youtube, and can now play a half decent, two handed Happy Birthday too. Slowly working on Nuvole Bianche as my 'side project' while I follow the lessons.
Thanks again for the inspiration, brother. Like with the Arsenal, "my heart will leave you never". Stay safe. COYG 🔴⚪
P.S. Cant believe we bottled Top 4. Hope you can play the Europa League anthem. 😅
Cool! The dep20 should be a good piano as it's basically the same as the one I use for my tutorial videos. Spurs stadium isn't there, I think the lyrics basically just taking about the places and shops between the cally and the cross
Ref ‘The Cross’….if it is Kings Cross then no WHL is not near there. However Louis Dunford could be referring to Waltham Cross, which is called The Cross locally. But I am not sure he is specifically having a go at WHL.
