Arsenal fans sing "North London Forever" (from Louis Dunford's "The Angel") before kick-off at home games.
This anthem has become a stadium staple since 2022, belting out pride for the Gunners.

Official Lyrics

The core chorus fans belt out together is:

North London forever
Whatever the weather
These streets are our own
And my heart will leave you never
My blood will forever
Run through the stone

Sometimes it extends with Arsenal tweaks like "The Arsenal forever will be our home," shared by Dunford himself.

How It Started

Louis Dunford, an Islington-born Arsenal diehard, dropped "The Angel" in 2022. It debuted pre-match vs. Leeds on May 8, then locked in as the pre-kick-off roar at Emirates.

Fans pushed it viral—by late 2022, it echoed before every home clash, like vs. Man United.

In March 2026, it's still the go-to, with fresh 2026 fan anthems riffing on it but not replacing the classic.

Full Stadium Experience

  • Picture 60,000 voices rising as lights dim: North Bank and Clock End lead, arms aloft.
  • Often pairs with "Allez Allez Allez" extensions: "We won the league at Anfield... Mikel Arteta’s army... Allez Allez Allez!"
  • It's more than lyrics—pure red-and-white loyalty, weather be damned.

Fan Chatter & Variations

Forums buzz with pride: "Chills every time," says one Gooner on Facebook.

Some 2026 takes add player nods (Saka! Havertz!), but the Dunford core rules.

"North London forever... my blood will forever run through the stone." Pure poetry for the maroon walls.

TL;DR: "North London Forever" chorus is the pre-kick-off heart—timeless Gunners glue.
