This song, I think, captures the true feeling of what it means to be a real Cubs fan in Chicago. More so than "Go Cubs Go," more so than "Hey Hey, Holy Mackerel," and more than any other Cubs song I have heard. As the story goes, this song was written as a birthday present to Ernie Banks, but to everyone who has ever thought of Wrigley Field as their church, this ong is really to all of us!

it's not "fall weather" fans...it's FOUL weather fans. As in, even though they've stunk up the joint plenty of times, we've never lost hope.
Here's to the day when I'm crying and covered in beer.

Die hard Cub fan and Pearl Jam fan. This song is the reason why I love the both of them. Eddie puts together the storied tradition of this great franchise and he sings what will one day happen! Let's hope this year is finally the year! Go Cubs

It's a "world full of green" not a "world full of greed." At least I'm pretty sure.

I downloaded the song and googled the lyrics and this is sentimental and cliched. Kind of boring, actually. Ernie Banks is a class act. He deserved to win a title. I ave a feeling the 2008 Cubs will find a creative way to fail.

This the best Cubs anthem I've ever heard! I cannot wait for the clinching game of the world series when the words can be changed to "Today we went all the way!" WHENEVER IT HAPPENS! Go Cubbies

The saddest thing here is that it takes the cubs to be doing well before this song gets any acknowledgement. I heard this over a year ago. What about "fair weather"?

I wanted to point out to poster #15 that although Eddie Vedder has been performing this song live for over a year, a recording of this song was not released until September 18, 2008, 6 days before your post. You think maybe that's why the song didn't get any acknowledgement until quite recently?

Might it be "Foul" weather fans?
