Tonight Dance With The Devils

La Belgique - The Red Devils
best supporters' song so far


Also very popular with Belgian supporters:



"Its emergence as a popular sporting anthem started when, on October 22nd, 2003 supporters of Club Brugge KV overheard the song being played in a bar in Milan, while preparing to attend a UEFA Champions League group match against AC Milan and began to sing along. After a 0-1 upset win, the fans brought the song with them to Belgium, where Brugge began playing it in Jan Breydel Stadium during matches." - source wikipedia
