Which chants and/or songs STILL come to mind?

I've noticed when people tell their recruitment stories, they mention that the chant by ABC or the song at XYZ still sticks with them to this day. So...

Which song or chant from a group you didn't join still comes to mind and brings a smile?

I don't remember all the words but the end is "I love the crescent moon shining in the sky... Gamma Phi Beta, Gamma Phi Beta, Gamma Phi Beta, Gamma Phi Beta..." It still sticks forever!

My friends mom was an AXO at UCSB, and when I told her I'm a Kappa, she started singining "Oh, Kappa Kappa Kappa Gamma!" Ha! I realize that's a different song but...anyway!

I remember two Chi O songs: "Style, pep, that's what you get, when you go Chi O, you get style and pep" and this one chant that was in two groups--it was super cute with hand motions and it was like CHI O, RED HOT, CHI O, RED HOT. They were so loud, and so in sync, that they seemed really put together and coordinated.

I also remember an AST song. It takes most of the words to a Pussycat Dolls song and changes the lyric to "Don't you wish your girlfriend was AST, dontcha?"

My chapter sings a song that a chapter sister wrote--we always sing it in a round. Saiiiilboats, purple and white, we have seen our violet light, pearls and girls and memorieeeees, we are Sigma Three. My little even made it into a midi ringtone.

Yes! I remember that Kappa song... especially that last part... "K-A-P-P-A, K-A-P-P-A, G-A-M-M-A, Kappa Kappa Gamma Hey!!"

Some other ones that still get stuck in my head...

"Come on in, join the fun, meet the Alpha Gams each one,
friendship, fun, loyalty, we're the girls of AGD,
OhyesI'msogladI'manAlphaGam,
OhyesI'msogladI'manAlphaGam,
OhyesI'msogladI'manAlphaGam,
It's AGD for me!"

That's the only whole one I picked up on my own cause it was so repetitive lol

Then I heard this one in recruitment but learned it cause my friend is sang it all the time...

"Pi Pi Beta Phi
P-I P-H-i Pi Phi
Me for Pi for Beta Phi
I just love Pi Beta Phi"

And there was this Tridelt one that ended like...

"Go D-E-L-T-A, D-E-L-T-A, D-E-L-T-A,
Go Tridelta, whattaya say?"

I also remember that the Chi-Os at my school did the Coca Cola song... I dont remember the words except "Always Chi Omega!"

And then Theta had this cheer that I would always hear in the hallways of my dorm... whenever actives came to pick up new members for like their first social or pledge mom night or some big event they came up to their door chanting...

"K!!!-A-P-P-A
A!!!-L-P-H-A
T!!!-H-E-T-A
KAPPA ALPHA THETA HEY!"

I love hearing all the different chants different chapters have!

I am an S-I-G Sig, M-A, Sigma,
K-A-P, Kap, P-A, Kappa,
S-I-G, Sig, M-A, Sigma K.

I probably remember that one because it was freakin' hard to learn.

Theta did that on our campus.

The sun will always shine, the birds will always sing.
Wherever there is Theta there's always the real thing.
Kappa Alpha Theta is always the one.
So when you think of fun, always think of Theta.

K (Emphasis on the K!) A -P-P-A!
A!!! L-P-H-A
T!!! H-E-T-A
KAPPA alpha theta
kappa ALPHA theta
kappa alpha THETA!!!!

There was clapping throughout the chant!!!

We have a kind of similar one, too...

K!! A-P-P-A!
Kappa! That's what we say!
S!! U-P-E-R!
Super! That's what we are!


Cheesy, I know . We used it during intramurals and such. It would work with T!! H-E-T-A! too!

the only chant I remember is from Tri Sigma and it goes:

"S, S, S-I-G
G, G, G-M-A
S-I-G
G-M-A
SIGMA SIGMA SIGMA, HEY!"

and the song I remember is from Alpha Xi:

"Alpha Xi Delta is our cry
come inside and we'll tell you why
(Alpha Xi) Those Alpha Xi's are the best
(Alpha Xi) the best of all the rest
(Alpha Xi) Those Alpha Xi's are the best
(Alpha Xi) the best of all the rest
Alpha Xi, Alpha Xi, Alpha Xi Delta!"

OH MY GOD

I remember when I worked in the Student Union at my school I was put in charge of helping the sororities with heavy lifting and some of the basic cleaning they had to do for recruitment.

I sat outside the whole day and listened to their recruitment songs and this one by far is the most infectious. It stays with you for weeks.

I heard a slightly different version though

It was

Come on in, join the fun
Meet the Alpha Gamms each one
Parties, friends, loyalty
Meet the girls of AGD

uh-huh, soglad immanalphagamm
uh-huh, soglad immanalphagamm

I sat out there for so long I perfectly memorized all of their songs. I was at a Student Government event with an AGD later on and she was stunned when I was able to sing the whole thing to her.
