Phi Mu Songs

[RoseNWhiteLion]

Oooh, that John Denver song reminded me...We added two "real" songs to our Pref my senior year....One was from Hope Floats called "To Get Me to You" by Lila McCann and it was SOOOO beautiful.

Well I, I still can remember times
When the night seemed to surround me
I was sure the sun would never shine on me
And I, I thought it my destiny
To walk this world alone
But now you're here with me
Now you're here with me

And I don't regret the rain
Or the nights I felt the pain
Or the tears I had to cry
Some of those times along the way
Every road I had to take
Every time my heart would break
It was just something that I had to get through
To get me to you
To get me to you

Well I, I still can recall the days
When I had no love around me
Makes me glad for every day I have with you
And I, I look in your eyes and know
I'm right where I belong
And I belong with you
Always belonged with you

And I don't regret the rain
Or the nights I felt the pain
Or the tears I had to cry
Some of those times along the way
Every road I had to take
Every time my heart would break
It was just something that I had to go through
To get me to you
To get me to you

And if I could I wouldn't change a thing
Wouldn't change a thing baby
Because your love was waiting there for me
Waiting there for me baby

And I don't regret the rain
Or the nights I felt the pain
Or the tears I had to cry
Some of those times along the way
Every road I had to take
Every time my heart would break
It was just something that I had to get through
To get me to you
To get me to you

This song makes me cry, because it really hits the nail on the head for our chapter for how much we have to work to stay afloat, but it's all worth it in the end.

And the other one we added was by a contemporary Christian singer....Geoff Moore and the Distance. Sorry, had a brain fart there. And it's called If You Could See What I See. There were only 2 references to G-d in it, but those can easily be tweaked to say Phi Mu or "my sisters" or something.

All of my life I have dreamed that somehow love would find me.
Now I can't believe you're stan-ding here.
If beauty is all in the eye of the beholder then I
wish you could see the love for you that lives in me.

And you would know you have my heart,
If you could see what I see;
That a trea-sure's what you are, if you could see what I see;
Created to be the only one for me;
If you could see what I see

I know there are days when you feel so much less than ideal
Wondering what I see in you
It's all of the light and the grace
Your belief in me drives me to say
That I promise you a faithful love forever true

And you would know you have my heart,
If you could see what I see;
That a treasure's what you are, if you could see what I see;
Created to be the only one for me;
If you could see what I see

Then you'd understand why I fall down to my knees;
And I pray my love will be worthy of
The One who gave His life so our love could be.

And you would know you have my heart,
If you could see what I see;
That a treasure's what you are,
If you could see what I see;
You're created to be the perfect one for me
If you could see what I see

If beauty is all in the eye of the beholder then I
Am beholding true beauty.

Sorry, I was just reminded of those songs and wanted to share.

That sounds like a really sweet song... although I'm curious as to why you feel the need to censor the word God... lol

[VSUPhiMu]

I always loved doing our chant. We do it right after initiation when it's dark, and it scares the mess out of the new Sisters. We start with our fists in the air and bring them down at the end of "AHHHHH!" Here it is:

AHHHHHHHHH!
We're the best
That's no lie
We'll be Sisters 'till we die
Forget the rest
Try the best
PHI MU!!
HELL YEAH!!

(Fist up on "Phi" down on "Mu", same with "Hell Yeah")

I just always have loved that! And I also love Linger and the Sister song our chapter uses.

[RoseNWhiteLion]

Censored a) to make it be about Phi Mu b) becasue we didn't want to have a religious slant to it.

[HotDamnImAPhiMu]

we all need to hang out at convention and chant until our heads fall off.


I like to chant.

[phimuandfries]

From what ive read we've combined two of the chants on here...
AHHHHHHHHH!
We're the best
That's no lie
We'll be Sisters 'till we die
Forget the rest
Join the best
Kappa Pi
5,4,3,2
Give a cheer for Phi Mu
P-H-I P-H-I
P-H-I M-U
Phhhiiiii Mu
Ohhhhh Yeah (hell yeah if we are feeling fiesty)

i was wondering, and I hope this isn't like confidential info about recruitment, but what kind of songs do yall sing for skit night.... if yall sing at all that is.....

[HotDamnImAPhiMu]

it's not confidential. My understanding is pretty much nothing until pref night is confidential -- and even that isn't strictly so, because after all, you are sharing it with women who are not pledged to Phi Mu.

all the same, we don't seem to discuss pref night specifics on this board, by some sort of mutual unspoken agreement.

[HotDamnImAPhiMu]

ha. And to actually answer the question...

my collegiate chapter doesn't have skit night. The five sororities on campus (ASA, Tri Sigma, AGD, Phi Sigma Sigma, and us) are DRASTICALLY different.

ASA has the only house.

Tri Sig and Phi Mu vie for most girls each year (until the last 2 yrs Tri Sig had 'em; the last two we've had 'em.)

AGD is smack in the middle on basically everything.

Phi Sigma Sigma was down to 4 girls at one point.

Anyway, point being, in the interest of making things more "fair," panhellenic canceled any use of skits, dropped the monetary cap to something incredibly low, and limited the use of chants, since the smaller groups aren't as impressive in the volume department.

[06DBPhiMu]

Our rush chair came up with a new chant this year. It goes:

We're goin' down down baby
down down to phi mu
boom boom baby
thats where we're going to
p-h-i-mu where the sisterhood is true
p-h-i-mu you're gonna love it too!

We also did baby got back as one of our open house songs and the PNMS LOVED IT!

Also, Linger goes:

Mm mm I want to linger
Mm mm a little longer
Mm mm a little longer here with you

Mm mm it's been a perfect night
Mm mm it doesn't seem quite right
Mm mm that we should have to bid adieu

Mm mm But if you go Phi Mu
Mm mm you'll be our sister too
Mm mm and join our bond so strong and true

Mm mm and as the years go by
Mm mm we'll all look back and sigh
Mm mm it was goodnight and not goodbye
