Hit it
Anyone else bothered by the Angels' radio jingle? Sounds like they're appealing to 6-year-old carnival goers. Grow up, for crying out loud. Here's an idea: Buy the rights to the NBA on NBC theme song from John Tesh. Now there's a modern melody.

I believe that jingle
is the Angels fight song, penned by none other than Gene Autry

OK....
According to Yetijuice, it wasn’t penned by Autry.
But, for your viewing pleasure, here they are again….
California Angels “A-OK”
(Official fight song of the California Angels)
Lyrics by Shirley and Dick Winslow
Music by Dick Winslow (ASCAP)
California Angels A OK!!
California Angels all the way!!
Hear them shout that you’re the best
Clear throughout “The Golden West”
Watch `em play night and day. Keep the crowds in the clouds.
California Angels win that game!!
California Angels win that fame!!
Ev’rybody blow your horn! With a halo we adorn the California Angels Team.
Short or tall; large or small; Welcome any time!
Have a ball one and all, come to Anaheim!!
Cheer!! Cheer!! Let them know we’re here!!
California Angels A OK!!
Hear them shout that you’re the best
Clear throughout “The Golden West”
Watch `em play night and day. Keep the crowds in the clouds.
California Angels win that game!!
California Angels win that fame!!
Ev’rybody blow your horn! With a halo we adorn the California Angels Team.

It was a 45
The FIGHT SONG was a single on vinyl and the B-Side actually has a crowd singing that song along ot the fight song music.
