Of course, there are some who still want Steve Goodman's "Go Cubs Go" to played at the end even if it does call for the Cubs winning today. One guy called the Tribune "Blasphemus Idiots to consider changing it because it's a Cubs tradition." But what if they've already won. I'm o.k. with a new closing song as long as it is as good as Goodman's (A Chicago favorite son).
The winning song is "Cubs Win" by Jumpsuit, a band that released its first album in 1997 and whose members -- brothers/photographers Nathan and Grant Sutton -- live in various North Side locations. Their horn-fueled celebration revolves around the line "Let's make party" and a chorus that works in some syncopated "Hey-Heys" via Jack Brickhouse, Cubs announcer for many, many years.
I don't know that the Cubs are using the song, however, as I haven't seen the end of any home games yet.
