The Parisian supporters had put this down to an error or a parenthesis related to the presentation of Lionel Messi.
On August 14, the frenzied rhythms of "
Who Said I Would
" did not accompany, as usual, the entry of PSG players on the lawn of the Parc des Princes on the occasion of the match against Strasbourg.
Instead, the Park's speakers played a song by DJ Snake.
Fans attached to the Phil Collins track, which has become one of the club's symbols for almost thirty years, will have to get used to it and may not hear it either this Saturday afternoon for the 2nd game of the season against Clermont (5 p.m.).

"
It was not at all a mistake
", explains in the columns of Parisian Fabien Allègre, director of diversification of the club.
“
That we are very attached to this sound, I hear it and our will is not to eliminate it from all our games.
But why couldn't we have the “Go West” (from the Pet Shop Boys) or the Phil Collins when the players arrive for the warm-up?
I had a lot of very positive feedback from people who rather appreciated the song (by DJ Snake)
", continues the leader of the PSG, specifying that there had been"
a real consultation on the subject
"with several supporters, including representatives of the Collective Ultras Paris (CUP).
At the end of 2015, the song "
Who Said I Would
" was replaced by the song of supporters "
Ô Ville Lumière
" as part of a tribute to the victims of the attacks of November 13. The change had lasted for several weeks before the club chose to hand over the Phil Collins record.
