Victory March (fight song)

"Victory March" is the fight song for the University of Notre Dame. The Rev. Michael J. Shea, a 1905 Notre Dame graduate, wrote the music, and his brother, John F. Shea, who earned degrees from Notre Dame in 1906 and 1908, wrote the original lyrics. The lyrics were revised in the 1920s; Victory March first appeared under the copyright of the University of Notre Dame in 1928.

The chorus of the song is the most recognizable collegiate fight song in the world and was ranked first among fight songs by Northern Illinois University Professor William Studwell, who remarked it was "more borrowed, more famous and, frankly, you just hear it more."

Since 1961, the Sydney Swans, a team in the Australian Football League (AFL), has used the melody of "Victory March" for their club song, which begins "Cheer, cheer the red and the white / honour the name by day and by night".
