Although it is not officially the club anthem, "''Marching On Together''" is played before every home game and unlike many football songs that are just new words set to existing music, it is an original composition, purposely written for Leeds United. The song "''Strings for Yasmin''" by [[Tin Tin Out]] is also played before kick off at Elland Road, whilst "''Nightmare''" by [[Brainbug]] is played before the start of the second half.
