{mosimage}There's a great roundup here of various World Cup songs from around the planet.
There is actually a brilliant one there — it's The Shamen's 'Ebeneezer Goode' with its chorus re-recorded to include the line "ENGERLAND! ENGERLAND! WE LOVE YOU ENGERLAND!" and "a not-so-great referree once said: 'Naughty, Rooney, very naughty'". We think this has something to do with one of the people in the 'World Cup' football competition.
You can watch it here, and while it is at its very heart a load of old shit we at least made it to the end.
The same cannot be said for:
* A sort of Pet Shop Boys pastiche (pictured) called 'We Can Win It' (here).
* Something absolutely unlistenable called 'Champion Diss' (here).
* 'Let It Be' with the chorus "Wayne Rooney, Wayne Rooney" (here).
* A sort of minimalist techno entry from Austria (here).
* A 'Hi-Ho Silver Lining' reswizzle sung by a puppet with the lametastic chorus "Hi ho come on England" (here).
* The Joe Fagin effort 'That's England Alright' which we actually quite like (here).
* Something terrible called '6 Billion Euro Football Man' which is literally the worst thing we've ever seen and/or heard (here).
It's coming to something when the best you can say about something is 'at least it's nothing to do with Mike Read'. :(
