Who remembers this?
So here we are once more, World Cup time. Heavy police presence, public scenes of drunkness, and very bad singing to ensue. And that's just in my street. I am not really a big footy fan, but big events like this can draw my interest. One thing I really do love in life is music, I am quite an audiophile. And the World Cup brings is tonnes of the stuff. Unfortunately, while the quantity might not be lacking the quality usually is.
Now most footy matches have a musical flavour to them whether one wants to admit it or not. The most common song at your typical national football match in the UK is an old classic called "Here we go". Here are the lyrics...
The official world cup music for this year isn't quite that bad, although that doesn't say much. Picking ones nose with edging shears is not quite that bad, but I digress. Here is the official crap music for World Cup 2010..
But still, as crap as football music is we are going to get loads of it lobbed at us over the next few weeks. Especially if England start to do well.
Does anyone have any favorites or does anyone from any other country want to post their own nations footy music embarrasments?
Ohh, if anyone posts The Spice Girls top of the world thing I will personally chase you round Good Hope, and round the Horn, and round the Norway Maelstrom, and round perdition's flames before I give you up. You will die a horrible death. Except for the Spice Girls, what is the worst and best of the Footy music?

I forget how the second verse goes, but it is actually sung by the crowd (shit is "sung" a real word?). And as such is generally of low quality and thus won't be gracing the catalogue of iTunes any time soon. But sometimes bands and even the footballers themselves get involved in the catastrophe that is football music, and the result can be.... unappealing....
