Best England pre-tournament song?

[RonnieTodger]

Come on then.

 

3 horse race surely. Not including any shite like James Corden or Spice Girls.

Three Lions for me. Guilty pleasure is ant and dec though

[davieG]

There's a football fellow
You all know his name
And the papers tell us he's in the Hall of Fame
Wherever he goes
He'll be all the rage
Cause he's the new sensation of the age

CHORUS
Dressed in red white and blue
He's World Cup Willie
We all love him too
World Cup Willie
He's tough as a lion and never will give up
That's why Willie is favourite for the Cup
Willie, Willie
He's everybody's favourite for the Cup

Well we're all football crazy
And it's plain to see
That we're all so happy like one big family
Now we've found someone
Who makes the rafters ring
Welcome to a brand new soccer King

CHORUS

 

All the fans are waiting
How they'll spur him on
And those sixty nations will soon know Willie's song
Wherever he goes
He'll be all the rage
Cause he's the new sensation of the age

CHORUS

One more time
Willie, Willie
He's everybody's favourite for the Cup

[The Horse's Mouth]

tough one, but World in Motion just edges it. Think Barnes seals it, with three lions in a very narrow second. We're on the Ball in third, 

[Voll Blau]

Three Lions '98 was the first single I ever bought, and I loved the '96 version too, but it's got to be World in Motion for me.

 

Plus I know the whole rap off by heart.

I was listening to world in motion just last night! As a piece of music it's definitely the best in this list although you could definitely make the argument that three lions made the biggest impact with fans. Vindaloo was a good laugh. I didnt even realise all together now was a football song?! 

[TheUltimateWinner]

Three lions all the way 

[stripeyfox]

1. World In Motion

 

 

 

 

 

 

2. Three Lions

3. Vindaloo

 

 

[urban.spaceman]

You missed this.

 

 

[urban.spaceman]

And this.

 

 

[urban.spaceman]

This too.

Personally I think it's shit, but it was the official England Euro 2004 song.

World in motion is the better song, but Three Lions is a proper anthem

If Barnes wasn't in World in Motion it wouldn't be what it is.

 

He makes that song.

Personally think that, despite it not being a contender, Shout by James Corden and Dizzee Rascal deserves a mention.
