Vindalooooooooooo,Vindalooooooooooo oh we all love Vindalooooooo,where gonna score one more than you ,ENGLAND!!!!!!!
Love them both but reckon World In Motion is better. If it's Football songs in general Nesun Dorma takes some beating. Opera isn't my thing but that is a tune.
3 lions for me just captures what is needed as a football song. World in motion is a better piece of music out of a football context but doesnt get the same football effect for me
I'm not sure Nessun Dorma counts as a football song strictly speaking but it never fails to give me goosebumps
When New Order were doing the video and recording of it and asked the England players along hardly any turned up as they though it was just anonther gimmicky football song. John Barnes Peter Beardsley Gazza Steve McMahon Chris Waddle Des Walker Were the 6 i believe.
This. It's quintessentially English as well, with the optimism framed in the context of our history of failure. It's not "we're the best, we're going to win" it's "we probably won't win, but **** it, it's good to dream"
Im certain it doesnt just nicked a great piece of music and its still a great piece when used in a different context
My thoughts already summed up by a couple of others. World in Motion is a much better song. Three Lions is just a absolute brilliant chorus perfect for grounds and boozers.
