It just said on Channel4 news that the band Embrace are to write the World Cup song for England.
What does everyone think about it?
Aren't their songs quite depressing?
To be honest i'm not a fan of their new stuff but their old stuff was absolute quality.
But hey, it could be worse.........far worse actually.

Yeah, they're quite boring, but I hope they do something like "Ashes" for the WC. That song is more uplifting.

I think instead of wanting to get motavated by listening to an England song, I would want to cry and hug my Mum if Embarass did it
It's called 'World At Your Feet' or something.

Defoe could do the rap. He sounds like Dizzee Rascal.
This woman on Channel4 news was saying the song will be anthemic, uplifting and bring people together. Then the new host guy says: "We'll see" :laugh:
What a joker.
EDIT:
Jermaine Defoe, innit!
Snap! :D

You dont want an uplifting song! You want a 'go kick some Tobagan arse' song! Blur - Song 2 for example. (Even though it doesnt really have any lyrics)
If it's as good as the track "Save Me" then its got a good chance of being uplifting...Could be worse,they could of chosen the track "Hooligan" :D
I think Arctic Monkeys are workin on one for the CUp

Realy? I hope so. I'm sure they could do something good.
I'm still hoping for a New Order remake. Just change the line "Arrivederci it’s one one one" to Aufwiedersehen its one on one. Job done.

I heard the Embrace song this morning. It's quite boring, but I can see it growing on me.

I can see it growing like an absess that needs to be removed without anesthetic
This Embrace song is wank, but thank God that you can't speak Dutch; our "worldcup songs" make you want to pray for a 1st round knockout/

The best part of it was Moyles speaking over it to say, "It's not too slow, its PERFECT!" when the BBC News were asking people about it and some Farmer-boy said it was too slow.

Hey, at least you guys can do world cup songs. :mellow:

One of the most bizarre choices I've seen.
I'm sorry, but the lead singer Embrace, his face is so annoying. I just have an urge to hit him for some reason.
