"We're all in this together with that english famous weather"

I'm sorry but that song is sh*t- really pathetic rhymes and took zero imagination to come up with the chorus and the beat- no mention of any players either meaning its not really a song about the euros, just about the country.

1/10 from me.

Edit: 2 things:

1. why is it called 4 lions?
2. Since when did the English flag have blue on it?
 


Not knowing anything at all about music or musicians, or any sort of celebrity for that matter I have a question.

Who is the Lurch looking fella doing a zombie impression?

Other than that, I quite like it.

Bez from the Happy Mondays and Black Grape.

It's alright but not massively special in my opinion

Would be borderline impossible to sing along with on the terraces and for that reason I am still in the 3 Lions camp

1. Dunno but seeing as we have lions on our shirts the connection will be around that.
2. England have played in red, white and also blue strips in their time and various combinations thereof.

You're really not happy about this tune, are you?

The song's Ok but the video is sh1te. Wayne Rooney earns more whilst farting than the entire budget for that mess.

It's not a bad effort at all and a few other cameos pop up (Goldie) but what the f*ck is Irvine Welsh doing there?

"We're England 'til we die, until we die, until we die" - I can get behind that.

Love that. Bez is a ****ing HERO isn't he.

I don't normally go with this style of music but I thought it rather good.

Not for me mate.

Genuine question, is there an official one?

Makes a good happy Monday's tune not sure about euro song.

Well I won't pick holes in the fact it's a Black Grape song and not a Mondays one but prey tell.......what does make a good Euro Song or football one for that matter?

World in Motion and errrrrmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. Well that is it.

Fair enough! In answer to your question, I don't know. A quick google reveals that Stormzy was in the running to record it but nothing seems to have been released. Alas, I've not got a scoobie who Stormzy is either, I've never heard of him/her.


Edit - if you want a truly awful Euro song then look no further than Davud Guetta with what I think is the official Euro tune. It's an abhomination.
