Embrace's 'World At Your Feet', the official song for England's World Cup campaign, isn't the bookies' favourite footie-themed effort to climb the charts this summer.

With World Cup kick off still weeks away, William Hill have published their odds for this summer's runners in the novelty record stakes. Leading the field at evens is 'Who Do You Think You're Kidding Jurgen Klinsman' by The Tonedef All Stars. No, we've no idea either.

Embrace's dreary indie effort is currently at 7/4, with 'We're England' by the TalkSPORT ALLSTARS at 9/2. Poor ol' Crazy Frog's version of 'We Are The Champions', DiS's pick of the World Cup pops a few weeks back (for some reason... methinks words need to be had), is currently at 33/1.

These odds are for achieving the highest chart position, not for making number one. England's makeshift team kick off against Paraguay on June 10th.


Yay! It's The World Cup!

That one time in four years when we all get up and sing our drunken hearts out to cheesey crap. And it's the only time in my life when I actually enjoy said activity. 'Tis the magic of footie, or something.


i thought

that time was christmas?

but, never mind that, YAY! it's the world's cub!


hang on

Embrace likely to be beaten by Tonedef group? So, is that "tonedeafs beaten by Tonedef"?


hahaha!

I hadnt even thought of that.

shame on me.


Heard Fat Les' most recent efforts

in the form of hymn Jerusalem.

It's wicked. Only because that hymn is wicked.

I hate Keith Twatface.


poor old Embrace

they want only to be loved.


ssshhh

but i used to love embrace.

I was listening to the good will out at the weekend, and i still really like it.


the best world cup song is

the one written by Al Murray the Pub Landlord comedian bloke, its funny! check it out on his website


Wasn't that used for Euro 2000 or something?


Who Do You Think You Are Kidding Jurgen Klinsmann

is the Sun's official World Cup song. Good to know they're not perpetuating any imagery of the English as being unable to get past the idea that plenty's happened since WWII.


KOOPA
