World Cup 2010 intro music.

[Mad Cyril]

I am hoping to god that the BBC and ITV don't go with any Paul Simon/Ladysmith black whatever rubbish as the into music for their World Cup coverage.

I quite like Africa by Toto but it doesn't really have the right tempo.

Any ideas?

 

[Ulysses]

Free Nelson Mandela by Special AKA

 

[South Bank Hank]

There's a certain Spitting Image song out there which fits the bill.

 

[MrB]

I hope they don't wheel out Something Inside So Strong.

 

[Yorkshire Blue]

There's a certain Spitting Image song out there which fits the bill.

:D:D I'd Keggy Keggle style love it, if ITV chose that as their theme tune

 

[maninasuitcase]

I'd go for the Colourbox World Cup theme.

As long as they don't go for something patronising.

 

[pickledseal]

Some peeps in Chelmsford have done a song haven't they?

 

[They Call It Madness!!!]

Okay, not quite going to be an Intro song to the World Cup but its a Charity Single for Kick 4 Life.

Reason im posting is you might recognise some of the 'stars' in the video!!!

I've travelled this old world of ours from Barnsley to Peru
I've had sunshine in the arctic and a swim in Tinbuktu
I've seen unicorns in Burma and a Yetti in Nepal
And I've danced with ten foot pygmies in a Montezuma hall
I've met the King of China and a working Yorkshire miner
But I've never met a nice South African.

No he's never met a nice South African
And that's not bloody surprising man
'Cause we're a bunch of arrogant b***tards
Who hate black people

I once got served in Woolies aften less than four week's wait
I had lunch with Rowan Atkinson when he paid and wasn't late
I know a public swimming bath where they don't **** in the pool
I know a guy who got a job straight after leaving school
I've met a normal merman and a fairly modest German
But I've never met a nice South African.

No he's never met a nice South African
And that's not bloody surprising man
'Cause we're a bunch of talentless murderers
Who smell like baboons

I've had a close encounter of the twenty-second kind
That's when an alien spaceship disappears up your behind
I got directory enquiries after less than forty rings
I've even heard a decent song by Paul McCartney's Wings
I've seen a flying pig in a quite convincing wig
But I've never met a nice South African.

No he's never met a nice South African
And that's not bloody surprising man
'Cause we're a bunch of ignorant loudmouths
With no sense of humour - ha ha

I've met the Loch Ness monster and he looks like Fred Astaire
At the BBC in London he's the chief commissionaire
I know a place in Glasgow which is rife with daffodillies
I met a man in Katmandu who claimed to have two willies
I've had a nice pot noodle but I've never had a poodle
And I've never met a nice South African.

No he's never met a nice South African
And that's not bloody surprising man
Because we've never met one either
Except for Breyten Breytenbach and he's emigrated to Paris. (farts)

Yes he's quite a nice South African
And he's hardly ever killed anyone
And he's not smelly at all.
That's why they put him prison.
