masterful.

Incidentally, special mention should go to the original David James, the one who played for Modern Romance.

The Shamen weren't exactly one-hit wonders, but when I saw this video on Popjustice, I thought of this thread. It's Ebeneezer Goode with the lyrics changed to "Engerland, Engerland, we love you Engerland". (And, of course, "Has anyone got any Vieiras?")

― davidsim (davidsim), Friday, 9 June 2006 02:19 (nineteen years ago)

i saw that this morning. it's actually not that bad. they've had to change a lot of the lyrics but done it relatively well/amusingly.

― Konal Doddz (blueski), Friday, 9 June 2006 08:39 (nineteen years ago)

should've been 'anybody got any Shearers' tho
