Official World cup song.

Won't mind hearing that and an England song that knows how to pronounce England.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rebr9ueiB7Y

Will the wait be over?

Not the greatest lyrics but Giants Stadium, June 18, 1994... hard to beat ole-ole-ole-ole... olayyyy! oolayyyy...  ole-ole-ole-ole... olayyyy! oolayyyy... ole-ole-ole-ole... olayyyy! oolayyyy...  ole-ole-ole-ole... olayyyy! oolayyyy...
and that old classic.. Oh! Ah! Paul McGrath...say Oh! Ah! Paul McGrath...

Maybe you needed to be there  8)   

New Order's World In Motion is a classic.

Christ I cringe when I hear that olay shite.  A gaelic team over here started chanting it when they won the championship last year.  Nearly boked.  You should be castrated for singing that shite.

Excellent,I wasn't in Giants Stadium but I'll never forget the day I was in Lansdowne when they beat the Dutch 1-0...
Ole Ole Ole was never sung as good as it was after that match...

what a sh1te song... and with all the beautiful african choirs and music ya think they could have came up with something better...

Always enjoyed this Scots one from the 80s

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1N95aeSLtA4

Anyone remember the Dutch song from either Euro 88 or WC 90 - it was to the tune of Danny Boy.

Scots had a few good songs, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W9Lf6P_zPO4

A world cup song that gets people dancing http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H2W4RimGZG0

Wasn't for the World Cup, but the Lightning Seeds song with the fantasy football boys was a great song back in '96.

Was indeed didn't they do a remake for the world cup? Germans used the song as a taunt :D

In a crowd of 80,000 mostly Irish singnig that at the Giants stadium and Ireland beating Italy 1-0 in the World Cup, I think even a miserable bollocks like you Aerlik would have joined in. 

Aerlik is right. That "Ole ole" shite is awful.

+1 on World in Motion...despite the Engerland shite it's a good tune by a proper band..

I know but in context of that occasion in the Giants Stadium it was mighty. Did you not think so? or as the Vietnem vet said, "You don't know what it was like because you weren't there man... you weren't there!"

Calling it a song is doing it some justice. It's a national disgrace :)

There is a good article about it in this months FourFourTwo magazine.

"Ole Ole Ole" is a stain on the Irish nation.

I think with the nation's problems of the bankers, politicians, drug pushers and priest paedophiles scandals, ole-ole is well down the stain list  ::) 

How about Ireland's anthem for the 1987 Rugby World Cup in New Zealand?

The Rose Of Tralee

"The pale moon was riiiiiiising above the green mountain..................."

Still better than Ireland's Call  :D

I was there and it is a shite song... a great day though that I will never forget despite Ole Ole Ole, the performance of Paul Mc Grath is what I remember most from that day.

The greatest performance by any Irish player in international competition that I've seen.

(In any sport?)  I don't know if I'd go that far but he was magnificent that day... he even managed to make Phil Babb look like an international player.

6/7 Concerts per year & for the Record been to Aslan once & no ole ole for them

Joxer goes to Stuttgard by Christy Moore (the uncensored version) is the best soccer song of all time!! (Ok I know it was a Euro Championship but the song is class). Every English World cup song is crap.
