Football Songs

Post by LowlifeDes » 3 years ago

I just heard Fat Les' Vinderloo for the first time in a while. I now can't decide whether it is moronic, tongue in cheek moronic, or a tribute to Dadaism.

I moved here in 99. I have never heard this before (that I recall).

I stared slack-jawed at the video. I don't know what I have just watched.

99?

Are you not familiar with "World in Motion" then, featuring John Barnes' rap and Chris Waddle's mullet?



Also featuring Keith Allen BTW, of Vindaloo fame.

I don't know anything about football songs, but I do rather prefer the current longer-length shorts, much more flattering.

Um, no. Google says it was released in 1990. I don't remember hearing it then, though honestly I doubt I would remember it. Apparently it got to 21 on the charts, so it's likely I heard it.

For those who disagree, there are alternative ways of wearing them...

I'm kinda nostalgic for short shorts.
