World In Motion or 3 Lions?

Anyone saying Three Lions needs to sign a register and probably needs counselling.
Meh, wasn't into football when it was released, and when first hearing it it doesn't immediately sound like an England song, could be singing about owt until the "England man" bit in the John Barnes rap. Three Lions all the way, 96 version, then 98 version, then maybe world in motion due to lack of other competition
 
Three lions for me. Probably a lot is down to age mind. I was 5 when world in motion was released and not really arsed about football. USA 94 is the first tournament I remember, and obviously we weren't there. As such 96, at an age when I loved football, first tournament I'd taken interest in with England there, three lions playing and being sang all the time, us getting to the semi finals, its all part of the nostalgia
Like i said it had more of an affect on the country on a while..country was buzzing. Saturday night down town after we beat Spain on pens was one of the best nights ever! Nobody was sober!😅
 
Despise World in Motion. Can't switch it off quickly enough.

I love Regret by New Order which used to be used on football shows in the 90s.
 
Maybe depends on your age?

I'm 52 and remember WIM and the Italia 90 summer as a great time as a care-free 21 year old. Was the first time ever a footy anthem was actually 'cool' too.

Three Lions chorus is good for a crowd chant, but the rest of the song is awful !
