Its not a sing along in the stands type song, more of a listen to in the car whilst driving type tune.

Nice enough song, just not right for a football song imho.

People want the likes of 3 lions, or fat les's vindaloo, the kind you can bounce up and down to whilst very drunk.

I must admit i think it's a grower, i have found myself humming it all morning but at the same time i just can't imagine standing in the pub singing it!
They'll be an unofficial one that someone will do and it'll catch on!

COME ON ENGLAND!!!

I like embrace and i like the song. I just dont think it is really a world cup theme song.

IMO three lions will never be beaten. I will download it for the summer again as i have done for the past 3 tournaments and delete it by the semi finals as england crash out ! :lol:

I expect you all to rush out and buy the unofficial song which I am singing on. It is being released in May but can't tell you anymore details as it still being keep under wraps at the mo.

It was recorded in the studios where Charlotte Church did some of her first recordings and she may have the voice of an angel but I have the voice of a ????????????????????????. :wink: :lol:

A picture showing the recording of my debut single!!! :wink:
