Loved it.  30 years ago yesterday and today had it, Michael Carwood's Euro 88 and other football anthems blaring on the car stereo during the long drive north from Cefalu.

Cheers for the share lads...

Its a brilliant song. I've tried to DJ it with the Billy Joel Original, exact same structure and length. Tempo is only slightly different, very easy to match and flick between tracks. Some effort with the lyrics

I was gong to to their reunion gig this year. They're meant to have been a a brilliant band and their venison of bohemian rhapsody was meant to be well worth hearing

The strangest part of this is, despite the clear similarities to the video I made for this song, I had no idea this video existed until today.  And f**k me, its been 15 years since I made that video (tets even supplied the Ronnie Whelan Sr photo -- and they used the same footage it would seem).

The very last line is a change to the chorus as the song plays out with the chorus on repeat, but they change the last line to '' We'll win the Sam Maguire''

A few changes

Dasaev, Socrates,
Maradona, Ardiles,
Puskas, Bessonov,
Rene Ver Der Kerkof,
Hamilton, Jim Magee,
Saint And Greavsie on TV,
Maradona Hand of God
Brady should be in the Squad

Chris Morris, score draw
Don Givens, Denis Law,
Eusebio Jr, Ronnie Whelan Senior
Pele #10
We'll never see his like again
Gorbache is Mean
Champions, Argentina

should be

I think - Maracanã Ardiles 

and

Goicoechea's meaner     (those of us old enough will remember THAT tackle on Maradona)
Champions Argentina

also Junior as in the player rather than Eusebio Jr.

Still have the tape somewhere and had it blasting out driving around Italy.
