Originally recorded for the 1998 FIFA World Cup in France, this instrumental piece of infectious musical mastery is something that can’t be ignored. It went on to become one of the best recognised footballing anthems and is loved around the world. It also reached a chart peak in the UK of #5.

April 22nd - A song you like with a capital city in the title

There's a few songs I could have gone for today (including one with TWO capital cities in the title, I wonder if anyone will pick that one!) but I've gone for this little-known gem from the 90s.

 

Day 22:

 

A highlight from one of my all-time favourite albums, Laundry Service, this was a single in many Spanish speaking territories, and therefore has a music video.

 

April 22nd - A song you like with a capital city in the title

 

 

So many to choose from. Trying to avoid cities already used I nearly went for Joy Division's Warsaw, Nitzer Ebb's Warsaw Ghetto and The Fall's Victoria, but since this has been ignored...
