Music to inspire England in the Ashes
By Will last year, mid-June, 5 Comments »
I’ve recently become a bit of a fan of Spotify, the peer-to-peer music-streaming service which rules all. Even more recently, I see you can create and share playlists, which lends itself perfectly to me to ask you the following: what music can or should inspire England in the Ashes?
Spotify users, create and share a playlist with songs you think might rally the troops this summer. Non-spotties, offer yours below. Suggestions should ideally be English, without wishing to sound like that turbo-powered racist arsehole, Nick Griffin.
I think Elgar needs to be included at least once, possibly as a replacement to the drone of the UK’s national anthem. If we’re talking about the national anthem, and it appears I am, I’m all for Billy Connolly’s suggestion – a comedian and character I would happily forsake two limbs to pick his brains – that it should be replaced by the theme tune to the Archers. And that’s saying something, considering I’ve often veered off the road in sheer depression when inadvertently listening to a programme containing a character called Shula. Cracking theme tune though.
So, Elgar, the Kinks, something from the Rolling Stones, or the Stone Roses and…?
