For me

1. World in Motion (which number one exatcly 20 years ago today)
2. Three Lions 1996
3. All The Way

I probably would put Three Lions 98 up there, but I cant forgive it for knocking B*Witched - Cest La Vie off the top spot

 

[Badger]

Three Lions 1996

It was a toss up between that and World in Motion but I was only 6 when that came out and it doesn't hold quite such significance to me.

 

[New Carpet?]

World In Motion gets the nod ahead of the original Three Lions, and Back Home, which I'm way too young to remember but still have a soft spot for.

 

[surrey jim]

World in motion, Three lions and Vindaloo

Another classic was the song, Sven, Sven, Sven

 

[Rookie]

Argh picked the wrong one should have been world in motion.

 

[User removed 4]

1)3 lions 98
2)this time
3)world in motion

 

[The Modfather]

Of the ones listed, World in motion for me.

Englands Irie is better than all those listed though.

 

[Old Hadlothian]

1982 - This Time, more than any other time, this time - getting it all together, to bring it home... or something like that.... Quality.
My first memory of owning a single, red vinyl 7", fan bloody tastic
Hear the roar, of the red white & blue.........

 

[gjh1971]

Three Lions and Jerusalem were songs for the Euros, not the World Cup

 

[upthealbion1970]

1 vindaloo
2 original 3 lions
3 escape to victory (ok, not an "official" song but still a massive anthem)

 

[User removed 4]

13 escape to victory (ok, not an "official" song but still a massive anthem)

do you mean the great escape ?

 

[upthealbion1970]

do you mean the great escape ?

yes i do

 

[Mendoza]

Three Lions and Jerusalem were songs for the Euros, not the World Cup

i did notice that, but it was too late for me to change it, anyway, most people get the jist

 

[Brightonfan1983]

1996, Three Lions - always makes my skin prickle, what an exciting summer that was. Can't find the original video though, anyone?

 

[Adopted Brightonian]

Three Lions for me, either the 1996 one of 1998 will do, but i'll go for 1996 as it's the original.
New one is TERRIBLE. Had to turn it off after 30 seconds to prevent it destroying the song for me.

 

[Gwylan]

World Cup Willie for me. I can still remember the words 44 years later (which is more than I can say about most of the others) and it's obviously associated with winning the cup - that would make it a winner regardless of the quality of the song

 

[Perkino]

What about 'Golden Balls'

 

[happypig]

World in Motion, closely followed by the original Three Lions
or the other way round, I just cannt decide

 

[Jesus Gul]

Farley and Heller Carabinieri mix of World in Motion - got the 12" somewhere...gold cover
