People think that England fans sing this to be big headed, but the opposite is true. We sing it because we wish for it to come home even though we know it probably won't we've suffered for 50 yrs and still we sing it's coming home
exactly. not as an Englishmen but as a Toronto hockey fan. the parallels between this song and what the toronto maple leafs have been through is insane.
Suffering for 50 years? Be happy your team is atleast qualifying every single year unlike us other people who can’t even watch our country play
I rember when the lionesses won the final 2 yrs ago and some ppl may not say it counts or it’s not the same thing but I’m then that do believe it counts it doesn’t matter what gender they are it still came home with the lionesses
@@limpano1455nah if u know the talent they have 😂
Nearly 30 years later, it still gives me goosebumps! We sing it in pubs, when England play xxx
...60 years of hurt :p
@@GroovingPict touche lol
By far and away the best England football song of all time
"Football's coming home" was derived from the fact that the Euro Championship in 1996 was in England. This was originally released for that competition but has been sung at every tournament since
no, it is derived from the fact that england invented football thus it is the home of football
@trajansmethod2050 you seem to be attempting to correct a completely correct statement by adding another detail...
@@davidbirchall832 the other detail is very fundamental wouldnt you say? you seem to be attemting to correct a statement incorrectly. if it was "completely correct" there wouldnt be "another detail" to add. so i correctly added detail and you spoke for what reason. only you know!
@@trajansmethod2050 it was correct. You added further detail. That is all
"It's coming home" is strictly an England national team phrase, that emerged from this song being release. The reason is that England was the birthplace of football, where the rules were codified in 1863. The only time England won the World Cup was when it was hosted in England in 1966, where we won the Jules Rimet trophy (hence the lyrics). The idea was that the 1996 European Championships, for which this song was released, was hosted by England, so there was a double meaning of the big tournament being hosted there and England actually winning a big trophy again.
What this guy said
Eh no the version that England founded was a Rugby offshoot it was Queens Park from Scotland that introduced the Football that we know off today.
@@paulwilson2651 Queen's Park was founded in 1867, four years after the FA codified the rules. I know Scots love to claim credit for everything, but please.
In 96 it was about hosting a tournament, taking pride in starting football and being a great host. In the 2020/21 EC it was a reflection to some kind of entitlement and an unfair home advantage, while the part of the hosting England did wasn't particularly good. That toxic chauvinism wasn't there in 96 and was not what the song represents. The low point was an English journalist asking the opponents goalkeeper whether he would like England to win, because it was coming home and England had had such a hard time with covid, where in Denmark it was all fun of course. That summed up why hardly anyone outside England wanted them to win it.
You must be real fun at parties 😂
The guy in the pub who they give a double take was Sir Geoff Hurst who scored a hat trick in the 1966 world cup final.
New Order's "World In Motion" from the 1990 World Cup is a good one. The England team trying to rap is really quite something.
The England team trying to win a trophy is quite something,as well:)
@@Isleofskye At least they reach the finals Jock.
@@Isleofskye At the ladies are doing well.
@@grahamholmes9630 Sassenachs are wee, timorous beasties...
Only John Barnes rapped, and he did a damn fine job!
Omg you know your British when this song has been played every year non stop, gets into your head and never gets out 😂
The little fella in the middle is from the band, the other 2 are comedians Frank Skinner and David Baddiel who used to host a Fantasy Football show on TV ... The bit in the bar where they all stopped and turned in recognition was because the fella who pushed past them won the World Cup with England in '66 :P
Sir Geoff Hurst, the first player to score a hat trick in a World Cup Final (and all in a open play, Mr Mbappe....)
I think you would like the song "Vindaloo" by Fat Les, It was an England football song which features George Dawes from Shooting Stars.
Great Reaction Guys . We were World Champions in 1966 and we have had 3 recent REAL chances of glory and blown them away, Amazingly, all 3 chances were AFTER this 1996 video. So when they say THIRTY YEARS HAVE HURT, it is NOW 56 years and will be exactly 60 YEARS HAVE HURT by the time The World Cup comes around in The USA/Canada/Mexico in 2026. To put it into context we have failed to win The WorldCups of1970,1974,1978,1982,1986,1990,1994,1998,2002,2006,2010,2014,2018,2022 NOW DOUBLE THAT for all The European Championships from 1968,1972,1976,1980 etc etc. When a Million of us go to The USA in 2026 it will be SIXTY YEARS and counting....
Written by Ian broudie of the lightning seeds, another absolutely classic britpop band you must get into 👌
I was there, belting this out, for the Holland and Scotland matches in '96. Haven't experienced an atmosphere like that since and suspect I never will.
@@c_n_b See what you've tried to do there but the theme you've attempted to subvert is to GO home. Never mind.
Watch the beginning of England Vs Germany semi final euro96 when the crowd sing three lions before kick off it's really powerful how much fans were behind the English national team at the home in that tournament
Yeah, vindaloo is another good one👌
The guy they turned to look at in the pub was Geoff Hurst, scorer of the winning goal in the 1966 World Cup final. I'm sure they were singing '30 years of Hurst'. The guy on his arse in a Brazilian shirt near the end was Pele RIP. The reconstructions are what the 2 comedians did in their Fantasy Football program.
Nah this is specifically reserved for England football, weather it’s the euros or World Cup. We will belt this out until we are (inevitably) kicked out 😂😂
It was for Euro 96, but it was re released for the world cup in 98 but with recordings of the fans singing it at England games.
Please please please do Three Lions 98.
It might not have for the men but for the women it did come home in 2022 as England won the euros. The squad crashed the managers press conference after the match singing this with Mary Earps (the keeper) dancing on the table. It’s referenced in the updated 2022 version of the song.
Woke nonsense. It still hasn't come home since 66. You even had to put keeper as no one knows who she is.
@@superbantam523 I would not expect 2 American's to know the players names. The explanation was for them. You might not like women's football but that doesn't mean it's "woke".
@ajayramtohul I wouldn't expect any British to know her name either. Woke agendas bringing women into it. No true football fan thinks its come home.
They’ve done a few versions of this. One for the 96 Euros, one the the 1998 World Cup and most recently. It’s coming home (for Christmas) for the 2022 World Cup.
@david ward after seeing that video as a kid, I only recently understood the "Kuntz" second meaning
The German line up was 10 Kuntz and Klinsmann
It was Geoff Hurst who looked at them in the pub 1966 WC winner. Other what was then current players in the last section
Sir Geoff Hurst - scored a hat-trick to win the only thing England has ever won at Football. Loved how they did a double take in the video.
Every tournament “it’s coming home” can be heard everywhere, memes/clips/edits on social media - pubs and beer gardens, it’s everywhere
It’s sad that only two members of the 1966 World Cup squad are still with us (Sir Bobby Charlton and Sir Geoff Hurst, who was in the pub scene), with George Cohen sadly passing away last month 😔
RIP SIr Bobby...
The two comedians (Frank Skinner/David Baddiel) are singing this alongside the singer from 'The lightning seeds' which are quite a good band
Please please please please please please please 🙏 do Vindaloo by Fat Les. Simply the best England football anthem ever!
Can confirm that's an absolute banger and the best football song
There'll be references in the lyrics that you really won't catch. Even Daniel with his new found enthusiasm for the sport
Fat les Vindaloo, fat les is a band made up of Keith Allen ( Lily Allen’s father) Alex James from blur and the artist Damien Hirst
I'll never forget Wembley 19 97/98 agaisnt Georgia and the crowd swell of the fans singing it ...the hairs still go up on my neck thinking about it
You should follow this with 'Vindaloo'. The video was a copy of a Verve video.
The England team song by New Order in years gone by actually got to number 1.... in Germany..!!
Guys go look at New Order world in motion ..best England song ever was number 1 in France , Germany & Holland ..during a world cup ...banging dance tune !!
Yep, John Barnes' rap is legendary!
Check out new Christmas version. In praise of the lionesses. & a cameo of Noddy Holdor
Yeah that was epic, love to see the women getting recognition, and am cuatiously confident they can actually bag the world cup this summer in Australia
It wasn’t Noddy, it was Frank Skinner dressed as him
@@ajayramtohul yes I I knew it was Frank, I should of said celebrity impression . He talked about it on his absolute radio show.
@@deggsymarley first time I watched it I didn’t notice that it was not Noddy
@@ajayramtohul have you seen his Elvis Costello impression on stars in their eyes.
the version they did for in 98 they have a match against some german fans all with the same name
Definitely have to check out World in Motion by New Order. Another song that was before 1990 World Cup
England always seems to have been Snakebit when it comes to major international tournaments:
- Diego Maradona's "Hand of God" Goal in 86
- David Beckham getting sent off in 98
- Harry Kane getting psyched out by his professional teammate Hugo Lloris last year.
- England's history with Penalty Shootouts in general.
"Three Lions" is cute, but I've always been partial to New Order's "World in Motion" which they did for the 1990 World Cup, because that was when I was introduced to Futbol. That was the Year England got all the way to the Semi-Finals in Italy before losing - in a Penalty Shootout - to West Germany. But that song is a little harder to sing along to than "Three Lions"
The guy in the red shirt, making the tea is the man who wrote the tune, Ian Broudie. The other two guys are English comedians, Frank Skinner and David Baddeil.
love the song, never gets tired, one day
Check out more Lightning Seeds, Ian Broudie is a great song writer from Liverpool.
Other football songs, World in Motion and Vindaloo
It's not the despair, I can cope with the despair, it's the hope that's killing me
Every England fan born after 1966
The guy in the pub at 3.00 is Geoff Hurst who scored 3 goals in England's 1966 World Cup final win, hence Frank Skinners double take.
Ah the memories, goddamn memories man
its criminal that the lightening seeds doesn`t have more fame Stateside . You need to do more LS reactions !
I agree - Ian Brodie is an unsung musical hero - even if he is a Scouser..! Life of Riley anyone..??
Yes, the lighting seeds are a great band, and perfect is still one of my all-time favourite tracks
Couple of football songs. Fat les , vindaloo
The men they couldn’t hang, rosettes
They released a new version for this WC after the Women's team won the euros this year, worth checking out
Great Reaction, Guys! Three Lions (Football's Coming Home) is the best English football song alongside the football/soccer anthem: You'll Never Walk Alone. (⚽ not 🏈)
Ahhh the good old days!
Best football song.... World in motion
There was a new 2022 version that edited the singers as they are now edited it the original video alongside them as they were then.
Fekin well up every time 😂
They did another for the 98 world cup and there is another great england song called vindaloo. And one from 1990 world cup called world in motion
One day it will come home.
We will NEVER stop believing!
The best England football song is the 1982 one. This time, we'll get it right.
Vindaloo great song really starts the party
Vindaloo worth a look too ⚽️
Every England match it’s always sang. Euro 2024 this time
It came home last year when the Women's team won the Euros. First major trophy in 55 years. The men's team is a great squad and the final of the last Euros was rotten luck for them. But World Cups and Euros are a crap shoot - only one team can win and they are both only every 4 years. I feel it would be a miracle if I see it come home in my life time.
England fans sing it, club fans don't...Though as an Aston Villa fan we could sing it if we ever win the league again, as we are the club that started the football league in 1888 ( that comment should get a few bites )😉
Come 2026 it'll be 60 years of hurt for England and 45 years of hurt for Villa.
Also check out Adam and Joe - The Footie Song.
That’s our Englands anthem and I love it, gives me goosebumps hearing it..,at least we lasted longer in this World Cup then you did,, Ha ha ha ha ..
Another great one is vindaloo I think that's how its spelt
The main song at English football matches is Neil Diamond's- Sweet Caroline, should check it out -Don't ask me why!!!!
It’s because it was used at the darts and seemed to cross over last men’s euros.
This song is part of England’s history now and is played at every international tournament involving England , also check out anther England football chart hit ( 2000) FAT LES = VINDALOO ( hilarious) 😂
To be honest the cheeky German version made me laugh.
Three lines on the shirt lol
60 years isn't far over the horizon!
The England football team: Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory since '66..
Vindaloo
Here we go again...
should check out the song Pure from the lightning Seeds, excellent
Remember back in 96 in a club.. This song came on everyone sung it... A couple of Americans stood nearby completely flummoxed... Had to explain to them. What was occurring!! Lol
It’s mainly sung at England games but occasionally in the premier league! It’s actually 2 pronged, the title is more in reference to the sport of football coming home as the rules and reg we’re first codified in England in about the 1850’s I think. All the other countries seemed to think it meant the trophy was coming home but if you listen to the lyrics there’s a hope that it will stay in England after the tournament was over but we’ve hoped so many times before and we’ve lost games that on the day we should never have and that’s what we mean by threw it away! They thought we were being arrogant but never are about football, we talk a good game but we have NO confidence when that whistle blows because if there’s a way to loose it England will find it!
We are same who not think ”it’s coming home” … just because we not English or even British…
But we like your show 🥰
We ( Sweden ) have a good one in -94 …!
As others have said, check out more songs by the lightning seeds. If you want some other good British music look up the housemartins, beautiful south, and paul Heaton/Jacqui Abbott, all fronted by paul heaton, house,arti s also included fatboy slim).
_SIXTY_ years of hurt now!
..and _counting_
But NO _breath-holding_
It came home when the girls beat Germany 2 -1 in Euros won at Wembley last summer. The 1966 World Cup, ticked that off I was 11.., the lads have captured the irony of the song.
It took the Linonesses last year to end all them years of hurt, you need to react to the greatest footy song and that's New Order - World In Motion, the John Barnes ( LFC Legend) rap is really good
Need to do vindaloo next
Ian Brodie of the lightning seeds wrote this (and is in it) and this will always be the biggest English football anthem - however I agree with many people here the lightning seeds would be a great 90s/Britpop band to react to - they’re a Liverpool band! My fave is sugar coated iceberg which I think is 96, same year as this. Big ones which are also great are life of Riley and lucky you
You can’t forget ‘Change’ and ‘Sense’ which are both bangers.
we even sing darts is coming home lol
You gotta react to the Xmas version. Or even better when the Lionesses won the Euros and ambushed the press conference afterwards singing the song
yes! or better still do both!
Just dawned on me that in 2026 the '30 years of hurt' will be 60; I feel old as shit! I was 11 when it came out, you could hear it being sung all down the street every time there was a match on.
Not a club song. It’s a England song sung at tournaments so yes you’ll hear it in four years time.
The song is full of real memories of past glories and failures. We ARE pessimistic but also, and it's NOT OPTOMISTIC....IT'S HOPE. We just can't let go of the hope!
It's never sung at a football game that doesn't involve 'England' because it's 'Three Lions'. This can only refer to the England shirt. Lovely reaction. x
Reportedly the German team were singing it in their own bus on the way to some of the matches in 96.
you simply have to watch...."WORLD IN MOTION"...sung by NEW ORDER, another (manchester band)....written by the band, for the 1990 world cup, NEW ORDER were one of the 3 manchester bands, that led to the "MADCHESTER" sound, along with oasis, and the stone roses...this song, is on another level to "footballs coming home"........it even got to number one, in the uk charts...it was so catchy, that it was played in discos, and nightclubs all over the country......it even has a rap segment, in the middle of the song....you gotta give it a watch guys!!...it blows footballs coming home, out of the water!
Check out Vindaloo by Fat Les that's another football song.
Gotta do the New Order one now
You will like the “vindaloo” song it’s about football and curry
Its only appropriate to the England football team.the official 96 song which meant litterally footballs coming home as the tournament was in England and we invented football. There was a 98 version by the lightning seeds and baddiel and skinner 2 comedians. Now it coming home means we are going to win the euros or world cup.
They were playing football and singing along with actual England football players towards the end of the video. Squad from Euro 96.
Oh yeah, another great England football song is Vindaloo by Fat Les.
You should react to other ones like vindaloo and world in motion
You should checkout New Order World in motion from 1990 World Cup.. John Barnes rap is the best bit 😀😀
you guys should react to The Lightning Seeds ..........a great band
It’s the most popular football songs acer written I would say in uk
Its a band called the lighting seeds who made the song, a awesome English band check them out as I know you like the British bands lol
You should check out the 1998 and 2022 versions too! The lyrics of 1998 are similar, but not exactly the same (but the video is hilarious), and the 2022 is just.. The newest lyrics
even the bloody germans sing it
Croatia sing it
It makes sense as often,for them,it DOES come home...lol
You lads better get some tickets to an England game in 2026 and wear your England shirts. You can experience this song properly - sung by the fans. The atmosphere won't be sanitised like in the recent world cup in Qatar where alot of England fans didn't want to go
You need to watch the new 2022 it's coming home
This is an anthem in the uk
There's another version aswell from 98
