check on youtube: BBC Review of World Cup Italia '90 (uploaded by VideotapeFTW), forward to 40:26, check the German WC song...never mind world cup song, that's the best song ever!
I like he changed it to all these years of hurt and not 30. Since it’s 56 for the men. Shout out the Women’s football Team for bringing the Euros home.
Lmao, there are U21 sides in League One that could beat the England women's team. Anyone who thinks women's football is a good quality sport is deluded.
When it was just Ian and the fans it was magnificent. I'm a big old lump, ex roadie for heavy metal bands and one who always stated after he named his band, “...and we play rock & roll!” I'm still a biker 6ft 2" 220lbs well into my 60s now and I had tears running down my cheeks. Such a passionate song. A really English song. Who said English people don't show their emotions. Not that my bio is relative to my getting emotional but to look at me you would not picture it. Thank you so much for posting up this terrific video. It looks like a great time was had by all.
Remember the Italians saying it inspired them to beat England in the 2021 final. Remember the Croatians saying it inspired them to beat England in the 2018 semi-final. Remember the Germans singing it at Wembley after winning Euro96 after beating England in the semis.
Still such a great song, even though it hasn't been fulfilled yet. I'm not even a Brit, but that chorus still gets me hyped. While I'd love to see my own country (USA) win the World Cup in my lifetime, I wouldn't even be mad if England won it in 2026.
The Song was about the Euros in 1996 being hosted in England…the last time England hosted a major tournament was in 1966. Therefore football coming home was a major tournament coming home…. But what seems to have happened is that people think it means the trophy is coming home!?!?!??
pretty sure the fact they released it again in 98, 2000 & 22 when we weren't hosting the tournament shows that the song was more than merely about hosting the tournament, it is about dreaming of winning.
@@Mister_JOC Agreed and adding to this England invented football therefore the tournament was coming home. Now we talk about the trophy coming home as in the game is coming back to its original starting place.
@@hutch7802 I’m an England fan and I get it. I agree and love it… I’m responding to non English fans that only see the one perspective…. Nothing is black and white…. Come on England
96 official song for England, 98 lyrics changed with the sounds from Euro 96 and was a reflection of getting to 98 World Cup… trying to make sure non England fans get the perspective. It is an England Song of hope with Football (yes the trophy coming home). I was talking about the 96 version original. In the 98 version I love the line “and Psycho Screaming” with Stuart Pearce memory of him scoring the penalty against Spain in the QF…. Anyway. Come on England.
I feel I should point out this each time anyone says this because it bugs me how everyone has got it misinterpreted - the phrase "Football's coming home" was the slogan for Euro 96 and refers to the fact the tournament was held in England, the "home of football". It has nothing to do with England winning anything and no-one ever said this, not Baddiel and Skinner, not the fans who started singing at the stadium. It was just a nice nostalgic thing about a football tournament being played in England, when the last time there was a tournament in 66, England did win it. I actually hate everyone now going "do you think it's coming home?" because it's another albatross and yet another opportunity for other supporters to have a cheap shot.
@@danbreen6946 I meant at the time of the 96 Euros the last time a tournament was held in England it was won by England, which was why the song was nostalgic.
@@Firemansamfan1 people saying it's coming home or it's not coming home, was never about England winning it was about hosting...oh never mind I give up.
Still annoys me that people think the 3 Lions are English, far from it, they are French. Originally leopards. The 3rd lion is a nod to Richard the Lion Heart, born in Oxford, but could not speak any English, son of Elinor of Aquatone, king of Normandy and Aquatone, Grhh homage to the French
Best football song ever. Lightning Seeds legacy is assured.
that's world in motion, but this is second.
Second best. John Barnes rap is iconic
Agreed 👍 from a proud glaswegian

Cheers from Brazil! This may be the year..

It was changed back on 1998... The original was for euro 96 then re released 2 years later for France 98 with the changed lyrics
Fuck Women’s football that doe count.
Lmao, there are U21 sides in League One that could beat the England women's team. Anyone who thinks women's football is a good quality sport is deluded.
Have you seen the newest one? They sing "for the men's game" after singing "56 years of hurt".
Love this song, never tire of it
I am not a fan of football but this has to be the best song ever for football

Ahh, words still ring true!!
The footballs are coming home not sure about the World Cup

Cheers Shelley! 👍💜💜💜💜🏴
I'm from Poland. In our country, there are football songs too, but they all suck. So I listen to this one.
England has a bunch of stinkers too.
One day amigos, one day... !!
C'mon England... ⚽
hope not 3c Lions as French as you can get
Let's hope it doesn't come home. Think of how insufferable they'll be (although this song is amazing.)
cheers for england. i believe you will win it again. this song fills me with hope and i'm not even english!
#itscominghome
Nice one shells
Shame they didnt get David and Frank on stage with them.
why does that kid look younger than my son lol amazing song tho!!!! Love the Xmas version and i am Scottish!
That's Ian Broudie's son Riley (named after the song Life of Riley).
@@tcaudiobooks737 Yeah, well, Jude Martin is named after Hey Jude okay
/s
Hahahaha on being Scottish. Unlucky ar kid.
Hope it gets to no1.
Bound to be number 1 for Christmas

This is your time, England. ❤

If we can keep it home to the USA in 26, then it better be England. I already have my Three Lions kit in the closet.

Well it is if you live in France.
i hope England FC win at least 1 Euro tournament before any of these lads pass on
Not with big nose in charge its not!
U r a pratt most successful England manager in tournament wins ever and all you can do is give personal abuse not clever.
@@johnholt890 if that's the type of football you want to watch fair play. Want a charity bet that we won't win the tournament?
Even as a German football fan I have to admit I like this song.
But I'm sorry for you - it's not coming home😂
Well from what I have seen so far (losing to Japan!) it ain’t going to Germany
@@johnholt890 It’s more likely to go to Germany out of habit. 4-1.
@@johnholt890 You are right - Germany isn't going far this World Cup. But it's not coming home either
Looks like more of a chance it’s going to England than Germany 😂
@@Tdr-jv2nc The sad thing is, you know that’s really no more likely to happen either.
No it’s nae😂
🤡
Elimination's coming home!
lol usa
@@jackhammers7572 last 16 exit for england this time.

Let this one go
English king represented and was born in England regardless of the language he spoke.
Wait til I tell everyone at the pub on Saturday, they're gonna feel so stupid
England no place better
How embarrassing
Before the England team and management went woke..
Watched them all over the world...I wouldn't do now.
Weird
Fancy wanting to treat each member of the squad equally. Disgusting 🙄
They’re the only ones kneeling before the match, it looks so ridiculous now.
@@sharinglungs3226 Embarrassing.
@@sharinglungs3226 wakes too
Song 26 years old and it’s still not came home 😂😂
Unfortunately it's not..... Gareth Southgate is clueless 🏴😩
He's doing a good job!
@@barriejackson965 he's not Barrie he's shite
🤣🤣
Hi, good win against Wales, though!
Shows what you know must tournaments win by any England manager more than Sir Alf. Perhaps it is you thats clueless.
