Alex James says offical tune can ‘suck my cock’
Blur bassist Alex James and Fat Les are planning to spoil Embrace’s World Cup party with the announcement that they are considering writing a rival song for the tournament.Embrace are set to soundtrack the sporting summer with the official England World Cup song, ‘World At Your Feet’.
However, upset at the choice, James is in talks about doing his own song, along with Fat Les mate Keith Allen, and possibly even Echo And The Bunnymen frontman Ian McCulloch too.
“Every winter I forget how cold it gets, and it’s like that with every World Cup – you forget how fucking huge it is,” the Blur bassist told NME.COM. “The whole world comes to a halt. People have been saying, ‘Are you going to do a football record?’ and I’m like, ‘No’, but you start getting a sniff of it. And it’s like, ‘Embrace?’. I’d do a fucking better job than that. Keith Allen’s been calling. I’ve been thinking about it.”
Wouldn’t a new song by Fat Les be a stormer for this years world cup! Go for it lads! You can Discuss this further over at the NME Forums.
I wonder if they would want the fatles.co.uk domain? Guys if your reading this maybe we could come to some type of arrangement…..Please!
