More World Cup Awesomeness

I loved this.

Of course ET and I were in Wales during the 1998 World Cup (when the much-hyped English bowed out against a solid team from Argentina, think), and during that time, the unofficial world cup pub theme in the UK was "Vindaloo" by Fat Les (here's the link to the video). I was thinking today about how the US needs a good pub song for the games this year, and low and behold, I found out there is one that is gaining traction. It's called "Over There" and it is derived from a WWI-era war song. I'm embedding a video to help you learn it for this weekend. Obviously, just as in soccer, England has a leg up on us in pub songs, but this is a good first effort. If you find yourself wondering what you would do with such a song, it can generally be sung arm-in-arm with friends at a bar whenever the US scores or makes a good play. Enjoy.
