It's a great album, best one ever. I'm playing it non-stop on my CD player in my Ford pick-up. You can't expect a bunch of 50 year olds to write the same music as they did when they were in their twenties. Just be thankful that they are still recording and touring. If you don't like them, then go fook yourself and follow another band.
That's how you defend it isn't it?

Total mishmash that England Utd thing. If I had produced it I would have gone with David Beckham rapping in the middle about ow Eng-er-land were going to win the cup to appeal to the Asian market. Maybe with Glenn Hoddle and Chris Waddle guest singing the backing vocals, reliving their 80s hit Diamond Lights.
Seriously though, what's the difference between the Bunnymen or New Order or Embrace doing it? They were all like the England football team's performance in the world cup, shit - novelty songs. As an official England footie song, nobody remembers Top of the World at all. Most remember New Order, Baddiel and Skinner with the Lightning Seeds (which actually wasn't a world cup song) and Fat Les.
