Футбол - это не только игра, фанаты и красные карточки.
Это еще и официальные гимны чемпионатов.
В этом году
ФИФА выбрала три песни для поддержания всеобщей футбольной эйфории
"Waving Flag" by K'naan (канадско-сомалийский исполнитель!)
Ooooooh Wooooooh, Ooooooh Wooooooh
Give me freedom, give me fire, give me reason, take me higher
See the champions, take the field now, you define us, make us feel proud
In the streets our heads are lifting, as we lose our inhibition,
Celebration, it surround us, every nations, all around us
Singing forever young, singing songs underneath that sun
Lets rejoice in the beautiful game,
And together at the end of the day.
We all say
When I get older I will be stronger
They’ll call me freedom, just like a wavin’ flag
When I get older I will be stronger
They’ll call me freedom, just like a wavin’ flag
So wave your flag, now wave your flag, now wave your flag
Oooohhh, Oooooooooh wooooohh, Oooooooooh wooooohh
Give you freedom, give you fire, give you reason, take you higher
See the champions, take the field now, you define us, make us feel proud
In the streets our heads are lifting, as we lose our inhibition,
Celebration, its around us, every nations, all around us
Singing forever young, singing songs underneath that sun
Lets rejoice in the beautiful game,
And together at the end of the day.
We all say
When I get older I will be stronger
They’ll call me freedom, just like a wavin’ flag
When I get older I will be stronger
They’ll call me freedom, just like a wavin’ flag
So wave your flag, now wave your flag, now wave your flag
Now wave your flag (4x)
Oohhoooohh Woooh Ohohooooh Wooohoooh
We all say

They’ll call me freedom, just like a wavin’ flag

So wave your flag, now wave your flag, now wave your flag
Now wave your flag (4x)
Oooooh woowoo ooh Wooo ooohh ooohoh

"Waka Waka" by Shakira with Freshlyground
You're a good soldier
Choosing your battles
Pick yourself up
And dust yourself off
And back in the saddle
You're on the frontline
Everyone's watching
You know it's serious
We're getting closer
This isn't over
The pressure is on
You feel it
But you've got it all
Believe it
When you fall get up
Oh oh...
And if you fall get up
Oh oh...
Tsamina mina
Zangalewa
Cuz this is Africa
Tsamina mina eh eh
Waka Waka eh eh
Tsamina mina zangalewa
This time for Africa
Listen to your god
This is our motto
Your time to shine
Don't wait in line
Y vamos por Todo
People are raising
Their Expectations
Go on and feed them
This is your moment
No hesitations
Today's your day
I feel it
You paved the way
Believe it
If you get down
Get up Oh oh...
When you get down
Get up eh eh...
Tsamina mina zangalewa
This time for Africa
Tsamina mina eh eh
Waka Waka eh eh
Tsamina mina zangalewa

"Sign of a victory" by R Kelly - вот эта мне больше всего нравится
I can see the colors of the rainbow,
and I can feel the sun on my face,
I see the light at the end of the tunnel,
and I can feel heaven in its place,
and that’s the sign of a victory (x2)
I can feel the spirit of the nations
and I can feel my wings ridin’ the winds, yeah
I see the finish line just up ahead na
and I can feel it risin’ deep within
and thats the sign of a victory (x2)
Now I can the distance of the journey,
high and front with all your might,
you open your eyes to global warming,
been through it all, you sacrificed your life
and that’s the sign of a victory (x2)
If we believe, we can achieve anything including the impossible this I know so lets lift up our heads and raise the flag yeah yeah and scream like you want to win now let the games begin!
that’s the sign of a victory (x4)
when you keep on fightin’ , after you lost your strength
that’s the sign of a victory
when darkness is all around you, you still find your way
thats the sign of a victory
come on and sing, lift up your voice and sing, stand up, oh yeah, stand up
sign of a victory
ooooohh ohh ohhhh
