Mock-up ... how Becks might have looked on the decks

 

It's a blingin' shame

 

 

IT could have been our best-ever World Cup song – but sadly it wasn’t to be.

I can reveal DAVID BECKHAM agreed to make a special appearance on a revamped version of NEW ORDER’s classic, World In Motion.

The England ace was all set to bling it up and swap free-kicks for freestyle rap — but FA bosses pulled the plug.

The hit footie chant, originally penned for the 1990 World Cup, was set for its second release for the 2002 tournament in Japan.

And Becks was up for visiting the recording studio to tackle JOHN BARNES’ infamous rap before FA bigwigs gave him the red card at the last minute.

Instead, they lined up ANT and DEC to perform the official England song We’re On The Ball.

And I’m sorry boys, but it was rubbish by comparison.

My computer wizards show what Becks might have looked like if he took up rapping like his idols 50 CENT and EMINEM.

New Order frontman PETER HOOK told me: “We’re definitely not re-releasing World In Motion this year. We were going to re-do it for 2002 and even approached David Beckham to re-record the John Barnes rap.

“And he agreed! So did his management. In fact, everything was in place but then the FA banned it because they had already signed Ant and Dec.

“It’s a shame. It would have been brilliant. But that was our last effort and it was shot down.

“We’ll never do another football song. If we did, we’d use WAYNE ROONEY now.”

Sorry, but I reckon Wayne and his broken foot have had quite enough of hip-hop.

Still, there’s always The Sun’s hit Who Do You Think You Are Kidding Jurgen Klinsmann? to fire up our boys in Germany.

i hate him enough as he is... not mentioning if he starts Rapping!

^Even worse would be if he did a duet with his wife!!:rolleyes:

:laugh4: :laugh4:

Do you mean "Stick"toria??:thinking:

Stop press: Sticktoria has taken up the guitar. Here's an exclusive pic I got hold of:

 

It probably still would have been better than 'World at your feet'. :P

You might have a point.

 

Anyway, people are all going to be singing the other one, "Is This the Way to Win the World Cup?":P

Haha probably, at least the lyrics arent difficult.

 

Have you ever heard ours? The worst thing about it is that you can't even sing it because it's a rap.

Bring back world in motion. And the true masta' garage MC John Barnes.

Which means it's probably ©RAP!:P

Although it was a little bit worrying when he sang "There's only one way to beat them, get round the back".

Apparently that line was written by Elton.:rolleyes:

Indeed, that does worry The Faceman. Although I have set it as my ringtone and I'm a man who hates ringtones. It just felt like the right thing to do though.

It is! Nobody is gonna know the words anyway.

Well it's still the greatest footie song ever. It has no equal.

And I bet nobody gives a damn, either!!:P

No, but we need some good footaball song!

The Faceman concurs with your hypothesis. World in motion is indeed the greatest football song of all time. On the ball is shit in comparison.

And maybe some good footballers to go with it!!:P

That's a bit like comparing Wayne Rooney to Carlton Palmer!!:P

And maybe some good footballers to go with it!!:P

 

We have some good footballers, that's why Switzerland are qualified and Ireland and Turkey aren't!
