MARK: On behalf of myself (Vincera90) and Webbie ( Football and Music) I’d like to welcome David Bloomfield to the podcast. The result of that lightning bolt of inspiration of course, was World In Motion. Webbie kindly asked me if I’d like to chat with the man whose idea it was to marry England’s 1990 World Cup campaign with the music of one of the most respected indie bands of the era. This episode is actually the brainchild of Webbie – the chief of the brilliant Football and Music website who was a guest on Vincerà back in episode 9. Well here we are, or a least here I am with the first of what may or not be occasional bonus follow-up episodes where we’ll expand further on Italia ’90 stories or look to tie up a few loose ends we didn’t get round to in the original series.
#The flaming lips the yeah yeah yeah song lyrics series#
After our final epic installment which concluded the series you probably didn’t expect to hear from us again. Hello again Mark Godfrey here, your host of Vincerà! – the story of Italia ’90 podcast. »īelow is a transcript of the episode with the addition of music and video clips and links to other things mentioned by David in the interview. I asked Mark from the pod if he wanted to have a chat with David about that eureka moment with the England World Cup 1990 song, as well as obviously about Italia ’90 and his years at the F.A.

Well they did actually, but that’s beside the point… If it wasn’t for him we might’ve had Black Lace or James Corden release an England song. The name might not be familiar to you, but if it wasn’t for Mr David Bloomfield, the former Press Officer at the Football Association we wouldn’t have had New Order, Keith Allen or that magical John Barnes rap.ĭavid, and there’s no exaggeration here, might have single-handedly saved the football and music genre and gave it some respectability. This is a collaboration with our friends at Vincerà! The story of Italia ‘90 and features the gentlemen pictured above. For the very first time on the Football and Music website there is an actual proper podcast.
