Wembley music?

Post by x586 »

After giving up on trying to get into the bogs at half-time to take a piss, I got back to my seat just as the teams came out. Stirring guitar music, which I liked. It sounded a bit like something Muse would put out. If it is by them, I can't identify it.

Anyone know/remember what it was? Cheers.

In the second half, it wasn't my bladder that I was worried about......

that just reminded me: i'm glad that one of the post-victory songs exorcised the ghost of luton away. everytime i heard this song, it reminded me of being crushed at the final whistle at kenilworth road.

it'll still remind me of that, but i'll have a smile as i think of what came afer: promotion at wembley without a town fan in sight.

didn't really like the song anyway, but you hear it bloody everywhere.

I'm afraid I'm one of the 5 million or so people who downloaded it for my iPhone. :o

does wembley insist on pelting out music at full blast at the final whistle..the one time that the winning side are guaranteed to make a good noise( although we did all day long!)

As least we didnt have to listen to &quot we are the champions....&quot

Where might one find the 'Wembley' version of 'She Wore a Yellow Ribbon'?

Song you're looking for is indeed Muse. Knights of Cydonia is the title.

Ah - great, thanks. I'll get it off itunes later, and annoy the household by listening to it loudly whilst necking Bulmer's Pear Cider.

Thought the music at Wembley was rather good - or at least, to my taste (Killers/Kaiser Chiefs et al). Overblown before kick-off and FT though, but what the hell.

As proof that OUFC have emerged from under a stone since Sunday, I was overtaken yesterday AM on the A46 going into Leicester by a Black Merc with an OUFC minikit. Caught up and gesticulated like mad - he grinned knowingly....
