There's a an ad running now, plugging ESPN/ABC coverage of the upcoming World Cup. It focuses on fans from Scotland. Lots of St. Andrew crosses, face paint, tartan, etc. (awww... lookit all the happy football hooligans). All good, right? Except the background music is the guitar riff from "I Will Follow." Which is a great riff, no mistake. Except, hey ESPN morons! U2 are fookin' Irish ya bastards. Ireland is not Scotland. Would it have been too much trouble to license "Fields of Fire"?!?
it's crap
They need to use "In A Big Country." That one always strikes me as the quintessential Scottish pop song.
that would be good too. pretty much *anything* scottish would be an improvement (except the proclaimers). hey how 'bout some finitribe?
