What’s The Bobby Moore?: What’s the Bobby Moore?

What’s The Bobby Moore? is available online.

Musical Style: A guitar-driven cockernee-style pub singalong with de-tuned chorus and handclaps.

Over The Moon: This year there are so many different England Anthems in so many different musical styles that it's almost comforting when a good old traditional footie anthem such as What’s The Bobby Moore? turns up. Bobby Moore, as all students of Cockney Rhyming Slang know, means SCORE. Once again the creator of this song is something of a publicity-shy enigma, but it’s a fair song, and you can picture the England squad of yesteryear on Top of the Pops, waving their England scarves above their heads, going "tra-la-la-la!" like footballers always do.

Sick As A Parrot: The current England team wouldn’t actually be seen dead waving their scarves above their heads on Top of the Pops, unless they matched their Gucci shirts and shoes or were part of a carefully constructed sponsorship deal. The musical plod and the cockney 'barraboy' vocals make you realise how far things have moved on since the heyday of this kind of Anthem, which wouldn't be out of place in a football remake of Oliver!
