U2 and Football themes

I think the band U2 have captured the 'incidental music for football' market. ;A beautiful day' is used in the UK for the Saturday footy show I seem to recall, and out here 'I will Follow' is used on ESPN, and Ive just heard 'Pride' being played in between clips.

They might be a great band, but they seem to have hocked their buttholes to the football devil. Poor Bono, he must have really needed the cash. Maybe we should have a blog whip around for the hard up band? The Edge has always dressed like a tramp - I just thought it was his image, but maybe I was wrong, maybe he was just skint?



"Buddy can you spare me a dime?" Could be the new U2 single?

I think U2 have taken the mantel of sporting music from Queen, mind you, 'We are the champions', and We will Rock you'. will take some beating!
