Label: Select Label
Format: CDS

Reworking of Sham 69's 1978 classic 'Hurry Up Harry', rewritten for the World Cup

Review

Well, you know what this is, right? It's a rewrite of Sham 69's best song, ‘Hurry Up Harry’ updated from 1978 and turned into a modern lager lout's anthem. Rewritten for the World Cup, it sounds both angrier than before and also very polished with the added power of Brit popper Graham Coxon on guitar. Even if you are not a football fan, you will find that this song really kicks ass.

1 Sham 69 & The Special Assembly- Hurry Up England - The People's Anthem
