ONWARD ENGLAND! is a battle-cry for every red-blooded England football fan.
It was written by Gordon Loncaster as a passionate, gutsy response to the situation
where no World Cup song has truly captured the country’s heart or imagination
– even at this late stage!
With influences from The Jam, The Boo Radleys, The Sex Pistols and Madness,
ONWARD ENGLAND! requires only a single listen to be hooked, and was specially
written for England fans to sing on the terraces. (“Sing For the Boys!”
“Lift Up Your Lion Hearts!”)
With no celebrity novelty clutter, Onward England! is the only song written
by the people, for the people – a real spitfire of a football anthem which
will really fire up the nation.
“What England needs is a song which will REALLY inspire and ignite this
country’s collective dream,” says Gordon.
“A passionate, gutsy zeitgeist moment – a blue touchpaper to light
NOW! Basically this is the proper anthem for the fans with a big fat rocket
up its jacksie.”
You can’t listen to ONWARD ENGLAND! without knowing it was written by
a footie fan who really cares.
ONWARD ENGLAND !!! ONWARD ENGLAND !!!
