Sham 69 Singer To Release England World Cup Song
Ex Sham 69 singer Jimmy Pursey is set to record an alternate England World Cup Song.

Going head to head with those middling indie warblers Embrace, Pursey is releasing a re-working of the band�s hit �Hurry Up Harry� titled �Hurry Up England.�

The song was voted for by listeners of Virgin Radio. Breakfast show host Christian O�Connell said: Unlike other football songs, this will truly be a single made by the fans, for the fans."

All proceeds from the track will go to the Teenage Cancer Trust. Runner-up in the competition �Howling At The Moon� entered by an under eights football club will be included as a B-Side.

Better still, John Barnes famous for his rap on New Order�s �World In Motion� will rap on one of the two tracks.

Fingers crossed it keeps those Huddersfield lads off the top spot.
