Chumbawamba

Whats the song that plays in the game? Y'know, 'I get knocked down, but I get up again, your never gonna keep me down' etc? Can anyone tell me the name and artist plz?

Cheers man.

haha i remember that song, one of those one-hit wonders

Chumbawamba what a fantastic song it was, i loved it,but i belive Blur song 2 on FIFA RTWC was much better.

Song 2 by Blur is the ULTIMATE PARTY SONG!


WOOO-HOOO!!!

Acutally Chumbawamba did do another song called "Top Of The World (Olé Olé Olé)" not long after they made "Tubthumping" (that song ur on about), and it was a footy tune released to cash in on the World Cup.

Since then where have they gone? I remember one of them poured a bucket of water on Two Jag's head (Dan But No Bacon - whatever his name was???)... but they're just another act confined to the "Disappeared" dustbin...

Yeah Song2 by Blur is still good - four years on, but didn't they break up too? One of them is in that "Gorillaz" or whatever they're called.

I also liked "Rockafeller Skank" by Fatboy Slim on FIFA 99 but the music in FIFA 2000 and 2001 has been total sh*te!!! I did like the dance tunes Oaky did in Euro 2000 but I hear Faithless have been signed up to do the music in FIFA 2002 so that's a welcome relief (they are excellent - honestly!!!)

Chumbawamba had another hit: Amnesia

No blur hasn't broken up. Damon Albarn (lead singer) is in Gorillaz though. But that is only his "hobby-band"...

Gorillaz are actually cartoon characters. When they were nominated for a music award recently they wanted to turn it down because the members of the band didn't really exist.

Even nowadays Song2 is still played on radio stations across the country (apart from Radio 1 but they never play anything over six months old it seems!)

BTW I tried to put Fatboy Slim's "The Rockafeller Skank" in the WC98 music folder and changed the name so it replaced one of the WC98 tracks, but the game kept crashing on the title screen. I think it could be to do with the fact that the FIFA 99 ASF files weren't the same format and thus froze the game as it couldn't playback...

Yet FIFA 2000's STR files were a similar format to FIFA 98 and WC98's ASFs and could be converted to WAV using SNDVIEW or that Musicedit2000 that Fifacostarica made years ago.
