Manic Street Preachers Euro 2016

Manic Street Preachers are to release Wales’s official Euro 2016 song. Euro 2016 being some football thing that’s happening this summer. And what would a football thing be without a song? Especially as this is the first time Wales has managed to get into a major football tournament in over 50 years. Apparently.

This particular song is called ‘Together Stronger (C’mon Wales)’ and will be released on 20 May. It’s being announced now because the Welsh football team are playing a couple of warm-up matches to limber themselves up. They’ll play Northern Ireland tomorrow, then Ukraine on 29 Mar.

Team manager Chris Coleman says: “It was fantastic to be involved with such an iconic Welsh band. Manic Street Preachers have been passionate Welsh football supporters and all the lads enjoyed the experience and joined in. It is also great to be supporting such worthwhile causes in the Princes Gate Trust and Tenovus Cancer Care”.

Oh yes, it’s all for charity too. I almost forgot to mention that. Thanks Chris. You’ll probably be able to listen to the song at some point in the future, but that time is not now.
