Calvin Harris asked to write football song for Queen of the South

Calvin Harris has been asked by officials at Queen of the South to compose a piece of music for players to enter the pitch to before home games.

Electro-pop-disco-thing Calvin Harris looks set to add to his catalogue with a song about his home city's football team, Queen Of The South (that city is Dumfries, in case you wondered).

NME.com reports that the bug-eyed musician has been approached by officials asking him to compose a piece of music that the players can come onto the pitch to before every game. PA operator Alex Wilson said: "It was basically a challenge to him. It was in the papers that he was a Queen of the South supporter. So when I met him in the pub I asked him if he would do me a bit of music - I thought I would just chance it and see. We need to try and get something more up tempo".

Harris will presumably now claim to creating the football song too.
