Coxon, Pursey jump on World Cup bandwagon

Graham Coxon and Sham 69's Jimmy Pursey have recorded Hurry Up England, a reworking of Sham 69's 1978 hit, with proceeds going to the Teenage Cancer Trust.

Oh joy. Another World Cup song. Graham Coxon and Sham69's Jimmy Pursey have apparently recorded a reworked version of the punk band's 1978 hit 'Hurry Up Harry' as 'Hurry Up England'. Oh, see, and now I've got to feel a bit guilty for deriding the release of yet another football track because proceeds from the sale of the single will go to the Teenage Cancer Trust. So you'd all better go and buy a copy, now. To assuage my guilt.
