Blur bassist Alex James is apparently considering writing a song with his fellow Fat Les members to rival Embrace's official World Cup track, 'World At Your Feet'. James has spoken to NME about the possibility in no uncertain terms:
"Every winter I forget how cold it gets," he says "and it's like that with every World Cup - you forget how fucking huge it is. The whole world comes to a halt. People have been saying, 'Are you going to do a football record?' and I'm like, 'No', but you start getting a sniff of it. And it's like, 'Embrace?' I'd do a fucking better job than that. [Fat Les member] Keith Allen's been calling. I've been thinking about it. Ian McCulloch's been singing 'Come on, come on, you fucking England' to the Bryan Ferry song 'Let's Stick Together'. You take the backing track from that, stick McCulloch singing 'Come on, come on, you fucking England!' and Embrace can fucking suck my cock."
