Best ever song is WC 90's Un'estate italiana by Gianna Nannini & Edoardo Bennato, it speaks for itself. And don't ask for translations, because stuff like that you cannot translate as it only sounds good in original version/language.


Un'estate italiana

Forse non sarà una canzone
a cambiare le regole del gioco
ma voglio viverla cosi quest'avventura
senza frontiere e con il cuore in gola

E il mondo in una giostra di colori
e il vento accarezza le bandiere
arriva un brivido e ti trascina via
e sciogli in un abbraccio la follia

notti magiche
inseguendo un goal
sotto il cielo
di un'estate italiana

e negli occhi tuoi
voglia di vincere
un'estate
un'avventura in più

Quel sogno che comincia da bambino
e che ti porta sempre più lontano
non è una favola - e dagli spogliatoi
escono i ragazza e siamo noi

notti magiche
inseguendo un goal
sotto il cielo
di un'estate italiana

e negli occhi tuoi
voglia di vincere
un'estate
un'avventura in più

notti magiche
inseguendo un goal
sotto il cielo
di un'estate italiana

e negli occhi tuoi
voglia di vincere
un'estate
un'avventura in più
un'avventura

un'avventura in più
un'avventura goal !

Who the hell is this guy?

you mean Nelly Furtado?... if so, then he's actually a "She." ;)


you know.. the girl who sang "I'm like a Bird.." you must have at least heard that song a couple of years ago on the radio.

    Not necessarily. It wasn't a very big hit in NL either.

    Subject to taste I would argue.

    Anyway, there will be a Portuguese and an English version.

    What about the mascots? I haven't seen a cool tournament mascot since Footix. And the 2002 ones were downright horrible.
