The Champions League Theme Song?

[n00bie deluxe]

Anyone like this song? I think it's kind of neat. Does anyone have the lyrics to it?

[Achtung]

Not sure on the lyrics, but I think I've got the mp3 somewhere around here. Its very cool indeed.

[evilcrossbar]

the song is a reworking of Handel.

[Weißbier]

a part of this offical cl song is in german.

they sing: wir sind die champions.... etc.

[Clan]

I thought it was a collection of languages all saying the same thing...."We are the champions".

[Random]

No, No, No.

They clearly sing

"Lasagnaaaaaaa!"

Listen harder. :)

[spender]

ha ha

[Fatal Flux]

I like the song too. :)

I downloaded it off of KaZaA.

[delo_pata]

It's by a British composer named, of all things, Tony Britten. The piece is, erm, influenced heavily by Handel's Zadok the Priest.

[thurd]

whats the name of the song, and who is the artist?

ESPN showed all the words to the hymn 2 years ago during halftime of the Lazio-Leeds match. I have the words written out if you would like for me to post them.

[n00bie deluxe]

Yes, please post them.

YES, PLEASE. I promise not to hate Man U as much if you do it.

Seriously, the ads every year with the soccer ball with the team names and crests and the images of the Final then Champion hoisting the huge Cup inside and with the hymn are the best ads I've ever seen Especially this year with ZZ's volley.

Ha, it does sound like "Lasagnaaaa".

These are the official lyrics to the song ...

We'll build a competition from which you can't get knocked out,
As long as you're Real, United or your chairman's got clout,
It'll be the same old teams again and again,
At least four from Italy, England and Spain.

It's all part of our great master plan you must see,
To get lots of money selling the rights to TV,
The fans may get bored of all these meaningless games,
but it's all advertising space for the big brand names.

No room for your Belgians, Swedes or East Europeans
But we'll stil call the winners...... The Champions!

[ManUfan2121]

Here are the lyrics the theme song. It is written in English, French, and German.

Ce sont les meilleures equipes
Es sind die allerbesten Mannschaften
The main event
Die Meister
Die Besten
Les grandes equipes
The champions

Une grande reunion
Eine grosse sportliche Veranstaltung
The main event
Ils sont les meilleures
Sie sind die Besten
These are the champions
Die Meister
Die Besten Les grandes equipes
The champions

I liked this version better, much more closer to reality.
