Mark E Smith has, in the form of ‘Kicker Conspiracy’ and ‘Theme From Sparta FC’, been responsible for two of the greatest football songs of all time. Or should that be the greatest, given that all other football songs are shit. Anyway, he’s lent his vocals to a track called ‘England’s Heartbeat’ by Shuttleworth (sadly not John, that’d be something), a video for which has been unleashed on the internet this past weekend. Watch it below – and can you perhaps spot Smith’s motive for recording the track? A troupe of young children playing musical instruments, one of them brandishing a megaphone in very Smithian style. The Future Fall, perhaps? We should be told.
