Yes. There are two New Order world cup songs. One was inspired by their sense of outrage and is one of the greatest pop songs ever written. The other was done for money and has rapping footballers on it.

From my favourite World Cup ever:

My next-door neighbour had this record, I remember him playing the living fuck out of it for the whole of the tournament.

 

And AW, you are pretty much on the money about Touched By The Hand Of God, easily among their best singles.

I saw Stan Boardman promoting that song on ITV1's The Mint when it came out. He was getting into some distintly dodgy racist areas so they kind of froze him out.

I can't believe no one's mentioned New Order's contribution to World Cup songs:

They already have, on this very page.

 

Edit: OK, the previous page now then.

 

Ah, I didn't see Echo post that - sorry!
