Background notes
Archive material and source history
Baddiel, Skinner and the Lightning Seeds came together through the British TV show Fantasy Football League. In 1996, comedians David Baddiel and Frank Skinner teamed up with Ian Broudie's pop band to write a song for the England football team ahead of the UEFA European Championship.
The result was Three Lions (Football's Coming Home), which topped the UK charts that year. The song's nostalgic lyrics and chorus captured something specific about English football hopes, becoming closely tied to the tournament England hosted.
Though some criticized its tone or saw it as a jinx, the track stuck around. They returned to it with updated versions like Three Lions 98, but that first recording is the one people remember when football tournaments roll around.
