It perfectly describes how it is to be an England fan (typically): the hope, the passion, the desire for England to finally put their demons to rest and to get one over on the Germans and whoever else. And then when they fail and England let us down, we cry and moan about it only to go through it all again 2 years later in the next tournament. English fans are an emotionally driven bunch, everyone is on the edge of the seats praying England don’t let them down this time, it’s embedded into us that at some point England will “blow it away and throw it away”. Hopefully with England beating Germany 2-0 this week, we have overcome some of this doubt and fear amongst the fans.

In 1996 I was 31 (believe it or not) I had distant memories of 1970! so I witnessed most of The Thirty Years of Hurt ... as metioned in this video it takes a fan's point of view, looking back at 66 and "THROUGH THE YEARS" all our hopes and dreams dashed yet with a overiding vision of HOPE I am not ashamed to say ... sometimes when I watch the video or hear the song a tear drops from my eye and my voice breakes as I sing all of it ... because I witnessed All Those Years of Hurt To end on a Positive Note "Its Coming Home" meant two things 1, The tourmanant came "Home" to England and ... 2, We can bring The Cup Home for Us!.

My 30 years were experienced from the release of this song maybe it was telling me something 😂

love baddiel and skinner, what a great song… every england fan can relate and that’s why it’s so so perfect!

I think there are a number of key things to it’s success, most of which are covered in this great video. 1996 was this generation defining time in English culture; not just football, but music and film and general celebrity. A fresh generation, united by this prosperity, dreamed to hope the summer of their youth could and would be the same galvanising experience as their parents had in ‘66. Further, the song tells the story of the football fan through the ages, who ride the ups and downs of their team and live every success and failure with fatalist optimism that this weekend, next weekend, this year and next might be their time. More, as English football exploded back onto the European and world scene following the ban in the mid-to-late 80s, and as the premier league boomed, a country of passionate fans who normally existed in silos could come together under one solitary flag. This was the anthem that bound them together.

No one has mentioned how beautiful the music itself is. The orchestral arrangement and horns give it more of a bittersweet yet hopeful feel, which is what it feels like to be English.

No matter how shit we are going into a tournament, this song makes me believe...before the crippling depression

A crucial element was England having that really good run at Euro '96, if we'd crashed out of a group that Scotland got through instead, '3 Lions' would have been remembered as an alright song that never got heard much again. An indelible moment from that summer came ahead of the semi-final, when English AND German fans sang it coming up Wembley Way.

Yeah. And then Italy's Leo Bonucci comes along, and before all in attendance at Wembley Stadium and football fans around the world, screams "IT'S COMING TO ROME" after the Three Lions shits it on spot kicks in the Euro 2020 Final. Damn.

They got to the semis in 96 for one reason. They where hosts pure and simple.

Stuart Pearce....."Physco" in the song, that made my day. Some of us have longer memories of Football that hurt....1986, Hand of God?

coming from Australia, I was there in 96 watching matches, including the ill fated Southgate miss(legends the business sung a great song about that!). But I know 30 years has a good ring to it but it was only 28 years of hurt, up till 96, since England were world champions in 66.... and still the football toast of the world, until Euro 68..... when Italy were crowned European Champion.

It's coming home lads!

"Lad culture" wasn't invented in the 90s. It had been around for ages. It was just the first time it had really been recognised and reflected in the media, which before then kind of bracked people into "kids - teenagers - adults". James Brown was only at Loaded for the first couple of years, back when it used to be a decent magazine, with a lot to read in it. It then descended into the race to the bottom which culminated in crap like Nuts and Zoo being major players in the 'lads mags' of the day.
