160w ago - VidZone's Head of Production Ben Creasey has posted this week's PlayStation 3 update today, which showcases World Cup Fever in VidZone as follows:

Here at VidZone Towers we are as excited as the rest of the world about the upcoming World Cup... it excites us even more because it gives us the chance to feature all the amazing footy songs from over the years!

So... What we were thinking... was... that maybe you could send us the names of your favourite football anthems... Just to make sure we have all of them. That ok? Coooool.

My personal favourite football song lyric of all time, John Barnes... Anfield Rap... "I come from Jamaica, my name is John Barnes When I do my thing the crowd go bananas"... Genius.

We also have a very cool Dan Le Sac Celebrity Playlist - featuring videos from Fever Ray, Dead Prez and Bomb The Bass and a intro video from the guys which they filmed just for us... Which is nice.
