Nigel Carr: “The song is a lament from a football fan, full of hope and roaring ambition,
while recognising the long wait every fan has endured over the years. Come On England
(You Better Believe It) recognises the incredible inspiration provided by the England Women’s football team, where, after ‘the Lions’ line, they are referred to as ‘The Esses’. The powerful chorus is both uplifting and inspirational. ‘Nothing Can Stop Us Now, You Better Believe It – Come On England, a proper terrace chant!”
