Cover art for La gente vuole il gol lyrics by Elio E Le Storie Tese

The unofficial national anthem for the Euro 2000 soccer tournament, this song – which borrows its melody from one of the band's old faves, "Ùnanimi" – was only released as a single.

There is an ironic reference to the members of the Italian team, who can't remember the words to the "real" anthem, but that's a minor gripe since what the people actually want from them is that they score a bloody goal!
