Why do England fans sing Sweet Caroline during the Euro 2020 final?
In the lead up to Englands match against Italy on Sunday, football anthems have swamped the charts. The song Three Lions (Footballs Coming Home) by Baddiel, Skinner, and The Lightning Seeds, which has been playing since Englands victory over Denmark, has climbed into the top five of the charts ahead of the Euro 2020 final at Wembley. According to the Official Charts Company, it is now at number four in the charts, up from number 22 last week. Weve all been singing Three Lions incorrectly and committing major lyrical errors. Sweet Caroline, Neil Diamonds 1971 tune that has become an unofficial anthem of the tournament and was sung on the pitch by spectators and players following the win on Wednesday, re-enters at 48. Sweet Caroline, unlike Three Lions, does not have any football-related lyrics. Many people were perplexed as to why England fans sang it. Sweet Caroline has long been a popular song in the United States, and it has also been a great hit in the boxing industry in this country. It has now expanded to football, particularly among England supporters. Its anthemic song for big groups, with the added so good, so good, so good to the middle of the chorus, is one of the reasons for its popularity, according to CoventryLive. After the win over Germany, Wembley DJ Tony Parry reportedly decided to play Sweet Caroline, which turned out to be a wonderful idea. In the post-match press conference following Germanys victory, Three Lions manager Gareth Southgate acknowledged this, saying, You cant beat a piece of Sweet Caroline!

The complete text of the lyrics  I have no idea where it all started. But I know its becoming stronger. It was in the spring, and the spring had turned into the summer. Hands in contact with each other Reaching out, putting a hand on me, putting a hand on you  Caroline is a lovely lady. Never before have good times seemed so lovely. I used to think theyd never do it, but now Im not so sure. Take a look at the darkness. The summary comes to a close.
