Seven Seconds
Posted in Doctor Who, Lyrics, Music, Television, World Cup at 21:46 on 12 June 2010
I was watching Doctor Who so I didn’t catch the build up to tonight’s game. I switched over just in time to catch the kick-off.
And seven seconds later?
Mark it: seven seconds.
That’s all the time it took for the commentator (Clive Tyldesley?) to mention a certain event in 1966. I think that makes some sort of record.
Not as satisfying a record as the original 7 seconds, as by Youssou N’Dour and Neneh Cherry, which I append below for your pleasure.
7 seconds is, I believe, the only song to feature a lyric in Wolof to trouble the British charts.
