    Does anyone know the Elton John song Sky used for the Champions League ads around 2005/2006?

    I dunno who picks this crap but whoever it is needs to be sat down, talked to for an hour and then sacked.

    There was a time when SKY opened up with some blood rushing tunes and then they had some great VT segments - 2 that stick in my mind are Whatta Man for Eric Cantona and Nobody does it better for Alan Shearer back in 1995.

    It's at times like this that I wish I'd suggested a filter for new threads in the "How's our Driving?" thread

    Agree 100% but haven't Sky changed the music to one of Kasabians new songs? Really I could not care less what tune Sky play.

    In the case of the original, if it ain't broke, why fix it, comes to mind. The tune was absolutely right for football coverage.

    At least MOTD never made that mistake.

    Yeah they made a massive mistake by not keeping the original and not turning it into their tune. Every massive Sports programme has a signature tune, from the champions league to MOTD to the NFL's Monday Night Football. Super Sunday doesnt have an aura around it like other Sports programmes.
