This Sunday at 2pm is the final to the 2010 World Cup.
While this is not the official theme song of the World Cup, this song has become the most popular and familiar song surrounding the gigantic soccer tournament.
It is called “Waving Flag” by K’naan. The lyrics are included in the video.
The great line in the song is “they will call me freedom just like a waving flag.” It reminds me of our National Anthem The Star Spangled Banner when it says
“And the rocket’s red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.
Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave?”
