James Corden and Dizzee Rascal took to the Britain’s got Talent stage tonight to give their first live performance of the brand new World Cup single ‘Shout.’

The unofficial England anthem was masterminded by BGT judge Simon Cowell, who reportedly phoned rapper Dizzee and gave him the idea for the collaboration.

The song, Shout, is a cover of 80s classic Shout by Tears For Fears and will be released early this Wednesday due to HUGE public demand. Our favourite lyrics have to be the line:

“Leave the WAGs alone/Set aside your ego/ We’re tired of bragging about 40-odd years ago.”

Way to make a point Dizzee!

We were expecting some sort of weird funnyman routine on tonight’s show, given James Corden burgeoning comedy career, however he really did sing and apart from the weird dance routine in the middle seemed to take the whole thing quite seriously. The weird thing was that Unreality TV are NOT football fans at all, in fact we’ve never even watched a World Cup match, but we found ourselves getting quite caught up in this tune tonight and could feel a bit of national pride and world cup fever building up. How strange is that!

All proceeds from the single are going to Great Ormand Street Hospital, so we might even buy ourselves a copy of it later this week. Did you enjoy James and Dizzee’s performance tonight? Leave your comments below.
