literally another aussie in london

Where the heart is

No, this is not about Natalie Portman.

This is about the new football, soccer, team that is in Melbourne.

They are called Melbourne Heart. I assume because of a bet.

If the name is stupid, they have taken stupid to a whole new level with their song.

I must admit I have not listened to it all, but only because I just couldn’t.

I mean, for fuck’s sake, it starts with a fucken heart beat.

A heartbeat.

The whole thing is some sort of sick meta-joke that people will only work out in 20 years, like we did with the 80s.

I wouldn’t care normally, sporting teams have been calling themselves stupid things for years, but this one has Melbourne in it, so I expected a higher standard.

This is the shit song.

There are two A league teams in Melbourne, the other one is called Victory.

I never really warmed to them, until I heard this song.
