One such gem is a whistler's favourite anthem 'Young Folks'. FIFA 07 Muse - 'Supermassive Black Hole'įIFA 07 probably has the weakest soundtrack of any FIFA game, so we've gone for Muse's 'Supermassive Black Hole' here.ĭoes anyone even like Muse? FIFA 08 Peter Bjorn and John - Young FolksįIFA 08 wasn't a complete return to form for the FIFA soundtrack, but it did contain a few gems. Either way, you'll be singing along to the chorus, even if you're saying "My style is the bomb-dididong-dideng-dideng-diggy-diggy" instead of the actual lyrics. It helps that the song is utterly mad and you can't understand it at all. 'Cobrastyle' is the song which can transport you right back to FIFA 06, more so than Bloc Party's 'Helicopter' and Hard-Fi's 'Gotta Reason'. Mad Cobra - 'Cobrastyle'Īnother Swedish smash, but surprisingly not a noise rock anthem. However, for long-lasting impact (which 'Blue Monday' already had before being put on FIFA), The Streets win the day. 'Fit But You Know It' had some tough competition, with New Order's 'Blue Monday' shoehorned onto the soundtrack alongside Scissor Sisters' 'Take Your Mama'. Mike Skinner's project had already released one of the greatest albums of the decade two years previous with Original Pirate Material, but FIFA gave a new generation of kids an introduction to the Birmingham's prophetic son. 'Fit But You Know It' has a different relationship to the franchise than the aforementioned 'Jerk It Out'. FIFA Football 2005 The Streets - 'Fit But You Know It' Although the song took on a life of its own after the game's release, it's indelibly linked to the franchise to this day.

This title is the starting point as not only is it one of the franchise's best entries, but it's the first game in the franchise that had individual pop songs. So, with memories and games consoles our only salvation during these times, there's no time like the present to give you a 'definitive' rundown of the best song from each FIFA soundtrack since FIFA 98. With FIFA's soundtrack ringing in the ears of every football-loving gamer each year, the briefest note of a song can invoke nostalgia of days gone by. The likes of Billie Eilish and The 1975 may have been destined for superstardom, but their placement on the FIFA soundtrack certainly played a part in their arrival at music's top table. Not only is the game the most popular football simulation around, but its soundtrack has also been lauded for platforming some of music's brightest stars before their blow-up. Seeing as we're just two months from the release of FIFA 23 - the final FIFA - we figured it was a good time to look back on the best tracks to grace the best football game.
