soccer cup in the UK. The song was re-released two years later for the
World Cup '98 in France and became a huge hit once again. The video for
the re-release featured fellow singer Robbie Williams.
Said that he came up with the name The Lightning Seeds from having misheard the line "The thunder drowns out what the lightning sees" in Prince's "Raspberry Beret.".
