A musician asked people to join his rendition of ‘Three Lions’ and something magical happened
Composer and musician Nick Harvey thought he’d celebrate England’s win over Colombia by asking people on Twitter to join in with his take on Skinner and Baddiel’s Three Lions.
So it began with @MrNickHarvey posting this.

And slowly but surely something magical began to happen.

Would anyone else like to add to this thread? It would be wonderful to get some string players involved. Or some woodwind. An accordion perhaps? How about that most quintessentially English of instruments, the didgeridoo? https://t.co/S1IegwQcT2

An unexpected consequence of an England penalty shootout win – something nice happening on Twitter.
