What about the Kelly Rowland track "Everywhere You Go" she has stated in many interviews that it is the official 2010 song. Im sure the artist isn't wrong. It is getting ready to be officially released and has had a video shot which will premier soon! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.0.57.15 ( talk) 01:28, 17 May 2010 (UTC)
A lot of the confusion and the contentions may be coming of what is actually official and what is commercially endorsed FIFA anthems of legal sponsors. Perhaps it would be a good idea to establish the truly official anthem in the primary chart and a secondary endorsed commercial anthems in a second listing on the same page, or creating an extra column where Official FIFA or commercially endorsed FIFA anthems is clarified.

"Argentine Melody (Cancion de Argentina)" by San Jose featuring Rodriguez Argentina (aka Rod Argent). This was released as a single (MCA 369) in Britaiin in June 1978 reaching #14 on the UK Singles Chart. I still have this 45 rpm vinyl. This is a nice intrumental piece.

La cour des grands (Do you mind if I play) - Youssou N' Dour & Axelle red

It was officially the earliest ever or FIRST major FIFA World Cup theme song when the World Cup was held in England, 1966AD!!! :-) I initially came across that from the FIFA's official website through its search box. Until now there is still NO legitimate article regarding that song into this Wikipedia, but the title suggests that it is a redirect to the FIFA mascots page. Maybe is there anyone who can change and expand it? It is actually a song about the first official mascot at that time id est a lion, of course. See below for more information:
The song is in Portuguese and English and not Spanish and English. Portuguese is the official language of Brazil. Jgsodre ( talk) 04:54, 12 March 2014 (UTC)

Firstly, This article only have FIFA World Cup official song and anthems like FIFA World Cup official films and FIFA World Cup official mascots But Many other songs and anthems - company promotional songs, tracks from FIFA albums, World Cup broadcast theme songs added in the table.
If lists all songs and anthems about respective FIFA World Cup. One World Cup have more 100 songs and anthems all over the world. Table in the article became more chaotic. Therefore split and arrangement is needed. Footwiks ( talk) 05:36, 13 October 2022 (UTC)

Official Songs at recent FIFA World Cups™ have included 'Un’estate italiana' by Edoardo Bennato and Gianna Nannini in 1990, 'Gloryland' by Daryl Hall with Sounds of Blackness in 1994, and 'La Copa de la Vida' by Ricky Martin in 1998. In 2002, the Official Song was “Boom” by Anastacia, while Vangelis’ vocal official anthem featured typical Korean and Japanese sonic elements. In 2006, 'The Time of Our Lives' by the Il Divo quartet was a resounding success. Shakira’s 'Waka Waka (This Time for Africa)' was the Official Song of the 2010 FIFA World Cup™ in South Africa and, most recently, 'We Are One (Ole Ola)' was the Official Song of the 2014 FIFA World Cup™ in Brazil.
Definitely there were genuine official songs and anthems by FIFA in each World Cup.
You look misunderstood about definition of official anthems and songs.
For example
I really know and remember that Wavin' Flag was more famous and popular than 2010 FIFA World Cup Official songs and anthems at that time. Maybe some people still misunderstood that Wavin' Flag is the official song of 2010 FIFA World Cup until today.
But Many readers want to find out genuine official songs and anthems of each World Cup. This is a kind of World Cup record and history like FIFA World Cup official films and FIFA World Cup official mascots and FIFA World Cup official match balls.
Besides Wikipedia have to convey accurate and clear information to readers.
Therefore, article need 2 tables - table about official songs and anthems / table about other songs like Italian article Footwiks ( talk) 07:35, 13 October 2022 (UTC)

I have all Official FIFA World albums from 1994 to 2014. One album have average 15 songs. In your logic, Do we have to list all songs in this article? Tracks from World Cup albums and promotional songs and broadcast theme. There are too many songs related to each World Cup. So two table are needed. Footwiks ( talk) 02:39, 16 October 2022 (UTC)
A user has came question the way the posts are put, in a way each events has their own songs but in another side, World Cup is known for having various songs, even many official ones, for a same tournament
How the list should be done? it needs to be divided?

If we list songs just related to World Cup, Too many songs inculding trivial songs. Wikipedia 's article and contents need notablity. Footwiks ( talk) 07:54, 16 October 2022 (UTC)
