With apologies to Hipsway, Capercaillie, Mull Historical Society, The Skids, Ballboy, Malcolm Middleton, Idlewild, Edwyn Collins, Bronski Beat, Texas, Wet Wet Wet (yeah, I know) and a shedload of other acts I could and probably should have included. (I'm sure they'll all be devastated.)

Sorry Kippers but you need a bit of AC/DC but whole heartedly approve of your last choice.
I played that in the pub before the 1998 Brazil match, we nearly tore the roof off the pub.
Sadly it will be a while before we reach another World Cup
Some disappointment therein.
No Lena Zavaroni, Andy Stewart nor Kenneth McKellar.
I may have squeezed in Amy MacDonald, Shirley Manson and KT Tunstall, but that's for different reasons.
Lena Zavaroni was Scottish? I had no idea. (As is apparent from the list, my 70s pop knowledge isn't up to much.)
Yeah Drew, '82 was a good year for World Cup songs all round.
Seriously, I thought Lena was great.
As I get older, her story seems more poignant to me.
See this performance ..

That's proper singing.
