To be fair, in the context of a song, you need to know the fuller context to realize it.
And you know who one of the kids who was killed was?
No.
It was Ozzy Adela's nephew.
Is that right?
He was a pilot, yeah.
Okay.
I don't think he was trained.
Yeah, but it predates the Falcons.
The Falcons obviously intensify it.
Yeah.
But if you look back to when they first met in 1951 at Wembley, what you see very clearly is there's an almost Oedipal relationship there.
So the thing that occurred to me was you have... If anybody has studied Latin American literature, there's a clear process whereby you have these former colonies...
who suddenly become better.
You know, mid-20th century, magic realism, Marquez people, Borges, people like that, are doing literature better than the Spanish, and they're exporting it back to the metropole.
And that is this real Oedipal...
And in football, it is Argentina to England, exactly the same.
So, yeah, Argentina was never formally colonized by Britain, but it was a sort of informal colony.
Britain ran the banking system, it ran the railway network, the French owned the docks, but basically Britain was making a lot of money out of Argentina.
There was a lot of British businessmen went over there.
