For me it has to be either Moloko - The Time Is Now or Kasabian - Club Foot. Saw the Moloko one earlier and it just brings back so many memories. That's probably my favorite, when Super Sunday was actually Super Sunday...

The Time is now easily the best one, but my opinion is probably influenced by nostalgia and that time being my favourite period for football, which is probably influenced by United being the best in the world.
Felt like the league was more fun back then. Less tactical instruction and more mavericks.
The Time is now has a sort of salsa or samba beat which pairs well with the more maverick style players

They used to Texas - Inner Smile for the carling cup at one point


Also I like Celeste - Stop this Flame

Wasn't used as a Sky Sports intro, but in the build up to a match they used Athlete - You Got The Style which was really well cut together.

Also in the van Gaal summer when we signed Blind, the did a pretty cool vignette with all our signings to Imagine Dragons - Radioactive that I always remember.

They used to do some really cool little segments like that.

Always loved the Ronaldo Terminator one

Remember they used to have the cheerleaders when it first started with sky?
yeah. i remember they even had women with their tits out after the game, (if you waited until 10pm and turned it to babestation.)

Alive & Kicking and the Sean Bean String for Yasmine 1 for me!

Although the Alive & Kicking looks like an advert for a gay chat line looking back on it! :D

Winner by a mile. Brings back so many good memories.
I didn’t have sky at the time so I used to go to my grandfather’s house to watch every Super Sunday game .

Also....'Stiltskin - Inside' for those north of the border was a hell of a tune!

Written in the stars genuinely added to the excitement and anticipation of the game you were about to watch. As soon as the intro hit, it put you in the mood for footy. It really added to the spectacle.
