These
entitled "3 Lions"
are the heraldic
beasts
that grace the breasts
of the badged :
ENGLAND - Three Lions on a Shirt
(and badgered
?) England
Soccer Team's members
as well as the threads of their steadfast
<same-shirt-sporting>
(probably beer
not port-supping)
(supple ?) sup(-)porters.

Three Lions Origin ~
The .logo.
(adapted from a .design.
(initially on
the arms of Crusader King Richard
the Lionheart)
was brought to the fore of public consciousness
in the following chart-topping song that
was first
recorded and released when
Euro '96 was staged
and contested on native Englishsoil.

These edits
vary slightly, the former has
pre-.Tournament.foot.age.,
the latter is
from after the event.
~
Insight into the Not In Sight ~
Curious that these .singers.
appear to be another trio, and yet, at tea-time
there isn't a ".Trio."
in sight. Meanwhile Kellogg's
Corn Flakes are
clockable on the kitchen counter.

Football Songs ~
.Football..Songs.
do not always have to be
so directly ABOUT "the
beautiful game".
"Nessun
Dorma" from Giacomo
Puccini's .opera."Turandot"
became a [HUGE HIT]
((")Number2(")
(and that's about right))
as a result of the BBC
choosing and using
it as the .theme.
for its .coverage.
of the
Italia '90.World
Cup Tournament..
~
Nessun Dorma ~
The eponymous heroine of the
<3
Act .Opera.>
has
<3.Riddles.>
solved by Càlaf,
a <suitor> (who apparently doesn't
<suit her>),
this hero then has to
<".marry."
Russian
Roulette to Rumpelstiltskin>
dragging a dutiful game through
an awful all-nighter
before he can
dis.miss..Miss's.,
.miss.es
and make her
his lawful ".Mrs..."
"All'alba vincerò ! Vincerò !
Vincerò !"
meaning :
"At dawn I will win ! I will win ! I will win !",
closes Càlaf's crepuscular .chorusing..
~
The Three Tenors ~
Here it is - celebrated, in Concert, (and in .tune.
(if not in Consett
or in Tunisia))
by the collective
called the "3 Tenors"
- a thrilling, .trilling.trio
(not a .Trio.
(")comp.osed.(")
and comprised of 2.singing..Spainiards.
and
1.intoning..Italian.
- the
<GLEESOME THREESOME>
of : José
Carreras, Plácido
Domingo
and Luciano
Pavarotti.
The
Three Tenors Perform
"Nessun Dorma" in Rome, 1990 :
Luciano's
particular connection with soccer
was that, in youth, he had had ambitions
to become a .professional
goalkeeper..
(He perspired
and) it transpired that
a
different sort of ".perfect
pitch."
was to
out-weigh his formative
fixation with
the .football
field..
~
(Take) (Musical) Note ~
The vigilant .chanting.,
for a desired victory,
of the 3-times-implored
"I will win !"
struck a vocalised c(h)ordof accord
with the terraced tribes.
