Celtic anthem named best song in football as it tops list of 'world famous' chants

A Celtic anthem has been named as the best song chanted by football fans worldwide.

The Hoops favourite, 'I Just Can't Get Enough' by Depeche Mode, topped a list compiled by the Spanish football site 90min en Español.

The site's new list ranks the top 12 chants sung by 'the most famous football fans across the globe'.

The song was placed ahead of the likes of 'Seven Nation Army' by Club Brugge fans, River Plate fans' 'Llega el domingo voy a ver al Campeón' and Real Madrid fans' 'Hala Madrid... y nada más', GlasgowLive reported.

The Depeche Mode chant also comes ahead of Liverpool fans' version of 'You'll Never Walk Alone', which took second place.

The football site introduced the list by writing: "In football there are several songs that are used by fans to encourage their team and thus help them to win even if things are not going well. These are some of the most famous chants in the world of football"...

To explain why they chose the chant as the best in the globe, they said: "In 90min we have decided that the first place goes to the fans of Celtic from Scotland, who show that their fans are not just a few hundred but the whole stadium who start a real party in the stands every time 'I Just Can't Get Enough' is blasted out.

"Everyone sings, everyone dances, everyone applauds, but no one stands still."

They also shared a video of 'The best 'I Just Can't Get Enough' ever' which took place at Parkhead back in February of 2011 when Celtic went 3-0 up against Rangers - which has been viewed over 4.5million times on YouTube.

The chant was started by the Green Brigade back in 2010 and quickly caught on with the rest of Celtic fans.
