Mark Viduka Hallelujah Song
Alistair Griffin has written a fantastic song about Mark Viduka, socceroo striker, to the tune of Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah" in a bid to convince Mark Viduka to re-sign with Middlesbrough.
Alistair Griffin said: “This song came about because I am passionate about football and music. Viduka is out of contract at the end of this season and I wanted to persuade him to stay on at Middlesbrough next season using a completely different approach - a song that shows him how important he is to the fans.
“Now, Middlesbrough Manager Gareth Southgate has embraced the tune as a way of raising money for his chosen charity, MacMillan Cancer Relief. As a result, the song will be one of the UK ’s first charity downloads and combines being a football fanatic with a great cause. It’s not my most important musical work but it has been great fun, especially if Viduka signs next season!”
For a short time it can be heard at http://www.myspace.com/alistairgriffinonline otherwise the fans’ anthem that has immortalised premiership footballer Mark Viduka will be made available to buy as a charity download at www.amazingtunes.com
