I was in Iraq 05-06 with the United States Army. And after a long day of fighting we settled down with some Iraqi soldiers for a few hours. And one of the Iraqi soldiers asked me and few other US soldiers if we liked this song. Here i was thousands of miles from home in a war zone in probably one of the most dangerous places on the planet. Somebody from Iraq asked me if I know sweet Caroline. The song.

@@leecox6241 I think that is a myth. Caroline was only about 12 yrs old at the time. He wrote it about his wife but may have changed the name. I'll google to find out true story.
I remember when "Born in the USA" was played in Wellington New Zealand at a 7 aside international rugby tournament and every single person in the crowd sung as if they were indeed well and truly, born in the heart of America, it was quite magic and everyone there was entirely ONE for but a few minutes.
Isn't it amazing how a song and lyrics cross over and speak to so many different peoples and cultures. We need to hear and experience more of these sort of examples of people coming together in love and friendship. Certainly made my day!

This was awesome. I too am from the US and did not know this took place in England. I was well aware that they love their football and I knew they can get a little crazy at times but this actually brought a tear to my eyes. Way to go!! Our brothers and sisters across the pond doing it up right. Almost makes we want to go to a football/soccer game.
This is nothing. It's mordern football. Very sterile, sanitised, and corporate. This atmosphere is pretty tame and boring. International football is being abandoned by real working-class fans.
If you want to hear goosebump producing singing at a football match you should hear the Welsh fans singing the Welsh national anthem at an international match. Hope this link works for you.

@@ftroop2000 now before i make an actual comment i mean no offence. I think Englands problem is you guys are only interested in major tournaments. When you look at smaller countries, (and to be fair, countries that are more shit like my own country Ireland) they are more likely to be more interested in their team no matter the result. Of course i get mad at my countrys performance but i always come back to watch because you never know whats going to happen. English fans expect to be at the top and if england do shit, they rant and rave about “the good ol’ days of ‘66” despite the fact that most of them weren’t around for it😂. What i’m trying to say is i feel that the problem you said above is only with bigger teams. All irish games have this kind of atmosphere and most end up getting a better atmosphere as well.
@Mark Hepworth here look it, i wasnt trying to brag but what i meant in my comment was just about the general fans. Its hard to say as an irishman but i respect you and the other 15,999 fans because of the fact that ye follow your nation every match. The English public let ye down with rioting and not following the team all year round.
@@tommurphy3673 this is some random ass comment but im just curious. Do most of the people you know think us english are cunts? Personally i think ireland is pretty cool and many of my close friends have ties to Ireland in some capacity. Always wished our countries got on better. Always wanted a split between northern Ireland scotland and wales with a mutual pact for freedom of movement and trade/military allies i feel like we all share so much history,some good some bad
This was played at my mum’s funeral, she love this song from seeing him in American at a concert, make’s me have shivers, Godbless you mum for making it an anthem we can all sing to with such pride and memories 😀
the singer must be really proud for his song to be played in almost all major sporting events. I also love this song and whenever i meet someone who's name is caroline, id forever address her as "sweet caroline".
Very cool! I've seen that, and sung that tune many times at sporting events in the USA, but never imagined that it was a practice in other parts of the world. I picture Neil as only popular in America (for some unknown reason).
We will never forget this summer! We were on holiday and every night the football was on, they had the big TV outside at the beer garden, children's playground behind and an outdoor swimming pool. We had the best time ever, so many good memories
I'm Italian but I really like sweet Caroline sung at Wembley. Here in Rome, a boy wanted to pay homage to England, which was a good opponent, by playing from the balcony of his home in Piazza Navona. One of the most beautiful squares in Europe. In conclusion you hate each other more among you from the various regions of the UK than we do!
If I were Niel Diamond, I would be honored and humbled to hear thousands of people singing the song I wrote and performed for so many years! Man is mortal, but good songs live forever and Niel Diamond had many good songs!
In 2005 we drove across the United States from Cincinnati to Houston Texas. of course we made a stop in New Orleans. and as I dozed by the pool between the tall buildings, this song popped into my head. now after 17 years I remember this one every time. nice relaxing day back. Thank you very much.
One, touching one Reaching out, touching me, touching you Sweet Caroline Good times never seemed so good I've been inclined To believe they never would.
Io sono romano, e tifoso della Roma, l'unica squadra inglese che amo è il Nottingham Forest 🌳❤️🖤. Detto questo voi siete il tifo migliore in assoluto, mi dispiace tantissimo avervi tolto la Coppa, ma purtroppo nel calcio c'è chi vince e c'è chi perde! Comunque sempre il massimo rispetto x la vostra nazionale!
Per ciò che è successo all'esterno dello Stadio, con disordini vari e tricolore italiano calpestato, inno italiano fischiato dall'inizio alla fine( da notare che gli italiani invece hanno applaudito l'inno inglese)non mi dispiace per nulla...anzi,doveva andare così...detto questo, all'interno dello stadio( a parte l'aver fischiato l'inno)invece, atmosfera fantastica e bellissimo sostegno ad opera di entrambe le tifoserie...
This makes me want to go to Rome and play this song from a balcony and sing out top of my lungs this song and 3 lions does this for me brings my patriotic side out and passion for England makes me quite proud to be British
this day didnt turn out how us england fans wanted it to but this day surely was one of my best days of my life brilliant atmosphere as always from us,this team will come back stronger for the world cup in 6 months time to bring it home
Deserved it? Definitely not. Pointing a laser pointer at the danish keeper. And all the racist comments on Saka and Sancho after they missed their penalties. And making jokes about the crying girl on social media. England did not deserve it at all.
