United Colours of Pop - Hanson: GO USA!!
TOTP Magazine - June '98
Are you into soccer?
IKE: We're not really up on the World Cup. I mean, who's playing? I don't even know
that!
ZAC: One thing I know for sure is we're not gonna win.
That's not very positive.
IKE: (Looking a tad gloomy.) Well, soccer's not really that huge in America, but I did play
when I was younger.
ZAC: Yeah, we all played soccer for a real long time.
TAY: Erm, I played for three years and Zac played for, like, three months.
ZAC: No, I played for five. I was mainly goalie or defender so I didn't get to score many
goals.
IKE: I was actually so bad on the pitch that I decided to become a ref. That was great. I
really enjoyed telling the coaches to calm down when they got a bit ratty. I'd say,'Hey,just
chill out, man!'
How competitive are you guys?
TAY: It depends how we feel and how well we can play on the day. We're good athletes if
we work at it...
ZAC:If we work at it!
TAY: ...but we haven't played sports in quite a while.
ZAC: We've forgotten a few of the rules!
IKE: We used to be good at basketball but now our girlfriends are better than us!
ZAC: That's as in 'friends who are girls!'
IKE: ...they're better than us.
TAY: (Head in hands.) It's so humiliating!
