Every two years, the safe home for the gays that are the music charts and bombarded by the straights as a barrage of football songs come out to celebrate the World Cup and/or Euros. This week on The 2000s Chart Show, it's the Euros 2004, and the straights were celebrating with a "footie" spin on Come on Eileen, a slightly dog whistle-sounding single featuring The Libertines and Supergrass and a song about World War One.
