Fans were lovingly chanting the track back in 2018 when England faced Russia in the World Cup.
The man behind the original lyrics, Andy McCluskey, previously revealed the band contemplated recording the Southgate version three years ago.
He said in 2018: ‘The Kittens are really chuffed and are actually considering remaking the single with the England lyrics.’
‘Any time something you’ve created becomes widely accepted is humbling and touching. I wonder who made that first connection by starting to sing it, and suddenly everyone was doing it.”
