Please NO !!!!!
Give it to some young new blood

The FAW have confirmed that Manic Street preachers will release the official Wales Euro 2016 song on 20th May 2016.
'Together Stronger (C'mon Wales)' celebrates past and present members of the squad, and all profits will go the Princes Gate trust.
It comes after a number of the team posted snaps with the legendary Manic Street Preachers in the team hotel, with microphones set up in the background.
Manager Chris Coleman said: "It was fantastic to be involved with such an iconic Welsh band.
"The Manic Street Preachers have been passionate Welsh football supporters and all the lads enjoyed the experience and joined in. It is also great to be supporting such worthwhile causes in the Princes Gate Trust and Tenovus Cancer Care."
It has been tradition in the past for national teams to record a song ahead of their appearance at a major tournament.
John Barnes famously teamed up with New Order to rap on 'World in Motion' ahead of Italia 90. The Liverpool legend beat off competition in his own squad from team-mates Peter Beardsley, Paul Gascoigne and Chris Waddle.
Wales will be more than confident they can match that smash hit, however, by uniting two Welsh cultural icons. The Manics, and Joe Ledley's beard.
It will certainly be a fitting way to celebrate Wales' first visit to a major tournament since 1958.

I think it's a great idea, the Manics can do something using the string section that worked so well on everything must go album.
We deserve something like that, it's a great occasion for us all
