\"(How Does it Feel to Be) on Top of the World?\" was the \"official song of the England national football team\" for the 1998 World Cup. It was credited to \"England United\" a supergroup consisting of Echo and the Bunnymen, Space, the Spice Girls and Ocean Colour Scene -- though the only member of the last group to feature was their lead vocalist Simon Fowler. It was overshadowed however by \"Three Lions 98\" and \"Vindaloo\". It was released on 2 CD single formats on the same day, the first featuring the standard versions of the song, including an instrumental. The second featuring remixes by Perfecto and an alternative instrumental version. The sleeve designs were of the white home kit (CD1) and the away red kit (CD2).
