A few months ago, British Sea Power issued the following message to fans: “The video for our new single ‘Who’s In Control?’ is set to be a raucous juxtaposition of sex and protest, party and revolt. We’re seeking any protest video imagery from fans – your ORIGINAL footage for the new video. If anyone has anything they’d like to share, please be in touch.’

This is the result, directed by Bajir Cannon and Bridget Palardy:

British Sea Power WHO'S IN CONTROL?

British Sea Power member and friends record World Cup Song 17/06/10 in British Sea Power

As we previously reported K’Naan has a UK number #1 with his World Cup song ‘Waving Flag‘, the similarity between this title and that of British Sea Power’sWaving Flags‘ has been the subject of much discussion.

As a result British Sea Power guitarist Noble is one of the men behind the last-minute 2010 World Cup tune Football (Kick It In The Goal).

Football (Kick It In The Goal) has been inspired by a stirring calypso tribute to an airport. The recording features Noble alongside Marc and Eamon of The Brakes and Darren and Matt from leading UK Jonathan Richman tribute act, The Modern Ovens.

The track can be downloaded for free here.

British Sea Power’s new album is due for release in 2011 and the band will be previewing new music online in the coming months.
