Yes, Lox is right: just looked in my RWC Anthem Book and "Ireland's call" is the one that's sung. Though I have to disclaim any credit for the singing, I haven't done any of the Ireland matches yet: having passed the audition and got signed up, you are allocated to specific matches. In Wellington, there's a pool of about 100 singers, who sing in different combinations - always 30 singers per match. And it's the same in Auckland and Dunedin and the other centres.

But the Aucklanders get the best deal: 3 out of 4 quarter finals, all the semis and the final itself are at Eden Park, so I won't get a look in. But it has been great fun so far!
