All together now - The Farm

'All together now' was recorded by the Liverpudlian pop band The Farm on their album 'Spartacus' in 1990. Lyrically, the song was inspired by the Christmas Day Truce during World War I in 1914, when soldiers from both sides put their weapons down and met in no-mans-land to exchange gifts and play football. The song was produced by Suggs from Madness.

Originally released in November 1990, the single peaked at number 4 in the UK singles chart and number 7 in the Dutch Top 40.
