Tell him to look up the song on Wikipedia (In Popular Culture section)...
Football chant for the Celtic F.C.
In 2009 the song was adapted as a football chant by fans of Celtic F.C., specifically the Green Brigade fans. [13]
In an interview with football website Goal.com, Depeche Mode keyboardist Andrew Fletcher commented on the use of the song by Celtic fans: "We feel honoured that the Celtic faithful are chanting our songs and are touched by it. The best thing is that they know the entire lyrics."[14]
The football chant was also sung by Thai children from the The Good Child Foundation also known as the Thai Tims, made up of children suffering from Down Syndrome. The song had been taught to them by Reamonn Gormley, a young Celtic youth team player and avid Celtic fan from Blantyre who had gone to Thailand as a volunteer English language teacher for Good Child Foundation and would use English songs to teach English to them, including, amongst others, Celtic chants. Gormley was stabbed to death upon his return to Blantyre on 1 February 2011. He was just 19. The Thai Tims' videotaped tribute version of "Just Can't Get Enough" citing "Reamonn [Gormley], Jinky Johnstone and Tommy Burns will be smiling down from heaven on all of us" went viral.[15] In memory of Reamonn Gormley, Celtic FC and Celtic Charity Fund released it as a charity single on 8 May 2011[16] with proceeds going to the Good Child Foundation in Thailand and Crime Stoppers in Scotland.[17] It reached #30 on the UK Singles Chart.
Adaptations for other football clubs
As it grew in popularity, the song was adapted by fans of other football teams. One of those teams was English Championship side Burnley.[18] In February 2011, starting with the 3–2 home win over Aston Villa, Premier League club Bolton Wanderers began to use the song when a goal was scored at the Reebok Stadium.[19] Also in February 2011, Liverpool supporters adopted the song as a tribute and encouragement for the club's new Uruguayan attacker Luis Suárez. Asked about the Liverpool supporters' adoption of the song, Depeche Mode's Andrew Fletcher, in spite of being a supporter of rival club Chelsea, acknowledged their creativeness: "It's breathtaking to see the enthusiasm in the stands when they're chanting the song." Finally, he explained that bandmate David Gahan also followed Chelsea, while Martin L. Gore is a fan of Arsenal F.C."[14][20]
It became a chant even in "de Kuip" sung by the Feyenoord audiences.
Following Craig Mackail-Smith's transfer from Peterborough, Brighton & Hove Albion fans started singing the chant. -

* me off when I hear other supporters singing our songs, back handed compliment for our support but it's the ignorance that comes along with it which grinds my gears.
