A SONG recorded with Penketh High School pupils has the most pre-release sales of any World Cup song.

We Are England, by the band Ricky, features a repeated chant of 'Easy' which is performed by children from Penketh and other places across the country.

The single is number one in the HMV pre-sales chart, outselling the official World Cup song by Embrace.

Ricky is calling for people to buy and download the song in a bid to push it to the number one spot.

Jim Lines, lead singer, said: "It would be great for a new band, which has involved children throughout England in this project, to steal the show."
