agree completely. ricky martin's WC official song is too iconic & catchy 
i would wanna put Knaan - Wavin Flag as second best, but that's not even official WC song unfortunately.. just Coca-Cola ad song

I pick Vangelis - Anthem Fifa World Cup 2002 simply because its the first time I've really watch all match in hype mode and this song burn into my head. Nothing more memory nostalgic then watching with friends and yell in the middle of the night. After that moment everyone move on to their own lives liao. Its the only spot and moment we share space tgt. Every time this song play its like time travel back to that moment, every bits of detail is re-triggered.

I jump state, after that people slowly stop contacting, back then only a few can afford a computer for ICQ. Friend is a funny experience to me ... when you are in the zone its like bff for life , once you are out of the zone its total strangers until you either bump into them or receive an invitation .... wedding or funeral. Use to be kind of a big deal and question why .... but after growing up this don't rly bother me anymore. That's life.
100% sure there are matches in the middle of the night, before 16 strong, during 16 strong.

Its the only year I kept record of all the year, month , day ... and all match record on a booklet.
