Timewasting: MLS Back Catalogue – Musicals

Every few weeks we bring you “MLS Back Catalogue”, where AFTN revisits artists’ discographies, authors’ bibliographies and different genres of music, books, films or whatever, all re-imagined with the current and recent players and managers of Major League Soccer.

And all done in a full ‘Top of the Pops’ style top ten countdown.

We always think that life is better when accompanied by song. It works on Broadway, in the West End and on screen. Why talk, when you can sing?! Why sit quietly and watch football, when you can stand and chant?!

With this in mind, our MLS Back Catalogue today delves into the world of Musicals….

Football and musicals certainly seem to be happy bedfellows.

Montreal Impact fans even have the perfect musical already written for their inaugural MLS season – “Les Miserables”.

“The Miserable Ones” indeed!
