Read More With a massive summer of international football just around the corner, Glasgows most famous taxi driver, comic, and musician, John Colrain, has officially released the definitive soundtrack to Scotlands summer campaign: The Return of the Hampden Roar.
Available across all major streaming platforms starting today, the new single is a comedy-infused, passion-packed journey tracking the national teams dramatic road to the World Cup. Anchored by an infectious, arena-ready singalong hook, the track is already drawing comparisons to legendary Tartan Army anthems like On the March wae Allys Army.
John Colrain has long been a legendary figure on the streets of Glasgow, trading world-class "cab patter" and viral WhatsApp dad jokes for laughs behind the wheel. A regular on the local open-mic and comedy circuits—frequenting iconic spots like Dukes, Bloc, and The Butterfly and the Pig—Colrain has carved out a unique niche celebrating real Glasgow culture.
He is the mastermind behind underground local hits like The Glesga Rap, Glasgows Different Klass (By The Way), and his viral ode to the ultimate culinary staple: Mortons Buttered Rolls ("Ye canne whack em!").
Football, however, runs directly through Colrain DNA. His late father, John Colrain Sr., was a celebrated forward who played professionally in the UK, and Ireland. This deep-rooted footballing heritage shines through in his latest track, which perfectly captures the raw optimism, humour, and unyielding faith of the modern Scottish fan.
The Return of the Hampden Roar functions as both a tournament preview and a community rally cry. Packed with witty local references and a driving rhythm, the track builds toward a roaring, stadium-sized chant that will have the entire country shouting in unison:
"Scottttttttt McTominnnaaaaaayyyyyyyyyy..."
Whether you are driving a cab through the city centre, packing out a local pub, or catching flights to the tournament, this single is a mandatory addition to your summer playlist.
