Like McCarthy, getting the call that her song ‘Two Seater’ was going to FC 24 Coins be included on the soundtrack to FC 22 was a bucket list moment for Willow Kayne, not that she really thought it was something she’d ever be able to tick off. “It’s a really big deal for me,” she tells NME in the days after winning the Ivor Novello Rising Star Award. The song got pitched to FC but that was as far as she thought things would get. “To be fair though, when it was released I had people saying ‘Two Seater’ is such a FC song’ so I guess they were right.”

“It’s really cool to reach people who have never heard of you before,” she continues. Not that everyone is a fan. “Someone did a TikTok about the FC soundtrack using ‘Two Seater’ and I commented, ‘OMG that’s my song’. I got bombarded by kids saying it was shit but I’m the one on the soundtrack so…”

“I’m just happy to be part of it. For me, it was a bit of reassurance that Im doing alright. I feel like I can actually call myself a musician now, which is cool. I needed that.”

“Everyone aware of FC growing up so to be on it, it’s massive,” says Yard Act’s vocalist James Smith. ”It also one of the things you can tell your mum about and she understands that youre doing alright. That, and you can brag to all your mates from school about it as well.”

When they signed to Island Records, Yard Act were asked about their ambitions. They said about FC and Tony Hawk but were told “don’t get your hopes up” since FC 22 was out in six weeks. However it was confirmed later that week that ‘’The Overload’ would be included, the band just had to edit out all the swear words. “We still didn’t think it would happen, even though we were explicitly told it would. That’s how we approach everything though cheap FCUT 24 Coins . That way, we’re always pleasantly surprised.”
