OK, it's not really about golf, but then again what's Going For The One really about...? Answer known only to JA's "cosmic mind".
Both Golf Girl and Sporty Prog were in the Spice Girls......right??

I picked other for Rush Analog Kid........

As a hawk goes soaring by
The boy pulls down his baseball cap

I knew I had missed a few: notably Kraftwerk!!  I know this will upset many, but I still can't think of Rush as being 'prog' so their ditty about marathons never entered my thought process!  As for Nick Mason's 'Fictitious Sports', none of the songs on it relate to sport!  I had considered ELP's 'Fanfare for the Common Man' as that has been used by many a sports teams in grounds and stadiums over the years but again, it is not about 'sport'.

What about Queen's Bicycle Race? ;-) Oh well, it isn't prog in fact, but it's joyous ride (I think FM wrote it influenced by seeing Tour de France if I recollect it right).

Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!
