The BBC has launched a campaign to get the nation singing Neil Diamond's Sweet Caroline to celebrate the Queen's Platinum Jubilee. After the tragedy of the Boston Marathon Bombings in 2013, Diamond turned up at the stadium to sing Sweet Caroline to fans at the first match following the terrorist attack. The song is an audience participation classic, with the crowd singing 'dum-dum-dum' after the words 'Sweet Caroline' in the chorus and 'so good, so good, so good' after 'good times never seemed so good'. 'We'll be doing everything we can to get Sweet Caroline ringing out all over the country on 5 June.'
