Help Haiti ... buy this record
THE Sun's Helping Haiti single was finished late on Saturday night - and it's a cracker.
Mogul SIMON COWELL spearheaded the globe-spanning project which features 21 of the planet's premier pop stars - and he gave me an exclusive listen early on Sunday.
The likes of KYLIE MINOGUE, MARIAH CAREY, JAMES BLUNT and ALEXANDRA BURKE all donated their time for free to record a cover of REM's moving Everybody Hurts.And the results are impressive.
The effort has got the support of songwriter MICHAEL STIPE who said: "How could we not say yes to this appeal?
"We're honoured to play even a small role in trying to help."
In the slideshow above I exclusively reveal which lines each of the stars sing.
The ballad begins with a tender couplet from LEONA LEWIS before ROBBIE WILLIAMS brings it to a brilliant close five and a half minutes later.
In between there are contributions from a stellar line-up including ROD STEWART, CHERYL COLE, MIKA, GARY BARLOW and two of the JLS lads.
The recording was overseen by super-producer STEVE ROBSON, who has worked with TAKE THAT, and the project was pulled together in little over a week.
It is released next Sunday and I hope to see it at the upper end of the charts the following week.
Pre-order the Haiti single now from HMV by clicking on this link.
The song is available to download next Sunday and in the shops the day after.
The track will get its debut airing on radio breakfast shows nationwide tomorrow from 8am.
