Guy Chambers' top 5 tips for songwriters: "I think if songs are good they will find a home"

“Then, on Robbie's last album, The Heavy Entertainment Show, we must have written… I wouldn't want to say a number, but we wrote a lot of songs to get to the few that ended up on the record. I think if songs are good they will find a home, but I think, if you’re a young songwriter, you mustn't be disheartened by the fact that maybe only one in 10 of your songs gets used, or it could be one in 20. It could even be one in 50. It’s quality, not quantity - always, always, always.

BBC One and BBC Children in Need reveal track list and release date for all-star album Got It Covered

Following an exclusive announcement on The Zoe Ball Breakfast Show on BBC Radio 2 this morning, BBC One and BBC Children in Need have today confirmed the hotly anticipated Children in Need: Got It Covered album will be released on Friday 1 November in conjunction with Silva Screen Records.
The album, in aid of BBC Children in Need, is an exciting new venture for the charity this year and features a glittering line-up of some of the UK’s most critically-acclaimed actors from stage and screen who have banded together to help make a positive difference to the lives of disadvantaged children and young people throughout the UK.

A special 90-minute programme showcasing the entire recording process will be broadcast on BBC One ahead of the annual BBC Children in Need Appeal show later this year, featuring exclusive behind-the-scenes action, special guest appearances and much more.

Full album track list is as follows:

Helena Bonham Carter CBE has covered Both Sides Now by Joni Mitchell
Jim Broadbent has covered Blue Moon by Rogers and Hart
Olivia Colman CBE has covered Glory Box by Portishead
Shaun Dooley has covered Never Grow Up by Taylor Swift
Luke Evans has covered Smile by Charlie Chaplin
Suranne Jones has covered Symphony by Clean Bandit
Adrian Lester OBE has covered I Wish by Stevie Wonder
Himesh Patel has covered All These Things That I’ve Done by The Killers
David Tennant has covered Sunshine on Leith by The Proclaimers
Jodie Whittaker has covered Yellow by Coldplay
Plus a special group cover of It Must Be Love by Labi Siffre
The album is now available for pre-order on the BBC Children in Need website.

Each track was carefully crafted and recorded at the legendary recording studios, Abbey Road and Rak Studios in London, whilst the actors received expert guidance and mentoring from Brit and Mercury award-winning record producers and songwriters, Guy Chambers and Jonathan Quarmby. With over 20 years of industry experience, veteran vocal coach Mark De-Lisser also came on board to help the actors produce their tracks.

Children in Need: Got It Covered is a co-production by BBC Studios and 20four7films. It has been commissioned by Charlotte Moore, Director, BBC Content and Kate Phillips, Controller, Entertainment Commissioning. The Commissioning Editor for the BBC is Rachel Ashdown. The executive producers are Mel Balac, Creative Director at BBC Studios, and Polly Dooley, Executive Producer at 20four7films, and the director is Peter Coventry.

BBC Children in Need relies on the generosity and creativity of the thousands of supporters and fundraisers who raise millions of pounds for the charity every year. To date, the UK public has raised over £1 billion for children and young people facing disadvantage across the UK.

All profits will go to BBC Children in Need, with a minimum of £1.50 per album (charity number 802052 in England & Wales and SC039557 in Scotland).

Thanks for posting Alex, really interesting interview. . Gosh !! , BITD going to London , how exciting, I hope it makes it there one day . Interesting the whole writing process


While there is a plan in place for The Boy in the Dress to come to London, these plans have been put on hold due to the Coronavirus pandemic, which has of course thrown up a massive bout of uncertainty for theatres who must be eager to reopen their doors. In 2018, Chambers wrote a children’s folk opera based on the Oscar Wilde short story The Selfish Giant, a personal project on which he had much more freedom to express his musical creativity:

“I did a musical with Robbie Williams, Boy in the Dress,” he continues. The show, adapted from the book by David Walliams, co-creator of the BBC’s Little Britain comedy series, debuted at the Royal Shakespeare Theatre in 2019. “And I’m working on another one now. I’m more interested in the theater and getting my music out that way.”

Putting the beat into beating cancer!
The Evamore Project is an ambitious, creative concept whereby great actors and recording artists come together to record unique, atmospheric songs utilising narrative, lyrics and musicianship to convey true stories - and all to raise the profile of The Cancer Platform.

The Evamore Project was created by scientific entrepreneur, Professor Sir Chris Evans, OBE, who specialises in cancer and is a co-founder of The Cancer Awareness Trust. He was struck how patients’ language and courage clearly echoed the words of those young sent into battle in World War 1. Their letters and diaries inspired him and contributing artists to write a collection of songs that tell the stories of those facing the fight of their lives. All proceeds from the project are dedicated to the Cancer Awareness Trust to develop The Cancer Platform.

Listen to One More Yard featuring Cillian Murphy, Sinead O’Connor, Imelda May, Brian Eno, Nick Mason and Ronnie Wood! Produced by John Reynolds. Available on Spotify or or get in touch to buy a limited edition LP.

We are now working on a full album, to be released to coincide with the full launch of The Cancer Platform website and app! Over 50 of the world’s top stars have already contributed including Glenn Close, Delta Goodrem, Orlando Bloom, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler, Martin Fry, Damien Dempsey, Toby Jones, Peter Kay, Michael Palin, Michael Sheen, Maxine Peake, Christopher Eccleston, Ronnie Wood, Nick Mason, Sinead O’Connor, Imelda May, Cillian Murphy, Brian Eno, Richard Armitage and many more HUGE names to be announced!

Nice find Alex. That sounds very interesting . I take it that Robbie & Guy wll have done something with one of the letters , what an unique idea. Home Thoughts From Abroad sprigs to mind when reading this article . Cillian Murphy was actually talking on the radio last weekend over here but I did not pay that much heed at the time so maybe he was talking about this project .
