Very interesting, a good lineup and a fantastic choice of song to cover as I LOVE the original!

Can see this doing extremely well - a ‘credible’ charity track, a bit likhe when the BBC done ‘Perfect Day’ years ago.

I agree, there's waaaaay too many charity singles around at the moment. This will obviously have a bit more buzz though so I can see it doing fairly well - I'm just not crazy about that song!

Yes, it was a bit of a screwed up release TBF - the physical coming out a month after the download which lead to it having 2 stints in the Top 40, probably would have been a Top 10 hit if handled differently - certainly not as big a ‘Perfect Day’ but still decent. |

Not Jess Glynne coming for another #1! (I'm excited to hear to this but I don't actually think it will challenge for #1)

Sounds really good! Great to hear Dave Grohl's vocals on it as well.
The video is releasing at 20:15. |

it was sounding very nice, great they opened with Dua Lipa,
but then the rap came and ruined it :/ |

Added to Radio 2’s playlist so there’s no doubt that Radio 1 will do the same

That's pretty good actually! Love how they open with Dua Lipa and close with Chris Martin, beautiful

Not as bad as I was expecting. There's no need for the rap bit though!
