Thanks girls - something that's really close to his heart :wub:
It's very annoying when record companies reissue albums with only one bonus track. I've already got the album and certainly don't want to pay again for just one new track. Why couldn't they have added 3 or 4 new songs? The album is only 14 tracks so they would have fit. Rip off!!

You don't need to. If you want the track you can download it separately from iTunes next Friday. I'm sure this reissue is just an attempt to get the album back on the shelves over the Xmas period. I'm sure the album sales have suffered due to lack of stock.

I've got a couple on the way :cheer:

Really looking forward to seeing the ad, and hoping that the GBP will take it to their hearts .

High budget productions during commercial breaks have become a traditional part of the festive season with big name shops vying for best television advert.

 

For the first time, one of the planet's leading conservation organisations is entering the fray with a three-minute commercial due to be screened tonight.

 

WWF and singer Will Young have teamed up for a new advert aimed at making the planet "number one" this Christmas and to highlight how global populations of wildlife have halved since 1970.

 

 

The singer will be performing an exclusive version of Burt Bacharach's classic "What the World Needs Now is Love" during the advert break for Alan Carr's Chatty Man show on Channel 4 tonight.

 

The WWF says an "awe-inspiring video" accompanies the singer's vocals, showcasing some of nature's most incredible landscapes and species as well as startling facts that reveal as few as 3,200 tigers are left in the wild and 97 per cent of our oceans are unprotected.

 

"With this huge decline in wildlife populations happening since the song was first released in 1965, this is a wake-up call for us all - we're living as though we have more than one planet at our disposal," says the WWF, which has more than five million supporters and a global network active in more than one hundred countries.

 

Speaking about the song, Will, whose passion for wildlife and the environment began at a young age, said: "It's shocking to think that in my lifetime global wildlife populations have declined by more than 50 per cent and our forests and oceans remain at risk.

 

 

"If we actually stop and think about that, it's a real wake up call. Ultimately that's what the world needs now - every single one of us to take action and protect our world for future generations

 

WWF says the innovative campaign created with Globe, Universal Music's Creative and Commercial Partnerships division, aims to inspire the UK public and raise vital funds to support its work to protect the natural world.

Will Young to release his stunning take on a Burt Bacharach classic for WWF campaign

 

 

Will Young has covered the Burt Bacharach classic 'What the World Needs Now' for his latest single and it's all for a good cause.

 

It is being released as part of WWF's campaign to raise awareness for declining wildlife populations across the globe

Young said: "It's shocking to think that in my lifetime global wildlife populations have declined by over 50% and our forests and oceans remain at risk.

 

"If we actually stop and think about that, it's a real wake-up call.

 

"Ultimately that's what the world needs now – every single one of us to take action and protect our world for future generations."

 

 

 

The single is the final track to be taken from his latest album 85% Proof and will be released on January 8, 2016.

 

The singer is currently finishing up his 'Love Revolution' UK tour until the end of November that will see the star perform gigs in Llandudno, Manchester, Nottingham and London.
