Simon Cowell’s charity single for
the victims of the devastating Grenfell Tower fire has left listeners in tears.
Liam Payne, Louis Tomlinson, Rita Ora and Robbie Williams were among 50 artists who lent their
voices to the track which dropped at 8am on Wednesday morning.
Music veterans and rising stars came together
to record a version of Simon and Garfunkel classic, Bridge Over Troubled Water,
after Cowell pledged to raise funds for those affected by the blaze which
killed 79 people.
Cowell invited some of the biggest
names in music to record the track over a three day
period at Sarm Studios in West London – half a mile from
Grenfell Tower.
The track, which was played across multiple
radio stations from 8am on Wednesday morning, will also air on ITV before
Coronation Street later tonight.
All proceeds will go to Artists for Grenfell and
will be distributed via The London Community Foundation. (Evening Standard)
