"Band Aid 20"

I thought this was going to be crap originally, but I'm not 100% sure yet, it's beginning to sound like it could eb good?

Does anyone know who's actually singing in it?

I know Chris Martin of Coldplay is opening it, andBono will be singing his original line, probably, but that's it.

Anyway, the line up for the song, incase you didn't know/haven't read today's papers is...

Sir Paul McCartney
Coldplay's Chris Martin
U2 frontman Bono
Jamelia
Miss Dynamite
Justin Hawkins
Busted
Daniel and Natasha Bedingfield
Rachel Stevens
Will Young
Katie Melua
Joss Stone
Travis
Dido
Robbie Williams
Snow Patrol
Keane
Feeder
The Sugababes
Skye from Morcheeba,
Beverley Knight
All Saint Shaznay Lewis
The Thrills
Roisin Murphy from Moloko
Lemar
Estelle
Neil Hannon of the Divine Comedy
Dizzee Rascal.

There's probably more because I may have missed some out, but it's been a huge turn out. Some un expected stars and stuff...

Anyway, for those who want to hear it...

Radio 1 will be playing it tomorrow morning, unsure of the time, will try to find out.

Then on Thursday, at around 6:05pm, BBC 1, BBC 2, ITV, C4 and Five will all be playing the video at the same time.

I copied that. ;c)

See, that's the problem, I know half of them are in it, but then I'm being told that Thom Yorke, Noel Gallagher and Damon Albarn are going to be in it too.

All of whom would be ebtter tahn most of them.

"Fran Healy - Wooo"

Heh.
What a line.
It's funny because there's no exclamation mark at the end.
It sounds (looks) as if it'd be a boring non-emphatic "woo"

ANyway, tommorrow at 8am it is bieng played. Apparantly. According to that article.

And A... caveat, it appears most of them are just going to sing the chorus, AND, apparantly the Dzzee rascal lines sounds pretty good when played.

But I've not heard it, so can't comment.

It'll probably be crap and cheesy but I'll buy it anyway.

I wouldn't let Justin Hawking, that fat-faced gimp from Keane sing anything.

Plus others

No foos - no good.

Isn't there now some controversy about the original Band Aid money being used to buy weapons in those crappy countries? Probably not, but it's just something I heard. Not going to buy it. I know these causes exist, and I put money into tins whenever I can, so I already do my bit. I buy the Big Issue, and help spaccers cross roads safely (well, they do most of the work, I just tag along to be seen). I'm charitable.
