My favorite band + a classic song + a beautiful cause =



The oh-so worthy cause:

‘War Child: Heroes’ is an unprecedented collaboration between music’s most heralded legends and the finest current artists.

We asked 15 ultimate icons to select a favourite song from their classic back catalogue and to nominate the new act they most trust to create a unique interpretation of that hand-picked track.

This album is the result: 15 exclusive and breath-taking cover versions.

The album was released in the UK by Parlophone and internationally by EMI on February 16.

One of the killer songs:

* The Hold Steady - 'Atlantic City' MP3

    i wasn't sure if this would be worth the purchase or not (not a huge fan of Atlantic city as a song in general)but THS is my favourite band, so I was rather torn

    and this is rather amazing. so it's on my to-buy list now

    thanks a bunch! =]]]]
