The album will be released in the UK by Parlophone on February 16th, 24th Feb in the United States through Astralwerks, and 3rd March in Canada through Musicor.

In devising the concept behind this album - inviting musical legends to place their faith in the next generation – we sought to mirror War Child’s work. We feel the reaction was fittingly awesome.

David Bowie and Sir Paul McCartney were the first legends to lend their support and they selected two of 2008’s most acclaimed artists: Welsh singer Duffy, whose debut album 'Rockferry’ has sold 4 million copies and marked her out as one of the year’s freshest talents; and New York art-rock outfit TV On The Radio, the coolest, most critically-lauded act of the year thanks to their outstanding album ‘Dear Science’.

These first selections would set a sharp template and a high bar. The rest of our stellar cast were not far behind in coming on board and their nominations did not disappoint. The pairings would throw up some astonishing, historic moments.

01. Beck (Bob Dylan - "Leopard-Skin Pill-Box Hat")
02. Scissor Sisters (Roxy Music - "Do The Strand")
03. Lily Allen feat. Mick Jones (The Clash - "Straight To Hell")
04. Duffy (Paul McCartney - "Live And Let Die")
05. Elbow (U2 - "Running To Stand Still")
06. TV On The Radio (David Bowie - "Heroes")
07. Hot Chip (Joy Division - "Transmission")
08. The Kooks (The Kinks - "Victoria")
09. Estelle (Stevie Wonder - "Superstition")
10. Rufus Wainwright (Brian Wilson -" Wonderful & Song For Children")
11. Peaches (Iggy Pop - "Search And Destroy")
12. The Hold Steady (Bruce Springsteen - "Atlantic City")
13. The Like (Elvis Costello - "You Belong To Me")
14. Yeah Yeah Yeahs (The Ramones - "Sheena Is A Punk Rocker")
15. Franz Ferdinand (Blondie - "Call Me")

North American bonus track
16. Adam Cohen - (Leonard Cohen - "Take This Waltz")

Ho! Ho! Ho! We thought we'd contribute to the holiday spirit by sharing a new song which we hope functions as an antidote to the madness of consumption that seems to have since long overshadowed the birth of love! It's an alternative Christmas carol & we'd love it if you check it out! May this Holiday season be filled with Kindness! All true blessings upon you & your loved ones, light, mercy & compassion for all!

£leTriKa sounds completely different from any Metal band you have ever heard. The Brazilian rhythms and the Portuguese language added to the songs makes its style unique, giving birth to a new kind of Metal. If you are really looking for something new about Metal, you should check £leTriKa out!

Hugs from Brazil,

Hello everyone, thanks for the ad.

JOIN US ON THE GAZA FREEDOM MARCH

The
International Coalition to End the Illegal Siege of Gaza formed after
Israel's 22-day assault on Gaza in winter 2008-09. We are a diverse
coalition that represents all faiths (and no faith) and is focused on
human rights in conformance with international law. *****To mark the
fact that is has been one year since the Israeli attack, the coalition
is mobilizing an international contingent for a nonviolent march
alongside the people of Gaza on Dec. 31, to end the illegal
blockade.***** The coalition conceives this march as part of a broader
strategy to end the Israeli occupation by targeting
nonviolently its
flagrant violations of international law from the house demolitions and
settlements to the curfews and torture. *****JOIN US ON THE GAZA
FREEDOM MARCH December 27—January 2! *****This site is the only
authoritative source of information on the Gaza Freedom March. *****
All those planning to join the march must sign up on this site.

Hi War Child Heros,

Its been a while and we thought it was about time we updated you on what we've
been up to. Our debut EP Little World is now available at our gigs and will
soon be available from our myspace and facebook pages, you will also be able to
download it from itunes, but we don't have a release date for this as yet.

To celebrate the fact that we have now reached 25,000 plays on myspace, we are
giving you a free MP3 of Rockabye Baby. All you have to do is send your email
address to queen.elvis@yahoo.ie and we will send it to you.

We have spent the last year rehearsing with a full band and are now ready to
bring it on the road. You can get a look at us when we appear on Balcony TV
this week with the full line up. We are currently taking bookings for
gigs/concerts/festivals and can be contacted on the email above, or through our
myspace and facebook pages.

Thankyou for your continued support in what has been a great year for us!

Best Wishes

Caroline and Colin
