James Records Charity Single For Haiti Appeal
James has just finished a session in the studio contributing vocals to the Haiti charity single, originated after a call from Gordon Brown to Simon Cowell.
He joined forces with an incredible array of amazing singers to complete a stunning version of REM's 'Everybody Hurts' , which will be released in the UK on Feb 7th.
James said of the experience:
"Hey people today was an amazing day. Ordinary for some maybe, but none the less it's the start of something amazing. Today I took part in one of the most meaningful things I've ever done with my ability to deliver a tune!!!!!!!. I layed my vocals down on "Everybody Hurts". What a song! . I've listened to this song so many times but it never fails in connecting you to your core emotions, of what you feel. I've gotta say how great everyone sounds. To be a part of something so huge, not only because of the great caliber of artistes involved, but because of the cause and what this record can achieve. I'm so proud. I'm grateful for my opportunity to help in some way. many of you will have seen footage of the tragedy that's happened in Haiti , and can only imagine the loss. You can help in your own way by making sure you all buy a couple of copies of the song coz all the money raised goes to the Disaster Emergency Center (DEC)which fund 9 charity groups that are already there doing there bit, so you do yours!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm back at home now feeling pretty lucky to have my family. As disfunctional as they are, I loves em all.. I'll be keeping you posted on the next album but for now bye bye and listen out for me on the record I had a killer part.
Peace and love to all.
James.
