London, January 26 (ANI): Robbie Williams will reunite with his former band Take That for a Helping Haiti single to help victims struck by the massive earthquake that shook the Caribbean region.
The singer, who quit the group in 1995, will team up with the band for the cover version of REM’s ballad Everybody Hurts to help raise funds for those hit by the 7.0-magnitude tremor on January 12.
“I’m very honoured to be asked to contribute to the single. We can all do something to help the people of Haiti - and I urge everyone to do what they can,” the Daily Express quoted him as telling the Sun.
The track will also feature other artists including Kylie Minogue, Leona Lewis, JLS, James Blunt and Cheryl Cole.
The idea was said to be the brainchild of music mogul Simon Cowell who teamed up with the Sun for the fund-raising effort. (ANI)
