Charity single Bridge Over Troubled Water recorded to remember Grenfell Tower victims

The single will raise money for those affected by the tragedy.

A new charity single will be released on Wednesday, to remember the victims of the Grenfell Tower tragedy in Notting Hill.

The single, organised by Simon Cowell, will be a cover Bridge Over Troubled Water, and will feature a host of music stars including Emeli Sandé, Leona Lewis, Rita Ora, Stormzy and X Factor winner Louisa Johnson.

Celine Dion and Robbie Williams are also rumoured to have been involved in the recording.

X Factor winner Louisa told The Guardian: "The amount of people that have actually agreed to it and gone out of their way to do it is incredible, especially how busy some of these people are. I feel honoured to be a part of it."

The charity single will not just feature music stars; TV choir director Gareth Malone has pulled together a choir of around 300 people, made up of local choirs and residents, who will also sing on the track.

"Singing absolutely cannot fix anything, a record cannot fix anything, but we might be able to raise some money, we might be able to touch a few hearts," Gareth Malone said.

It is hoped that the single will raise millions for the victims of the tragic fire at Grenfell Tower last week.

Bridge Over Troubled Water will be released on Wednesday.
