Shane MacGowan may give the impression he lives in a permanent alcoholic stupor, but the crisis in Haiti has pierced it and he’s organised a star studded single to raise funds. The song, and video of behind the scenes footage, is out now and we have it below. You’ll see MacGowan himself “singing”, alongside Nick Cave, Bobby Gillespie, Chrissie Hynde, Johnny Depp on guitar and Paloma Faith. The clear advantage for MacGowan is the tune encourages a chaotic, angry approach, and the singers acquit themselves well, if not as mentally as the best versions.
