VV Brown, Tinchy Stryder Remix Killers Song For War Child

July 7, 2009
VV Brown, Tinchy Stryder Remix Killers Song For War ChildVV Brown and Tinchy Stryder are among a host of acts who have remixed a song by the Killers for the charity War Child.

The reimagining of ‘All These Thing That I’ve Done’ will be released in August.

Pixie Lott and N-Dubz have also contributed vocals to the track, which has been approved by The Killers.

Tulisa, from N-Dubz, said the single would raise awareness for War Child, which helps children around the world whose lives have been affected by war.

"It's an issue that hasn't been looked at enough,” Tulisa said.

“And you know, even until I found out about this event, I didn't really know that much about it, and that's saying something you know.

"And the fact that I'm only finding out now is not really good enough. So that was every reason for me to get involved."

All proceeds from the single will go directly to the charity.
