If you haven't heard yet about the War Child compilation coming out next month, you can read more here. There appear to be some fantastic covers on there, most notably (imo) The Hold Steady covering Springsteens 'Atlantic City' and Hot Chip covering Joy Divisions 'Transmissions'. However the one I was most interested to hear was TV on the Radio's cover of David Bowie's 'Heroes' and you can now stream the track below.
Here is the full tracklist:
01. Beck (Bob Dylan: "Leopard-Skin Pill-Box Hat")
02. The Kooks (The Kinks: "Victoria")
03. The Hold Steady (Bruce Springsteen: "Atlantic City")
04. Hot Chip (Joy Division: "Transmission")
05. Lily Allen (The Clash: "Straight To Hell")
06. Yeah Yeah Yeahs (The Ramones: "Sheena Is A Punk Rocker")
07. Franz Ferdinand (Blondie: "Call Me")
08. Duffy (Paul McCartney: "Live And Let Die")
09. Estelle (Stevie Wonder: "Superstition")
10. Rufus Wainwright (Brian Wilson: "Wonderful/ Song For Children")
11. Scissor Sisters (Roxy Music: "Do The Strand")
12. Peaches (Iggy Pop and The Stooges: "Search And Destroy")
13. Adam Cohen (Leonard Cohen: "Take This Waltz")
14. Elbow (U2: "Running To Stand Still")
15. The Like (Elvis Costello: "You Belong To Me")
16. TV On The Radio (David Bowie: "Heroes")
The album will be out on 2/16 and it's for charity so pay for it, jerks!
