The charity single, 'Tears In Heaven', for victims of the Asian tsunami and Hurricane Katrina has been released today. The star-studded recording of ERIC CLAPTON’s 'Tears In Heaven' is available to download via the internet. All proceeds go to Save The Children. OZZY OSBOURNE along with daughter Kelly, ELTON JOHN and ROD STEWART are among the acts who sing on the record. The song originally was conceived to raise money for children affected by the Asian tsunami, but the money raised will now also go to young victims of Hurricane Katrina and other natural disasters.

Sharon Osbourne said: “The magnitude of these natural disasters surpasses anything we’ve seen in our lifetime. With this single and other relief efforts, our intent is to keep these tragedies at the forefront of everyone’s minds. We must not forget and do all we can to help these people rebuild their lives. Music fans who purchase this single will aid the relief efforts and own an historic recording for which these talented artists graciously donated their time."

The single is available for download from the UK site www.7digital.com and costs 99p by credit card or £1.50 via mobile phone. There is also a free preview available. The single is also available from the iTunes music store. The line-up includes Ozzy and Kelly Osbourne, PINK, KATIE MELUA, ANDREA BOCELLI, PHIL COLLINS and actor ROBERT DOWNEY JR, with music by VELVET REVOLVER. Tears In Heaven was originally recorded by Eric Clapton as a tribute to his four-year-old son Conor, who died in 1991. To download this song from www.7digital.com, click here.
