[Ska8er]

Very weird line up indeed

[oasisbobo]

Great to see Jack Savoretti involved. This should sell well and give Oasis a boost too which is always good.

[SholasBoy]

God I hate these charity cover songs. I understand that they are raising money for charities, but the tracks themselves are always so cheesy.

[RayRay]

No one can sing it like Leona Lewis.

[Thriller]

Cher and Jay Sean on the same song so random.

[spiritboy]

They should've added the Queen of gheys to the line-up, Lady Gaga.

True! best version of the song!

[Thriller]

Too many artists warbling and screeching over it for me. Should’ve just let Kylie sing the whole thing

I agree with this.

Agreed.

I only really liked Cher and Kylie - and the teeny bit of James Morrison that I could make out.

I'd rather have "Wibbling Rivalry" re-released for the charity purposes.

Despite the lack of studio audience, the BBC's annual Children In Need spectacular took place last week and as is traditional has emitted a tie-in charity single. Stop Crying Your Heart Out is an all-star charity rendition of Oasis' 2002 single featuring such luminaries as Paloma Faith, Ava Max, Nile Rogers and Robbie Williams (collectively branded as The Radio 2 Allstars). A strong leader in early midweek flashes, the track's appeal was inevitably front-loaded and with its sales having effectively stalled by Tuesday it finishes the week at No.7 with 28,421 sales, most of these paid downloads.

Very front loaded - was #1 at the start of the week, ended at #7.

Apparently not as front loaded as the Ladbabdy Christmas #1s

[Thriller]

Relatively low sales for a charity single and crazy to think Ariana only sold just over a thousand downloads to be at #1.
