Has anyone else heard this song yet, written by Gary Barlow, and Andrew Lloyd Webber ?

Chris Evans played it twice yesterday, and also showed the video on the One show.

I really like the song--not sure what it is called-something simple like SING or SONG--I think. I can detect more of Gary Barlow's influence on the song , than I can Andrew Lloyd Webber's--but that could change when I listen to it more.

The video was lovely, and included the Military Wives who are singing on it--if Chris does as good a job of promoting it as he did their last song, it should be a big hit.

I am assuming it is all for charity---but Charity and Patriotism aside--I will definately buy this as I thoroughly enjoyed listening to it.

Marian the record company sent me an email about the song yesterday, it's a cd extended play which includes Gary's 'Here Come The Sun' from the M&S tv ad and also Alfie Boe - sounds good!

Check it out on Amazon & Play.com.

I checked it on the day when it was released Karl.

Actually my reply was to Marian(a) who started this thread but I knew you would like it too Marian - release date May 28th.

I think we will have to re-name you Marian 1 and Marian 2 or call one of you Mrs !!!!!

Thanks Karl for the info--and do not worry about the names-we are used to it !!

I received this from from my son who is a newspaper editor on the 10th May, "it’s from out Tomorrow’s News service so it’s out tomorrow. "

Maybe this is a different one from the Gary Barlow one.

Yes, the Gary Barlow one is called "Sing"-I just watched it again.

Let me know when the official cd is out. I just love Gary Barlow!! He was my fave in Take That, partly because he couldn't dance, just like me!! LOL

I think it was on an earlier post that it was due to be released on 28th May-- check out the video--I have kept it on my Sky plus, as I really loved it--in fact it could well be on Youtube already-I have not had chance yet to look--but Gary does feature on it quite a lot.

Have you heard him sing "Here comes the sun" [Beatles], which was featured on an advert here recently--that may well be on youtube too--a really nice ad.

I was hoping Here Comes The Sun would be released, I think Gary Barlow has a great voice and also think he's a very genuine man.
