On June 14, Grenfell Tower, a 24-floor apartment complex in London, was set ablaze leaving 79 people dead and resulting in the worst fire Britain has seen in over 100 years. Today, over 50 artists including Céline Dion, Liam Payne, Rita Ora and more have come together to release a charity single dedicated to the victims of the tragedy.
Orchestrated by Simon Cowell, the single is a remake of Simon and Garfunkel's "Bridge Over Troubled Water." All proceeds from the song will go to the victims and their families through the London Community Foundation.
Along with the star-studded cast of artists, over 300 survivors of Grenfell Tower are featured on the track as part of the choir led by broadcaster Gareth Malone.
"Seeing how emotional the local residents became while singing was really moving. Some of them actually lived in Grenfell Tower, their homes have been destroyed. It's very raw for a lot of them," Malone told HuffPost UK.
With so many beautiful voices on one track, here's a full breakdown of the lyrics:
