To celebrate their 20th Anniversary British charity organisation War Child has released an album with Parlophone Records that brings together some of the best tracks from their five albums – including the legendary ‘HELP’ one from 1995 , which raised £1.5million. Subsequent releases have featured the hottest names in music and raised not only funds, but profile, for our vital work.
War Child 20: The Best Of will be released as a digital album only on 18 February.
With all proceeds of the sale coming directly to War Child, the album tracks have been selected to show the diversity and quality of all the artists who have supported us for the last two decades.
”Miss Sarajevo” by U2 is also featured on the album. “Miss Sarajevo” is the only single from the 1995 album Original Soundtracks 1 by U2 and Brian Eno, under the pseudonym Passengers. Luciano Pavarotti makes a guest vocal appearance, singing the opera solo. Bono cites “Miss Sarajevo” as his favourite U2 song.
