A slew of the biggest and brightest names in music have joined forces on an isolation performance of Foo Fighters’ classic ‘Time Like These‘. The performance was part of the BBC Radio 1 Stay Home Live Lounge.
Proceeds from the cover will benefit BBC’s Children in Need, Comic Relief and the World Health Organization’s COVID-19-Solidarity Response Fund.
The performance saw appearances by Dave Grohl, Chris Martin, Dua Lipa, Taylor Hawkins, 5 Seconds of Summer, Rag’n’Bone man, Biffy Clyro, Sam Fender, Rita Ora and more.
“I am so honored to be a part of this incredible recording and blown away by all the heart and soul these amazing artists have put into our song,” Grohl said in a statement. “I hope that it helps lift people’s spirits, and reminds them that we’ll all be back in one of those muddy fields again someday soon, singing our hearts out together.”
“Very honored to help spread such a powerful message through music, alongside so many incredible artists in such an uplifting way,” added 5 Seconds of Summer’s Luke Hemmings. “It feels the perfect song to resonate with the world during such challenging times and hopefully lots of money is raised!”
