Paul Potts, Faryl Smith on Haiti charity track
28/02/2010 - 13:27

Britain's Got Talent stars Paul Potts and Faryl Smith are among those performing on a classical charity track in aid of Haiti earthquake victims.
X Factor finalist Rhydian Roberts and recent Popstar To Operastar winner Darius Campbell are also featured on the track, a version of the Andrea Bocelli/Celine Dion song The Prayer.
The track will be released on March 14, with all proceeds going to the Disasters Emergency Committee (DEC).
"Doing things like this is far more worthwhile than things that just put money into my bank account, Potts said. "It's great to be able to give something back. Hopefully this single will provide a catalyst for change.'
"It was shocking to see the devastation that the earthquake brought to Haiti," he added. "It was inspiring to see among the pain and suffering hope against all odds."
The single comes in the wake of Simon Cowell's charity track for Haiti, a cover of the REM song Everybody Hurts featuring Leona Lewis, JLS and Susan Boyle among others.
It has so far spent two weeks at the top of the UK charts.
Paul Potts was the winner of the first series of Britain's Got Talent in 2007, while schoolgirl Faryl Smith reached the final of the 2008 series.
