Newsnight’s political party pop songs completed
By CMU Editorial | Published on Friday 30 April 2010
Staying with the Election, and remember how Hadouken!, Right Said Fred and upcoming grime outfit Nu Brand were asked by the BBC’s Newsnight to make a song for each of the three main political parties – Labour, Lib Dem and Tories respectively? Well, they’ve done their songs, so you can go check them out if you want:
Hadouken! perform their Labour Party anthem
Nu Brand’s Conservative Party anthem
Right Said Fred perform their Lib Dem Party anthem
I think all three artists are keen to let it be known that they were given their parties by Newsnight producers, and that they took part in the project for fun rather than because of any political sympathies with the parties they have musicalised.
