Developments continue for the re-recording of 'Do They Know It's Christmas?', which aims to raise more money to tackle the latest famine crisis in Africa.
The latest addition to the line up of artists taking part is Robbie Williams. Existing commitments in the US means Robbie will be unable to be in London for the recording. However, keen to take part, he has arranged to record a segment at a studio in LA which will be sent by satellite to London for inclusion in the track.
One of the team managing the Band Aid III project told The Sun: "He's arranging to sing his sections from a studio in Los Angeles. He has too many commitments to fly over just for the day. But he didn't want to miss out."
Robbie joins an ever growing list of artists, which now includes Coldplay, The Darkness, Keane, Travis, Damon Albarn and Noel Gallagher, who will all take part in the charity recording on 14 Nov.
