OK so they've totally butchered & tarnished a decent track (R.E.M.s Everybody hurts) & say what you will about Band Aids 1984 "Do they know it's Christmas time", it gets rolled out every year & there was even a remake with modern artists in 2004, not as good in my opinion but the thought was there.

I think there is a place for these efforts (disaster relief singles), not everyone will like them or agree but if they highlight a relevant cause, & bring in some much needed coinage why not ? but as Flashy mentioned an original effort would be better, something appropriate & relevant for that particular undertaking.
