Ed Sheeran: I wish I wasn't on Band Aid anniversary single
The Guardian
|November 19, 2024
Ed Sheeran has said he would rather not be on the forthcoming anniversary version of the Band Aid charity single Do They Know It's Christmas?, aligning himself with criticism of the song as dehumanising and damaging to Africans.
The singer's vocals are included in a new mix created using recordings of the song released in 1984, 2004 and 2014 – the year he took part. It will be released on 25 November to mark 40 years since the first Band Aid single.
