Tuesday, September 06, 2005
Michael Jackson has written a new song in response to the devastation caused by Hurricane Katrina, and is currently in the process of finding recording artists to collaborate with him on the track to help aid for the victims of the natural disaster. The song has a working title of From The Bottom Of My Heart and is part of a fundraising project titled From The Gulf To The Gulf according to Michael's spokesperson Raymone Bain, who released the following statement;
"In response to the widespread devastation wrought by Hurricane Katrina, Recording Superstar Michael Jackson has been moved to pen a song, with the working title, From the Bottom of My Heart.
Hoping to rekindle the success of We Are the World, which he wrote and produced, and which raised millions of dollars for aid to Africa, Mr. Jackson will be enlisting, within the next 24 hours, the involvement of other recording superstars to join him in this project. It is his intention to record this record within the next two weeks.
"It pains me to watch the human suffering taking place in the Gulf Region of my country," says Mr. Jackson. "My heart and prayers go out to every individual who has had to endure the pain and suffering caused by this tragedy. I will be reaching out to others within the music industry, to join me in helping to bring relief and hope to these resilient people who have lost everything."
The song will be recorded on 2 Seas Records, a label owned by Prince Abdulla Hamad Alkhalifa of Bahrain. All proceeds from the sale will be donated to the victims of Hurricane Katrina."
