F*cked Up To Cover 'Do They Know It's Christmas?'

Canadian hardcore band Fucked Up are set to record a cover of the classic Band Aid single 'Do They Know It's Christmas' for the charity Justice For The Missing.

The bands iconic frontman Pink Eyes says of the single, “We already have Vampire Weekend and TV On The Radio confirmed”.

Speaking to 'Vulture' the band revealed there are plans to recruit more names to the bill, “I'm still waiting on confirmation from Feist, Jarvis Cocker and MIA. We wanted the biggest people we could get. If we could get a Jonas Brother on this, I would get a Jonas Brother.”

The original song, released in 1998, featured a famous line sung by U2's Bono, something the new version might also have; “If Bono wanted to be on the record, I’d say yes, because, at the end of the day, it’s about raising money and awareness. As terrible as I find his music and as reprehensible as I find him as a person, I would definitely have him on.”
