I heard a radio interview earlier today with Peter Hooton of The Farm, speaking about the charity single. Apparently he was arguing for the re-release of The Hollies version of Heavy, as he said "it is such a classic"

Good on him, Dawn. I thought exactly the same thing when I heard it played at that emotional Everton match.

Released today, 17th December.

Have you got your copy yet. Let's help to make this song the Christmas Number One in the charts.

I know it's not The Hollies but it is "Their" Song and the exposure can only be good.

Get It Here

Hello Barb, I bought the CD yesterday and I found a mention of Tony and Bobby inside the sleeve under "Vocals by" ... I was amazed! as usually they get forgotten.

Hi Barb, if it's any help, my copy came from HMV. They had them on the counter (after I'd walked around the shop!)
Also good news! It's at number one in the midweek sales!!

More good news that the original Hillsborough verdict has been quashed today in the High Court.

I bought the cd this morning from HMV- Sir P. gets his name printed 3 times but no namecheck for Bobby and Tony! Why are there different versions of the sleeve?
I've just ordered another copy from Amazon so I hope this one will be a cd I want to keep!
Ps Happy Christmas to the Hollies, all their families and all their fans!

That's very strange Emily, and Sir P only mentioned once on my copy. Why are there different sleeves?? I hope the Amazon copy has got Tony's and Bobby's names on it for you, let us know! I keep checking mine to make sure I'm not seeing things!! Shocked

After 5 days Heavy has a 15% lead on the X-factor winner. This means the lead has been increasing, but this is still quite nerve wrecking.

Heavy is no 2 on the iTunes chart.

I heard the song for the first time last night on TOTP2 and I thought they did a good job of it. Even though of course I will always prefer The Hollies version, I'm glad it is now no.1 as it is for such a worthy cause. It was a surprise (but a nice one) to see Tony and Bobby in the video.
