  • Not less than £1 from the sale of each CD will be paid to Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity

    Donate £3.99 to GOSH and save us from X-Factor instead :)

    As Snarf999 ^^

    Typical Simon Cowell. 25% max to charity, while he rakes in 75% whilst selling us the single for a good cause.

    Do it as Snarf999 says and you help a great cause 100% including helping the likes of sarahlucy's lad, and avoid having more unneeded clutter that will only end up on eBay by the turn of the year.

    I apologise to Simon Cowell if he really meant tonight that 100% of the sales go to charity.

    I still say £4 to charity is better than £4 and receive something for it. It's not charity then is it :rotfl:

    I think Simon said 100% of the PROCEEDS goes to GOSH. So take of marketing, production costs, etc. etc.

    Perhaps the best thing if you like the song is to download for 60 odd pence (Tesco Download is 67p), then give £3 straight to GOSH
