The track is available to buy and stream now, with all proceeds going to the Grenfell relief effort.

The song will get its radio premiere today at 8am, with the music video to follow tonight, just before Coronation Street starts on ITV at 7:30pm.

Listen below.

The line-up includes the likes of Paloma Faith, James Blunt, Robbie Williams, Liam Payne, Jessie J, Louisa Johnson, Emeli Sande, Shane Fillan and Tulisa.

Stormzy also opens the track with a heartbreakingly poignant rap verse.

Bridge Over Troubled Water was recorded at Sam Studios in West London, just half a mile from the tower.

Sande said yesterday: “It’s a hard time not to feel quite helpless, I’m just happy I could give my voice and my passion,” she said.

“It was quite emotional. When I listen to the song it reminds me just how powerful music and lyrics can be.”

The full line-up is as follows: Angel, Anne-Marie, Bastille, Brian May – Queen, Carl Barât – The Libertines, Craig David, Deno, Donae’o, Dua Lipa, Ella Eyre, Ella Henderson, Emeli Sandé, Fleur East, Gareth Malone & The Choir for Grenfell, Geri Halliwell, Gregory Porter, James Arthur, James Blunt and Jessie J.

Cowell has also made a sizeable personal donation to the relief effort for the victims of the blaze, which took place one week ago.

“As well as buying the single, we hope people can support those affected by the Grenfell fire by donating,” Cowell tweeted last night.

“Thank you to everyone for their help and support in making this happen.”

Theresa May has agreed to waive VAT on the track.

“Honestly – it’s unbelievable,” the X Factor judge said of the track when he was filmed leaving the studio on Monday.

“I mean chills. It sounds beautiful.”

Jessie J told GMB: “It’s a rare occasion to get this amount of artists on one song.

“Those people who have lost everything… I can’t even imagine.”
