We Have A Dream

Calling all football fans!

A treat for all you football fans - a special celebrity packed version of the 1982 hit, 'We Have A Dream', is to be released in aid of Children in Need 2008.

'We Have A Dream' is regarded by many fans - Scots and non-Scots alike - to be the archetypal football song and perhaps the greatest World Cup single ever!

Tartan Army has teamed up with BA Robertson to record the new version of his hit, which will be released on Monday 10 November and performed live in the Glasgow studio on Friday 14 November - Children in Need Appeal night.

Last year's Tartan Army single featuring Runrig reached the top ten of the singles chart and sold more than 45,000 copies!

This year's single features many well known names as well as some new talent. Celebrity names include Samuel L Jackson, Dougray Scott, Billy Boyd, Edith Bowman, Richard Wilson, Ashley Jensen as well as comedian Fred Macaulay, former Question of Sport star and Scottish footballing legend Ally McCoist and Olympic hero Chris Hoy. Newer names include The Gospel Truth Choir and 11 year old student, Mark Wood.

And 50,000 Scottish football supporters also got to feature on the single when they belted out their own backing vocals for the track! Check out a behind the scenes look at the video shoot

So treat your ears and show your support for Pudsey by getting your hands on the single - available to buy from the Monday 10 November in stores across Scotland and online.

If you can't wait until then, it's available for pre-release purchase from the usual outlets including websites at HMV, Amazon.co.uk and Zavvi.
