Watch Shane MacGowan & Friends Record I Put A Spell On You!

Shane MacGowan, Nick Cave, Bobby Gillespie, Chrissie Hynde, Mick Jones and a guitar-wielding Johnny Depp have joined forces to release their take on I Put A Spell On You in aid of Concern Worldwide's work in Haiti.

Moved by the plight of the people of Haiti following last month's devastating earthquake, Shane and his long term girlfriend Victoria Clarke quickly assembled a group of friends and set about recording this new version of Screamin' Jay Hawkins' 1956 blues classic.

Hawkins died ten years ago to the day that the earthquake hit Haiti.

I Put A Spell On You is set for release on Monday (March 8) and will be available via download only. Pre-order the single HERE or text SPELL (all in capitals) to 78789 (the text will cost £1.50).

Vocals: Shane MacGowan / Nick Cave / Bobby Gillespie / Glen Matlock / Chrissie Hynde / Paloma Faith / Eliza Doolittle
Guitar: James Walbourne / Mick Jones / Johnny Depp
Bass: Cait O'Riordan
