X Factor Finalists Record Mariah Carey’s ‘Hero’

October 7th, 2008 by Lisa McGarry. Tags:

X Factor finalists must be delighted this week. Normally only the winner gets to release a single, but this year all twelve acts have recorded a single which will be released later this month.

The final 12 acts recorded a cover of Mariah Carey’s Hero and it will be released on Saturday 25 October (digitally) and then on Monday 27 October on the high street in aid of the Help For Heroes charity, which provides support for wounded servicemen and women.

Between this track, Leona Lewis’ new single, Leon Jackson’s new single and eventually the X Factor’s winners single, Simon Cowell and co are going to dominate the charts this autumn!

    Austin Drage and Scott Bruton almost came to blows at the recording of their charity single. The brawling pair had to be pulled apart as apparently they hate each other. They will be fighting it out for a place in the second round of the live shows this week,singing we hope, Seconds out, round one.

    THEY WERE ALL MIMEING.
    it was soo obvious!
    i think that is awful for a ‘live’ show.
    the girl groups and some of them cannot sing THAT well.
