Veteran rock band Status Quo are releasing a new version of their hit In The Army Now to raise funds for armed forces charities.
The song, a number two hit in 1986, has been lyrically reworked and has backing vocals from the Corps of Army Music.
"We want people to celebrate what they do, say thank you and also support these vital charities," said the band's Francis Rossi.
The track, re-recorded in recent weeks, is due to be released on 26 September.
All proceeds from the song will be donated to the Help For Heroes and British Forces Foundation charities.
This is not the new version, but its the same song. (well nearly)
EDIT, Paul Emailed Status Quo about the single, he received this reply;
Paul,
The single is not released as a single throughout Europe, but will be released
as a mini-album by Edel in the near future. Please keep and eye on the site for
details.
