A few posts back, I posted information on the “Everybody Hurts” cover which brought a number of celebrities together to benefit the relief efforts in Haiti. Well, they have released a music video which includes stars like Leona Lewis, Susan Boyle, and Miley Cyrus. I do have to warn you that some of the images are graphic and you do see a lot of pain. Interested in helping Haiti? You can buy this song on iTunes starting tomorrow, February 9.

You read the headline right! Miley Cyrus has teamed up with famed American Idol producer/creater Simon Cowell. This good partnership is due to an even greater cause: Haiti Relief. A few weeks ago, Haiti went through a debilitating 7.0 earthquake with aftershocks hitting 6.0 just last week. The poorest country in our (the United States’) hemisphere, buildings collapsed and hospitals were abandoned.

So, being the caring girl that she is, Miley Cyrus agreed to join Susan Boyle and Rod Stewart. There are other rumors that Paul McCartney and George Michael have also been approached to aid with the song. The song is promised to be released on iTunes this week so stay tuned! I will most definitely be breaking the news. And for those of you that do have iTunes and are Miley fans, I suggest you purchase the song for this noble cause (with your parent’s permission of course).

We do know that song is going to be called Everybody Hurts (a cover of REM’s song) and the lyrics will be as followed:

When the day is long and the night, the night is yours alone,
When you’re sure you’ve had enough of this life, well hang on
Don’t let yourself go, ’cause everybody cries and everybody hurts sometimes

Sometimes everything is wrong. Now it’s time to sing along
When your day is night alone, (hold on, hold on)
If you feel like letting go, (hold on)
When you think you’ve had too much of this life, well hang on

‘Cause everybody hurts. Take comfort in your friends
Everybody hurts. Don’t throw your hand. Oh, no. Don’t throw your hand
If you feel like you’re alone, no, no, no, you are not alone

If you’re on your own in this life, the days and nights are long,
When you think you’ve had too much of this life to hang on

Well, everybody hurts sometimes,
Everybody cries. And everybody hurts sometimes
And everybody hurts sometimes. So, hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on
Everybody hurts. You are not alone.
