Dec 2005 | The Cure, Avril Lavigne
To Cover Lennon Songs In Amnesty
Fundraiser |
Artists
including the Cure, Avril Lavigne
and the Black Eyed Peas are to cover
songs by John Lennon as part of a
fundraiser for human rights group
Amnesty International.
Amnesty said Thursday that the first
four tracks would be released Dec.
10, International Human Rights Day.
They include the Black Eyed Peas’
version of Power to the People, The
Cure’s take on Love, Isolation
performed by British band Snow
Patrol and Grow Old With Me by the
Postal Service.
More songs, including one by Lavigne,
are due for release in the new year
as part of Amnesty’s Make Some Noise
campaign. A compilation album also
will be released next year.
Amnesty secretary-general Irene Khan
said the campaign aimed to ‘‘bring
an awareness of human rights to a
new generation.’’ ‘‘After all, human
rights are what make music possible
— we wouldn’t be able to create
music, listen to it or dance to it
without freedom of speech,
expression and association,’’ Khan
said.
The former Beatle was shot dead by
Mark David Chapman outside his New
York apartment building on Dec. 8,
1980. His widow, Yoko Ono, donated
the rights to his solo songbook to
Amnesty in 2003.
‘‘It’s wonderful that, through this
campaign, music which is so familiar
to many people of my era will now be
embraced by a whole new
generation,’’ Ono said.
‘‘John’s music set out to inspire
change, just as Make Some Noise
does. In standing up for human
rights, we really can make the world
a better place,’’ she said.
The tracks will be available as
downloads from www.amnesty.org/noise
for 99 cents US each.

Dec 2005 | Avril Lavigne Turns
Actress |
MTV
reports that edgy pop-rocker Avril
Lavigne has scored a role alongside
Richard Gere in the crime thriller
The Flock. No word yet on who she'll
be playing, but the 21-year old is
currently in New Mexico shooting a
bunch of scenes. Can I get a "hell
yeah!" to that? Okay, kidding.
The Flock tells the story of a
hyper-vigilant (don't you love them
character descriptions?) federal
agent who, while training his
replacement, is forced to go track
down a missing girl. Oohh, could
that same missing girl also be
gearing up to record her third
album? Though this will mark her
first time on screen, Avril will
also be lending her voice to the
upcoming animated feature Over the
Hedge, in which she'll play a possum
who's on-screen dad will be voiced
by Bruce Willis.
