Coldplay news
Coldplay, Radiohead, Beck, The Kooks, and Oasis are among the artists that will be featured on War Child: 10, a new compilation that will be released Dec. 1 through Universal. You can discuss this news here at the Coldplay forum now.

The collection marks the 10th anniversary of War Child's founding in Canada, and features some covers of classic songs by the likes of Bob Dylan, Neil Young and others. It also features a new recording of Patti Smith's "People Have The Power" by Friends Of War Child, a group that includes The Cliks' Lucas Silveira, Chantal Kreviazuk, Liam Titcomb and Shiloh.

All proceeds from sales of the album will be donated to War Child, which is an international charity working to support children affected by war in developing countries by promoting children's rights, education and poverty reduction.

War Child currently operates in Afghanistan, Sudan and its Darfur region, Uganda, Sierra Leone, the Democratic Republic Of The Congo, Ethiopia, Sri Lanka and Georgia.

Here are the artists and songs on War Child: 10:
