Following the tragedy that’s come from the horrific Grenfell Tower fire, many of the UK’s brightest have come together — via Simon Cowell — to create a heartfelt tribute single titled “Bridge Over Troubled Water,” a rousing remake of Simon and Garfunkel‘s ’70’s classic. In addition to the single (which took three days to complete and has since topped the charts), you can also check out the lyrics and each individual’s contribution to the record.
