Band Aid 30's Do They Know It's Christmas?, which features a host of stars, stormed to the top of the singles chart today.
The reworked version of 'Do They Know It's Christmas?' features stars including One Direction, Bono and Ellie Goulding, and is expected to raise millions to help fight the Ebola crisis in West Africa.
Emeli Sande was one of those who questioned the lyrics which had been changed to reflect the Ebola crisis in west Africa.
The new Band Aid charity single is the bookies' favourite to claim the coveted Christmas number one spot this year.
Band Aid 30 hit the shelves this morning, and within hours has already reached the top of the iTunes chart.
The song raked in more than £1 million in pre-order sales within minutes of being launched on X Factor yesterday. The money will be used to help those affected by Ebola.
ITV News Correspondent Neil Connery reports:
Emeli Sande has said the Band Aid song needs rewriting and apologised if the latest version "caused offence".
