Niall Horan feels inspired to be singing on Band Aid 30 with music legends

We like Niall Horan and his cheeky little face but when he does nice things to help save the world we love him a little bit more.

The One Direction star recorded Band Aid 30 along with the rest of his group in London today.

And the singer gushed about how amazing it is to be involved in such an epic project, telling us: “It was great, really inspiring, is the word I would use. Sir Bob was great, he made a great speech at the start to get everyone ready for it and we just got cracking.

“It was great to be in a room just full of legends.”

The charity single is being released to raise funds to stop Ebola and is a reworked version of the original Band Aid song Do They Know It’s Christmas?

Organiser Sir Bob Geldof, who also put together the 1984 version, has arranged for One Direction, Rita Ora, Emeli Sande, Chris Martin, Seal and Ellie Goulding among others to sing on the track.

The first lines of the song have been recorded by One Direction and it will get its first play during the results show of the X Factor on Sunday night before its release on Monday.
