My Chemical Romance 'Sing' For Japan Earthquake Victims

April 14, 2011

My Chemical Romance have recorded a special version of their single 'Sing' for the victims of the recent Japanese earthquake and Tsunami.

The new version, which can be watched below, features classic orchestral Japanese themes.

Ray Toro said: "My Chemical Romance has always shared a special connection with Japan.

"The food, the culture, the energy, the people...Since our first show there, we knew it would be a place we would keep coming back to."

He added that they had been "inspired by our fans" to record the #SingItForJapan version.

The video for the single includes artwork, video footage and pictures donated by fans. All proceeds from the track will go the American Red Cross.
