A-list music stars Ed Sheeran, Griff and Yungblud have been roped in to play guitar, synths and bass on the track.

Niall said: “I have supported BBC Children in Need many times over the years, but given what we have all been through over the last year and a half, it feels more important than ever. 

“Togetherness sits at the heart of BBC Children in Need, and that’s what this track is all about. I hope people enjoy it, but above all, I hope it lets anyone who might be struggling right now know that we are here for them.”

Anne-Marie added: “As we have seen over the past eighteen months, amazing things happen when we come together to help make a difference, and that’s why I am so proud to be releasing this special track with Niall. I hope everyone loves it as much as we do.”

The classic track follows the all-star cover of Foo Fighter’s Times Like These that went to number one in the UK last year.

Fleetwood Mac’s Christine McVie wrote Everywhere and said: “I’m thrilled with this new version of Everywhere and to be part of this year’s Children in Need campaign. I hope we can really make a difference.”

Tommy Nagra, Director of Content at BBC Children in Need, thanked the musicians for coming together to create something “truly special”.

A minimum of 50p from the sale of each download in the UK will benefit BBC Children In Need.
