The people of Wootton Bassett are coming together in a fantastic community project over the summer, to record and release a single and make a stunning music video to compliment it. The project will involved as many people from the town as we can encourage to take part.
Thanks to the generosity of time, spirit and support from the people of Wootton Bassett we are confident that it will be a huge success and we welcome the involvement of the whole community!

24 people should be ashamed!
Brilliant. Loved it and shared it on Twitter and Facebook. Reminds me of the opening sequence to Absolute Beginners... Julian Temple would be proud of the one take.
This is an amazing video, flawlessly done. Salute to WBR. :)
Great collaboration all around! Love the finished piece.
ONE DISLIKE?????
@catkin0 So would I, excellent idea! Peace.
@wbcharitysingle What absolutly wonderfull people you are, have still not managed to watch it all the way thru without crying, much peace to all of you, you all deserve medals! Steve King!
Great radio subject, thank you radio 5, I have a new respect for you, God bless my troops!
Have you posted this on all forces websites? Plus the British Forces network? Peace, from an ex-infantryman!
I love this! It has the feel of the Musical, and for such a wonderful thing! I can't say enough how much I enjoy this. :)
Still in bloody tears a week after watching this, have posted it to everyone I know, it would be lovely to get this to number one instead of that x-factor garbage! NS.
WBR for Cristmas no.1!!! I love this idea for charity... this is awesome! :D
this is such a brilliant tribute to all those brave and never forgotton heroes.wooton basset will always be special and not just to the people that live there.this single just enhances how the whole town always come together and always have for our fallen heroes.well done and good luck.christine.x
Superb, very moving, excellently produced and directed. I would love to see a 'Making of ...' documentary.
great video, fitting tribute to all those fallen heroes that will never be forgotton
Awesome video! I love that the whole town's in it; each doing their own thing!! My father served in three wars (yea, I'm an Air Force Brat & proud of it!) My brother served in two wars so I think all vets deserve all and every support possible. Your town has done a wonderful thing! THANK YOU! ****From New Orleans, Louisiana USA
fantastic video and song remembering our heroes and the wonder people of Wootton Bassett x
I bought the single from Amazon and played it on my radio show on Total biker FM and will be doing so again this Sunday sometime between 10pm and Midnight, i will also plug it and get my listeners to go out and buy it ;)
What a great sentiment and tribute
I'm so proud! This single has gone so far, so hopefully we can raise lots of money for the soilders. I feel so proud to be a part of Wootton Bassett!
WOW! Am very humbled, I will buy this! Peace.
Fab... well done. Shame it costs more to buy on itunes than amazon :S
@johnfmarshall - the negative comments I referred to were the negative comments which have thankfully been removed (why give these bitter individuals a platform?!) and also the people who have taken the time to dislike a project which so many people have worked tirelessly on for no gain except to raise money for charities. It is sad to see people try and knock a good thing!
Top Video, you owe me for a new box of Kleenex you buggers! Peace.
@georgaalty There have been people who, carried away by the excitement ot the project, have been posting "let's get this to number 1 for Christmas". I have been only trying to manage their expectations. But of course you are right, as far as the real aim of the song is concerned (helping worthwhile charity) every sale does count. (I hope the project is set up in the best way to avoid any tax implications - be a shame if the tax man took any of the money)
This vid disappeared off KZread - thank God its back again. Its fab. Well done everyone involved. KEEP IT ON KZread xx
who is fliccwiltshire? they are not flicwiltshire who did a nice report on this projects, and know the 2 companies producing this are professional and trained.
To Iisyinyang I think every post has praised the charitable endeavours. Those who question the artistic merits are entitled to do so...that's show business. As for my comment, I'm sorry if you think it is negative, but it's (probably) fact. Military Wives have played the game beautifully.... it's nicely hyped & got some great media national support, when it come out on 19/12 there will be a rush and it should knock the spots off X Factor. Any copies of this sold between now &19th will not count.
This is an amazing project that so many people and companies have worked very hard (for no fee) just to raise money for worthy charities. I''m shocked though that a few sad individuals have nothing better to do with their time but write negative posts! Maybe they should go and do something constructive with their time and raise money for charities, or get a life? Well done Wootton Bassett Rocks xx
Wootton Bassett Rocks is not likely to be the Christmas number 1, it's been released too soon, wont get enough hype etc (what with Chris Evans backing the Military Wives). Enjoy every single penny that you send to the charities, but if you want to keep X Factor from the Christmas top spot, this isn't the way to do it.
@laughingboy2012 What missed opportunity, to raise funds for injured troops. ? Everyone shown is a local resident, all production work provided free of charge, no showy performers, no glossy productions,no one paid, all about goodwill and community spirit for a very good cause.
why has the vid been removed from KZread?
haha see that my old milkman is still knocking about
This is brilliant.
Love it :O) I'll def be buying this but the video is excellent .. well done RWB & all those involved x
I was wondering whether or not to respond. I don't know if there is anything more I could contribute to the discussion. But I need to say I was moved almost to the point of tears. This is a wonderful tribute to loved ones lost and their sacrifices. Well done Wooltton Bassett. Well done and more to those responsible for the idea and those who contributed and helped in any way.
A truly inspirational video, RWB never fails to surprise and they're always out in force. Can't think of any other town that shows such commitment, keep it up RWB and residents, you are a town like no other!!
Amazing, Beautiful, and Fitting.
Royal Wootton Bassett and it's residents has so much to be proud of.......A simple, but moving tribute.
I didn't exactly like sound of the music itself, but the video and concept were very cool and well thought out. I love the message and remembrance they embraced in the name of charity. :)
Brilliant choice of song, great video of the good folk of RWB, great cause ! get onto itunes and download your copy or make a donation !
i killed the replay button and the like button, but i left the dislike button untouched
1 dislike? WTF? Whoever did that must just be an empty vessel
ha ha, love it! ~:)
woo! i'm from wootton bassett!
Proud to be part of the project. Can't wait to get there on Sunday.
Good luck to all those involved on Sunday!
