Songs by The Beatles, Bob Dylan, Beyonce, U2 and Bruno Mars are
among the 39 donated to "Songs for the Philippines," available for
purchase Monday at iTunes and for streaming on iTunes Radio.
The artists, record companies and music publishers have agreed to
donate the proceeds to the Philippines Red Cross.
Thousands were killed, injured and displaced by Typhoon Haiyan
earlier this month and officials have struggled to keep up with
humanitarian aid demands.
The compilation album has a little of everything, from the
disturbing images of a live version of Eminem's "Stan" to the
calming effect of The Beatles' "Let It Be."
