'1 LOVE'
The Prodigy fans had the chance to listen to the whole NME '1 Love' Warchild covers album online for 24 hours on the nme.com website. Prodigy did a cover of the Specials "Ghost Town" and Jimmy Eat World covered Prodigy's "Firestarter".
The album project, which began last month when NME asked a number of contemporary stars to record versions of their favourite Number One singles of all time for a release to benefit the War Child charity, will feature a host of top names.
