Madonna releases song for Live Earth concerts: download page

[cal04]

Madonna has written a new song for the July 7 Live Earth concerts around the world and the first million downloads will result in a donation to a climate protection group, Live Earth organizers said on Thursday.

The song "Hey You" is now available for free download on Microsoft's home page (http://music.msn.com/green/Madonnadownload) and the software giant said it would donate 25 cents per download to the Alliance for Climate Protection for the first million downloads.

Madonna is one of dozens of artists who have agreed to perform in concerts in eight cities around the world on July 7 in a bid to spur governments, corporations and the public to take action on global warming.

She will perform the song during her appearance at the July 7 concert in London. Other concerts are planned for New York, Sydney, Tokyo, Shanghai, Johannesburg, Rio de Janeiro and Hamburg, Germany.
