'Not Gonna Leave You Stranded...'

Speaking to a global audience of tens of millions, George Clooney, the prime mover behind 'Hope for Haiti Now' described the earthquake that hit the Carribean island on January 12 as 'a tragedy that reaches across all borders, all boundaries...the Haitian people need our help. They need to know they are not alone.'

A stellar cast of musicians and actors, performing in three locations, included Madonna, Beyonce, Bruce Springsteen, Coldplay and Jennifer Hudson. In London, Jay-Z, Bono, The Edge and Rihanna performed 'Stranded (Haiti Mon Amour)' a song written and produced within the last week.

pheijlands - 23 January, 2010 stranded Sorry guys.. die hard fan for years, but not liking this song.. As a matter of fact. Hating it

mattybono - 23 January, 2010 amazing What a brilliant night. Some hard stuff to watch but the turning point for Haiti. Great song too (just downloaded it!). Can't wait til the album's ready! StevieWonder was brilliant too!

Vindy - 23 January, 2010 Bad song - Good cause I've been a U2 fan for a very long time. And Bono's voice is good, but is toned down by Rihanna's. Rihanna does not fit in this song at all.. Bono should be the lead singer, and not backing vocals... I support Haiti, but they deserve a much, much better song.

grace_u2 - 23 January, 2010 Brilliant it's so interesting and metaphorical I really like it - 3 different vocal styles interchanging so none is left stranded - they juxtapose really well. Really great chorus - and I love the ending. Have pre-ordered! cant wait to download!

Yogic - 23 January, 2010 Human Life Line What a powerful Strand of Humanity providing a Life Line to the beautiful people of Haiti... Stranded sooo very on target for the on going not going to leave you stranded Haiti cause.... Peace : ).

mariannemo - 23 January, 2010 Sound check-Bono's mike I loved the song especially the chorus but I really wish I could have heard Bono's voice. Bono never minds sharing the spotlight but please turn his mike on.

carmelp - 23 January, 2010 love it love the song, love the collaboration - well done all.

LaPao - 23 January, 2010 HELP HAITI PLEASE ! I'M OVERWHELMED...THINKING IN ALL OF YOU DEAR BROTHERS ! GOD WILL ALWAYS BE THERE.

BarbaraW - 23 January, 2010 Hope For Haiti - Stranded Great song - Not Gonna Leave You Stranded.

moguy - 23 January, 2010 not u2 but for haiti good song for a good cause

Gchemaly - 23 January, 2010 grand merci! Thank you Bono and the Edge for your gift of self for my homeland and my people. Knew I loved you for a reason! see you in miami!

KASTIAS - 23 January, 2010 WHERE WAS LARRY AND ADAM ? Bono and Edge without Larry and Adam ,well it just does not work no matter who they circle themselves around !

Panth - 23 January, 2010 Sorry but It was written in a few days and shows. Rihanna takes alot away from it. Sorry but, they took time away from the album for THAT?

stevenmac - 23 January, 2010 Stranded Have to agree w/pheijlands. If there was no video, I wouldn't even know that Bono was on the track.

caz63 - 23 January, 2010 caz63 have listened to the song afew times now and each time i like it more.

jmb1304 - 23 January, 2010 Stranded Love it!! Brilliant choice of artists. I can't stand rap myself, but this is a charity song, and it will appeal to a wider audience than if it was only U2. Thus, it will make more money for the people of Haiti.

- 23 January, 2010 Great song! Unlikely collaboration, but it worked brilliantly! I'm glad to see that 100% of the proceeds as well as the donations are going to the Haitians. We feel the loss and sorrow all the way here in Boston. I can't say enough about Bono and U2's contributions to humanity. Thank you U2!

theu2movement - 23 January, 2010 Can't hear it! Aw I can't hear bono :( His mic sounds really low.

harkingill - 23 January, 2010 Very Inconsiderate to slag off song It doesnt matter how good or bad the stranded song is the point is its trying to raise money for a very needy cause. Why dont you just donate and stop being so picky. This is a very worthwhile cause! Anyway I think the song is good! Its great to see people helping!

jm3163 - 23 January, 2010 Love It I heard this song on MTV and I thought WOW, this is a great song. More than likely I will buy it. I am certain it will raise a lot of money for this serious cause.

Ecuadorian - 23 January, 2010 Awesome song God bless you guys Haiti needs lots of help

hansteddy - 23 January, 2010 paulsonandy a little more Bono vocals in the mix,please.

tristandavid3303 - 23 January, 2010 Stranded Great music. Not a fan of Jay-Z. To much Jay-Z Would have been a great song with just Bono and Rihanna.
