From the News Of The World.

"Irish band DeXtra is giving away all the profits from its new single to a fund set up for the victims of the Dublin bus tragedy.

The track "Angel From Heaven" will be released on the Internet.

Sean Reid, spokesman for the Dublin-based band, said "I know that all of us who live in the City are greatly distressed by the tragedy on the quays. The best we can do is offer some help and support to those whose lives have been shattered.

'Angel From Heaven' is a beautiful song and donating all its royalties is a major sacrifice for DeXtra. The song will be released for the St Patrick's Day parade, recognising the work done by Dublin Bus."

Several thousand free copies of the single will be handed out at the Parade.

Sean added "It will become a part of the healing process for the ordinary people of Dublin. It will also garner needed funds from accross the globe for the victims"
