Royal British Legion off to flying start in race to number one spot for Remembrance Sunday

November: The Royal British Legion’s ‘2 Minute Silence’ single is racing up the iTunes chart, currently sitting in the top 40.

‘2 Minute Silence’ features 23 of the UK’s best known faces including David Cameron, Bob Hoskins, The Saturdays and Jimmy Carr.

The Legion’s aim is to get ‘2 Minute Silence’ to the number one spot for Remembrance Sunday, leaving radio stations with no choice but to broadcast two minutes of silence.

Last week, Ladbroke’s offered odds of 4/9 for The Legion to get to number one for Remembrance Sunday, citing the charity as the firm favourite.

All proceeds from sales of the ‘2 Minute Silence’ single, available for download now, will go towards helping members of the armed forces community.

The Royal British Legion encourages the British public to download the single from www.silentsingle.com.
