Midnight Oil, whose frontman Peter Garrett is now Australia’s Environment Minister, is joined on the new soundtrack by Serena Ryder, Lily Allen, Andre, Fergie, the Scorpions, and close to 40 other musicians, plus the voices of Annan and Desmond Tutu.
Their new refrain:
The time has come to take a stand,

How can we sleep while our beds are burning?
