The tune is an updated version of Shout, the unofficial anthem of the England team during the 2010 FIFA World Cup, and will be unveiled this weekend.

Breaking the news on his Twitter page, Cowell writes: "Just heard the new updated version of DizzeeRascal (sic) and JKCorden's (sic) Shout - Incredible! Hopefully first radio play this weekend."

Last time me and JKCorden (sic) raised over 85K (sic) for Great Ormand st. (sic) Lets top that!"
