WATCH: Harry and Jon Bon Jovi doing it for charity


Prince Harry met up with Jon Bon Jovi and the Invictus Games Choir for a special live recording session at the iconic Abbey Road Studios all in aid of the Invictus Games Foundation. The choir is made up of veterans and serving personnel from the British military.

Their song, called "Unbroken," was created by Bon Jovi to highlight the plight of veterans living with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. It will be released in March in support of @WeAreInvictusGames.

Proceeds from the sale of the record will go to the foundation that supports the Invictus Games, a sporting event for sick and injured veterans and which is also one of Harry's favourite charities.

Testing, testing????… • Recorded inside Abbey Road Studios, home to The Beatles and other music legends, The Duke of Sussex joins Jon Bon Jovi and the Invictus Games Choir for a special live session in aid of the Invictus Games Foundation. The song being played, called ‘Unbroken’, was created by Jon Bon Jovi to shine a spotlight on those veterans living with Post Traumatic Stress Injury (PTSI), to honour their service and acknowledge the strength of the Armed Forces community. The Duke and JBJ are both strong supporters of the military community, with The Duke founding the Invictus Games in 2014. The Invictus Games Choir, made up of wounded, injured and sick veterans and serving personnel from all services and different ranks of the UK Armed Forces, have come together to use the power of music to aid their recovery. Although The Duke was unable to sing, leaving the vocals to the professionals, the special single that was recorded in Studio 2 where The Beatles recorded 11 out of their 13 albums, and will be released in March in support of the @WeAreInvictusGames.

 During his time with Bon Jovi, Harry did a bit of recording himself, which apparently might actually see the light of day! But this is all we are getting for now.

While there, Harry also recreated one of the Beatles' best-known album covers on Friday, walking across the zebra crossing outside the Abbey Road recording studios in north London together with Bon Jovi, this time led by a military veteran in a wheelchair. Nice one all round!
