You can hear the record and support the campaign to find missing people by downloading it either at www.latestrecords.co.uk or at www.missingpeople.org.uk The record has been put together with missingpeople.org.uk (formerly the National Missing Persons Helpline), the UK’s only charity that works with missing and unidentified people, young runaways, their families and others who care for them.

John McCann, the uncle of missing Madeleine McCann helped Missing People to recently relaunch International Missing Children’s Day on 25th May with a large scale projection of missing children on Marble Arch.

Eminemmylou says, “I like to write songs and raps that people relate to, and in the case of Missing, the message is that this is a national and international problem that causes so much personal heartache, and I want to support the work of Missing People who work hard to find and reunite people.”

The song was recorded at Church Road Studios and produced by Julian Tardo and Bill Smith. And the remix is by Obi Mhondera from 33Hertz (whose recent remixes include Natasha Bedingfield, Macy Gray and Christina Aguilera’s Hurt).

Already it’s been played on thirty radio stations across the UK. Go on, buy it now and help missingpeople.org.uk to find missing children and adults NOW!
