CALM, Campaign Against Living Miserably, a charity dedicated to preventing male suicide in the UK, has launched its Torch Songs campaign to celebrate the power of music to 'lift us out of life's low points' and to coincide with International Men's Day.

Artists including Years & Years, The Vaccines, Twin Atlantic and Frank Turner have covered various songs to promote the campaign, and BBC Radio 1's Huw Stephens commented 'Music is a constant, a saviour in the world which is unique to everyone. We all know how much music means to us, and can help us sometimes. The artists involved, sharing their unique cover versions of their personal Torch Songs, are magnificent. The songs strike the right note; give you hope; remind you of the possibilities; remind you you're not alone. We launch Torch Songs with some spectacular talents sharing their intimate Torch Songs with us – it’s a great way to get people talking about talking'.
