We want to raise funds for humanitarian charities, and raise morale. The group will donate money raised from the song to the Ukraine Humanitarian Relief Fund. David Gilmour was so moved by the performance that he called Nick Mason, bassist Guy Pratt, and keyboardist Nitin Sawhney and organized a recording session last Wednesday that featured video of Khlyvnyuk projected on the wall.

The result is “Hey Hey Rise Up.” It is the first new original piece of music the band has recorded since the 1994 album “The Division Bell,” and all of its proceeds will go toward humanitarian aid for Ukrainians.

Pink Floyd is releasing new music for the first time in 28 years, with proceeds going to humanitarian relief in Ukraine.

"We want to raise funds and morale. But if you can imagine, if those kind of things are going off, it could just as easily have been a piece over an inch across, which would have taken his head off.” "I hope it will receive wide support and publicity," Gilmour said in a statement on Pink Floyd's Instagram account. Khlyvnyuk’s a capella rendition of the song is featured in “Hey Hey Rise Up,” which takes its title from the last lines of the folk song. Gilmour has a personal connection to Ukraine. He has a Ukrainian daughter-in-law, and his grandchildren are half-Ukrainian. The grandmother of his daughter-in-law, who is Ukrainian, was in Kharkiv until three weeks ago, he told The Guardian. “He showed me this tiny quarter-inch piece of shrapnel that had embedded itself in his cheek,” Gilmour told The Guardian. “He’d kept it in a plastic bag.

You can see and hear the frustration in the leaders of the other world’s countries. You want to keep it in the news and keep people’s consciences active on the topic. The last thing I want to do is to rob the actual population because Russia is not full of terrible people. He loved the track, and I’m just thrilled for him and for us for taking a little step for humanity in the midst of all the inhumanity that’s been going on there. I’m going to let my mind be devoid of everything and just let it steer itself. I took his voice and put it into my recorder and played it back in time with a click track and then played along with it on my guitar. He said, “Could we do this on a FaceTime video call?” So I said, “Sure.” When he recognized me and he was assured that it was all for real, from then on, he was great. We want to spread this message of peace, and we want to raise the morale of the people who are defending their homeland there in Ukraine. So why not? Pink Floyd rushed to release the song quickly to raise awareness for the civilians suffering in Ukraine and to raise money for humanitarian relief in the country. I managed to get his number and I gave him a ring, and I think he was maybe a little suspicious of whether I was genuine or not. At the outbreak of the war, he told Rolling Stone he felt it was his duty to stick up for Ukraine for the sake of the world. That piece of singing immediately got me thinking of turning it into something.” So he sequestered himself in his studio, figured out the chords that would support Khlyvnyuk’s powerful vocals, and wrote what became “Hey, Hey, Rise Up” — the first new Pink Floyd recording in nearly 30 years.
