Soweto Gospel Choir and U2 collaborating for ESPN's World Cup coverage
South Africa's Grammy-winning choir Soweto Gosepl Choir once featured U2's Bono on their One track from their African Spirit album. This time, they are teaming up with U2 for some sound bites, or "inserts" about South Africa that will be used in ESPN's coverage of the World Cup. They also both performed at South Africa's anti-AIDS 46664 Concert benefit in 2003.

Here is some more info from ESPN
Commencing June 11, the network’s coverage will use specially recorded music by Soweto Gospel Choir recorded and filmed in South Africa, with music and live concert footage from U2’s record breaking concert at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, Calif., in October 2009. This collaboration will appear in every program throughout ESPN’s presentation of the 2010 FIFA World Cup including soccer highlights, match and studio coverage.
