The Wanted have released a new version of their single Gold Forever to raise money for The Brain Tumour Charity after the death of band member Tom Parker.
Parker died aged 33 in March, 17 months after he was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumour. After Parker’s family requested Gold Forever be played at his memorial service, band members Max George, Siva Kaneswaran, Jay McGuiness and Nathan Sykes created an updated version of the track entitled Gold Forever (For Tom).
The new version was played at Parker’s funeral in south-east London on April 20. It was initially first heard by the public in a moving compilation tribute video to Parker, which the group shared on their official social media accounts shortly after his funeral with the message ‘Sleep well brother x’.
After a warm response from fans, the band have now made the song available for download to allow supporters to keep the track in memory of Parker.
