Bob Geldof's Band Aid 30 song 'Do they know it's Christmas' has entered the singles chart at number two.

The celebrity Christmas carol that featured Bono, Paloma Faith, Ellie Goulding, and Ed Sheeran among others includes lyrical changes from the 1984 original to raise money for anti-Ebola charities, Stuff.co.nz reported.

Geldof presented the song on the 'X-Factor' talent show on channel ITV and said that it was about "the most anti-human disease', which prevented physical contact because of fear of contagion.
