(Dave Hogan/Getty Images)A growing crowd of chart-toppers is queuing up to participate in music producer and acerbic TV talent show judge Simon Cowell's charity single for Haiti, with Jon Bon Jovi, Kylie Minogue, Robbie Williams and Mariah Carey among those who've signed on.

 

Cowell announced last week that he would produce the benefit single after Prime Minister Gordon Brown asked him to aid Britain's Haitian earthquake relief effort.

 

The single, a cover version of R.E.M.'s stirring ballad Everybody Hurts, will be exempt from sales tax in the U.K., and R.E.M. has waived its royalties for the project.

 

The participating artists — all donating their time — are recording separate parts at studios in London, Los Angeles and elsewhere. Minogue is reportedly sending in her segment from an unidentified location where she is working on her new album.

 

Others who are preparing to or have already laid down their contributing tracks include Rod Stewart, Mika and Michael Bublé. Still reportedly set to join in are Miley Cyrus, Susan Boyle and James Blunt.

 

Cowell is working with songwriter and producer Steve Robson, who has penned music for the likes of Rascal Flatts, Carrie Underwood, Leann Rimes and Faith Hill and also collaborated with Take That, Westlife, Leona Lewis and James Morrison.

 

Cowell has said he hopes to complete the single by Feb. 7.
