The Kaiser Chiefs debuted a reworked version of their hit single Oh My God, thanks to The Chris Moyles Show.

Chris Moyles explained live on-air: "So I texted Ricky and I said “oh my god I can’t believe it, I’ve never spent this much time at home!” you know, lockdown… and Ricky replied with a text along the lines of ‘do you know, when I read this text I thought it was a brilliant idea and I thought yeah we’ll re-record it.”
Ricky added jokingly: "'Kaisers Assemble!’, I shouted, and I let off the Kaiser symbol above my house and yeah, we all did it from our houses, re-recorded it.”
