The song is the latest cut to be taken from War Child Record's new charity album, which is set for release next month.

War Child Records has unveiled the latest contribution to their forthcoming HELP(2) album.

The Last Dinner Party's Let’s Do It Again! is the third cut to come from the collaborative charity record, which is set for release on 6th March 2026 and can be pre-ordered here.

“It’s such an honour to be included on this record for a cause that is so close to our hearts,” The Last Dinner Party said. “The song is about the endless carousel of being in a relationship you know you shouldn’t be in, but giving in to the inexorable tug of returning every time you leave."

The Nothing Matters rockers added: "We’d like to say a huge thank you to War Child for asking us to be a part of the project and to James Ford for producing us, it was such a joy to work with him again!"

With the new single also comes a behind the scenes clip of the band recording the single, while being filmed and interviewed by children, as part of the creative for the project.

In addition to the musicians taking part, renowned filmmaker and Academy Award Winner Jonathan Glazer acted as Creative Director for HELP(2), working with Academy Films to oversee filming and art direction for the project.

On the decision to hand the reins over to kids, a press release explained: "Glazer and Mica Levi’s concept was simple - “By Children, For Children” - with his team handing the cameras over to children in order to see the world through their eyes and serve as a constant reminder of the reason for the endeavor to the audience and all involved.

"Each child operated their own small camera and was invited into the studios to film the artists recording without any restrictions. In addition, Glazer’s team worked with fixers and filmmakers in Ukraine, Gaza, Yemen and Sudan to gather footage filmed by children on the ground in these conflict zones. The results are a stunning piece of work that, ultimately, connects the album to the children the music seeks to help".

Let's Do It Again! follows the album's lead single Opening Night courtesy of Arctic Monkeys, which marked the band's first new material in four years.

The song also acts as an album-opener for the record, which was created "to engage music lovers globally in support of War Child's vital work delivering immediate aid, education, specialist mental health support, and protection to children affected by conflict around the world."

This month also saw the release of Flags, seeing Blur and Gorillaz frontman Damon Albarn, work alongside Fontaines D.C. frontman Grian Chatten and spoken word artist and performance poet Kae Tempest.

The new song also features a stellar line-up, including Smiths legend Johnny Marr, Dave Okumu, Adrian Utley (Portishead), Gorillaz bassist Seye Adelekan, Ezra Collective’s Femi Koleoso, and a 43-piece children’s choir.
