Divynls' 'I Touch Myself' Becomes Breast Cancer Awareness Anthem

This new a cappella version features some of Australia’s most famous singers. According to AdWeek:

Friends say her dying wish was that her 1990 hit song could become a reminder for all women to check themselves regularly for lumps and other signs of breast cancer. So Australian advocacy group Cancer Council NSW (New South Wales) worked with Amphlett’s widower and supporters to create the beautiful rendition below.

The singers are Connie Mitchell, Deborah Conway, Kate Cerebrano, Katie Noonan, Little Pattie, Megan Washington, Olivia Newton-John, Sarah Blasko, Sarah McLeod and Suze DeMarchi. You can watch interviews with each of them on Amphlett’s YouTube channel.
