NME in Association with War Child Presents 1 Love is a charity album by various artists.[1] New Musical Express (better known as NME) is a popular music magazine in the United Kingdom which has been published weekly since March 1952.[2]

The compilation features past number one hits covered by acts from the early 2000s and was released to mark the NME's 50th anniversary, 10 years on from their Ruby Trax compilation that had also followed this format.

War Child is a charitable organization that works with children affected by war in Iraq, Afghanistan, Democratic Republic of Congo and Uganda. War Child works with children who have been hit hardest by the joint forces of poverty, conflict, and social exclusion.[3]

Other War Child albums include The Help Album (1995), Help!: A Day in the Life (2005), and War Child Presents Heroes (2009).
