Cee Lo Singing 'Thank You' To Firefighters

CINCINNATI (AP) — Cee Lo Green isn't forgetting volunteer firefighters.

The Grammy-winning singer-songwriter will record "Thank You," another rewrite of his hit song known in its PG-rated version as "Forget You." Procter & Gamble Co.'s Duracell brand is counting on Cee Lo's help to power up a campaign to donate batteries to volunteer fire departments.

P&G hopes to give 20 million batteries, worth $8 million retail.

Cee Lo has a personal interest. His family credits volunteer firefighters with pulling his mother from a serious car wreck.
