Brian May and Roger Taylor of Queen and Paul Rodgers - who now tours with Queen as lead singer - released the World Aids Day track, Say It's Not True on 31 December.
The group originally issued the track as a free download for World Aids Day to support Nelson Mandela's 46664 HIV/AIDS campaign.
In a response to public demand, the rockers have now made the song available as a commercial CD single release.
The song carries the message that HIV/AIDS is something that can affect any one of us. Roger Taylor, the band's drummer, wrote the track as a gift to Nelson Mandela and performed an acoustic version of the song nightly during the Queen + Paul Rodgers' 2005 tour.
Each time the band dedicated it to Nelson Mandela work to bring people and politicians together to fight HIV/AIDS and make the necessary drugs treatment available.
