Difficult topic and that makes it a great one. I'd second Amy Winehouse. She needs another breakthrough and it would be great marketing besides, crass marketing but at least a natural fit. Whoever the artist is, he or she or the band would have to be British, that's just given. Elvis Costello's a good choice too.
I'm thinking something torchy or crooned, so Winehouse works. My other hope might be Morrissey reunited with the Smiths for a one-off. If there's anything that might possibly bridge the gap between him and Johnny Marr I'd pray a signature Bond tune would be it. The Bond franchise reboot has made the character grittier. I've dismissed Lilly Allen since she doesn't have the anthemic oomph, though I like the different class and gender dynamic her lyrical approach might bring. But for a newer artist with some cred I'd say Bat For Lashes is a good choice.
ETA: Anyone but Joss Stone. That would be just too, too predictable.
