Lyrics:
There comes a time
When we heed a certain call
When the world must come together as one
There are people dying
Oh, and it's time to lend a hand to life
The greatest gift of all
We can't go on
Pretending day-by-day
That someone, somewhere soon make a change
We're all a part of God's great big family
And the truth, you know, love is all we need
We are the world
We are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day, so let's start giving
There's a choice we're making
We're saving our own lives
It's true we'll make a better day, just you and me
Oh, send them your heart
So they know that someone cares
And their lives will be stronger and free
As God has shown us by turning stones to bread
And so we all must lend a helping hand
We are the world
We are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day, so let's start giving
Oh, there's a choice we're making
We're saving our own lives
It's true we'll make a better day, just you and me
When you're down and out, there seems no hope at all
But if you just believe there's no way we can fall
Well, well, well, well let us realize
Oh, that a change can only come
When we stand together as one, yeah, yeah, yeah
We are the world
We are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day, so let's start giving
There's a choice we're making
We're saving our own lives
It's true we'll make a better day, just you and me
We are the world
We are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day, so let's start giving
There's a choice we're making
We're saving our own lives
It's true we'll make a better day, just you and mee
We are the world (are the world)
We are the children (are the children)
We are the ones who'll make a brighter day, so let's start giving (so let's start giving)
There is a choice we're making

Oh, let me hear you!
We are the world (we are the world)
We are the children (said we are the children)
We are the ones who'll make a brighter day so let start giving (so let's start giving)
There's a choice we're making
We're saving our own lives
It's true we'll make a better day, just you and me, come on now, let me hear you
We are the world (we are the world)
We are the children (we are the children)

Hi Both, In 1984 the BBC sent a reporter to report on the famine in Ethiopia, with millions at risk of starvation due to the famine and a civil war that prevented food reaching the worst affected. It was shown on the evening news in October '84 (I think) and Bob Geldof (lead singer of the Boomtown Rats) saw the report and was shocked at the lack of action of 'richer' countries and governments in helping the starving. He decided that something must be done and as a singer with contacts in the music business he called his friends and colleagues and organised a charity single of multiple artists to raise money to send aid. Calling the collaboration 'Band Aid' with the song "Do They Know It's Christmas". As Bob and his co-collaborator Midge Ure were based in London and wanted to capitalise on the Christmas music chart he managed to get the artists and song recorded in a couple of weeks in November 1984. Due to Bob living in London at the time, and the speed of writing, organising and recording, Bob mainly managed to get UK artists and recorded the song in London. The song went to No. 1 in the UK. Following the success of Band Aid, and with American artists feeling that they weren't given the opportunity, USA for Africa was recorded a few months later. "We are the World" is a response to the lyrics in Band Aid's song of "feed the World, let them know it's Christmas time.." Bob and Midge continued the fund raising momentum by coming up with the idea of Live Aid - a concert in two locations (London and Philadelphia) with a global tv audience. If you can access a UK VPN the BBC did a really good documentary on Live Aid, which includes the evolution from the conception of Band Aid, the trials and tribulations of getting aid to the starving in Ethiopia through to the force of nature that Bob was in getting Live Aid off the ground and the success it was.

Harry Belafonte was inspired to organize the non-profit USA for Africa after Bob Geldof organized Band Aid and did the single Do They Know It's Christmas as a fund raiser. This was done before Bob Geldof decided to organize Live Aid but the cause was the same for all, famine in Ethiopia. It was truly a horrible situation. Belafonte then collaborated with Quincy Jones (record producer), Lionel Richie, Michael Jackson, Kenny Rogers, Stevie Wonder, and Ken Kragen (manager) to organize the fund raiser. We Are The World was written by Lionel Richie (solo artist and also lead singer of The Commodores) and Michael Jackson, recorded in January of 1985, and released as a single to raise money in March 1985. I believe they also did an album or maybe an EP? Your correction was right, Ray Charles was wearing a red shirt & glasses at 13:22 and 15:01, Stevie Wonder (blind, beads in hair) and Bruce Springsteen followed him. I recognize a lot of the people but not all. I put times below that they appear in this video. I'm not sure all the people in the chorus are actually in the video. I know some and don't see them. They performed this again live with additional artists at the conclusion of the U.S. Live Aid performances, also on youtube. Gives me chills. Loved the reaction, thanks!

While according to the official listing on the album Bob Geldof was involved, he actually wasn't, he walked out when seeing how an elaborate banquet was being brought in, so everybody could eat. He was so disgusted that he refused to participate in the song. Of course, his name was still on the list to add legitimacy to the song.

Nope, you were correct. This recording was done in the wee hours of the night after the American Music awards. Ray Charles was in the front with the coffee. He wasn't feeling up to it. Imagine being in your later 70s at 4:30am after an awards show. Quincy let Ray and James Ingram re record a day or two later and they super imposed the images over the night recording. Good eye. This was the 2nd leg of the fundraiser. 1st was Nov 1984's Do They Know it's Christmas? in the UK and the final blowout was Live Aid in July 1985, UK, US an AU music festivals. 3 ocean liners of money were raised for a famine in Africa/ Ethiopia. Bob Geldof was knighted by the Queen for organizing. This was a Huge deal in music history!

The woman singing with Micheal Jackson is none other than the Legendary Diana Ross, known for her "60's success with the group The Supremes. She was not related to Micheal, however, she was his second mother buy being a mentour. The other blind man singing with Bruce Springsteeen is none other than lengedary Stevie Wonder. The song was recorded after the 1985 Grammy Awards Show, the music director of the chorus you see in the video is lengendary music producer Quincy Jones, he left a sign outside the studio for all the artists that said, "Leave your ego at the door", because it was about a world crisis and not about fame and recognition.

Yes, Ray Charles probably went to the studio the big day and earlier or the day after. Some artists went to record some other day, like Bob Dylan who is seen alone clearly, also Ray Charles was probably helping composing and recording the track before everyone went into the studio, thats why he is seen with different outfits. I think Stevie Wonder is seen in two outfits, different days. But of course King Jackson did it all in one take and had to wait until Huey, Cyndi, and Kim got their stuff together and did their part. What an amazing day for any of them.

This is about 1 night in 1985. Right after an awards dinner, all of these Legends gathered together to sing Michael Jackson and Lionel Ritchie's song being directed by Quincy Jones. They received no payment and they checked their egos at the door. This is the one and only time this has ever been done. Michael was one of the youngest in this crowd. It raised 63 million dollars and sent it to Africa for drought relief. This will never happen again.

This was made after Bob Geldof asked Quincy Jones to lead the American effort on African aid. Written by Michael Jackson + Lionel Richie. Underrated. After the call-and-answer from Bruce Springsteen and Stevie Wonder, notice the ascending vocal belt from the late James Ingram. Singers like Mariah Carey and Morissette Amon use this technique. RIP to the fallen. The only non-American singing is Dan Akroyd. He is Canadian 🍁, from Toronto, ONT. David Foster, of Victoria, BC, wanted him to sing for the Canadian effort for African relief but American actress Donna Dixon, and wife of DA, and Quincy Jones convinced him otherwise. Some gentle jabbing that two producer/writer QJ did! They still remain friends! LOL David Foster organized a Canadian supergroup for African relief. Bryan Adams, Anne Murray, Geddy Lee + Neil Young are some of the singers. 🇨🇦 Suggested next video: Northern Lights sing Tears Are Not Enough. Link: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/edCCmpiTrZe0p5s.html.

You are right - a few met to fix the whole version among Them Ray Charles and Bruce Springsteen . The lot were able to mert because of an Award show near by . They worked the whole night and you Can see it in a video with Jane Fonda. A few months later another session called Live Aid took place in London and Philadelphia and world wide transmission by TV to 1.9 billion to support the same cause. Find Queen at Live Aid 1985 - the best rockkoncert ever- completely bare with no special Aid - just pure Music .

Remember Ray Charles like Stevie Wonder was blind. That was Latoya Jackson with the headband.

Ray Charles is wearing the red shirt with a solo at the end. Stevie Wonder was in the multicoloured shirt.

I’m dead I couldn’t wait until you realized that the ‘blind guy” wasn’t Ray Charles is actually Stevie Wonder and you never mentioned anything the 2 times Ray Charles went on 😂

You were correct. The man holding the cup was Ray Charles and that was also him singing the solo at the end wearing a different shirt. I think the last few solos were filmed separately from the rest of the video. If you watch on those last solos the background and the filming style are different than the shots of the whole group together.

Legends. One & All. Did you see Cindi literally jump for joy? @ 5:19 Not since the times of the Jackson Five has there been so many of the Jackson family on one stage. Jackie, La Toya, Marlon, Randy, and Tito. I HIGHLY recommend Helly Luv's Revolution. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nLJ9p7eC2M-7Zn0.html

No. You don't have to find a day when 20 singers will come. You have to find 20 singers, who will come on the day you choose. Very different.

Ray Charles is indeed in it. But the one who you thought was Ray Charles is Stevie Wonder. Ray is the one in sunglasses wearing the red shirt. The song raised $20 million for Africa. Ethiopia was going through genocide at the time.
