@MrWwedabomb man quit with that hate on Justin Bieber, why can't society just accept the fact he makes good music and just trying to have a good time, he's doing what he loves and making money, can;t we just focus at the video at hand and stop bringing unrelative things into videos? This has to one of the greatest songs ever written and performed. I respect all these artists. Living & Nonliving legends. RIP to the lost ones.
remember seeing this when it launched,and for the oe who said ogh we have a version that would beat this???thats fuking idiotic,,it wasnt song wars ,it was musical super talents coming together to help the less fortunate than us,the song or the n=band didnt matter,it was the awareness that counted...uk and us versions were both amazing,and as was ferry accrosss the mersey..point being,its not a competition,,,,its talent helping the needy...with brilliant music...love yew all...
greatests collaberation of talented musicians ive ever heard...gotta love brother ray all of them checking their egos and playing a small part in a bigger picture
thats why quincy jones had a sign there "check your egos at the door"Micheal was on top at the time...however the other talented singers were amazing,...And Brother Ray was like the father of them all
i can't believe this video has so little views.... i can't understand why people would rather view other music, when it's not good, everything else, compared to this, is trash....
For everybody who is asking "who is ...." These people are all legends. They were chosen for their unmistakable voices. Yes, Michael was wonderful...but don't overlook Steve Perry, Dion Warwick, Kenny Loggins, Daryl Hall, Willie Nelson, Al Jarreau, Billy Joel, Paul Simon, Diana Ross and of course, Lionel, Bruce, Dylan and Brother Ray. Notice those who didn't get a line, Bette Midler, Lindsey Buckingham. What a room of talent! Never will this talent be duplicated.
@death4some Kenny Rogers is the gray guy in the video and this was done at his studio; Kenny Loggins is singing with Steve Perry....maybe thou should get facts straight before commenting, umm, just sayin'
@MomokoSuyako Right...and I left out several others, too....Kenny Rogers, James Ingram, Tina Turner, Diana Ross, John Hall, Cyndi Lauper, Kim Carnes, Huey Lewis, Quincy Jones, Harry Belefonte, Dan Ackroyd, Jackson family members, and, I think I see at least two of the Pointer Sisters in that crowd and possibly others. Prince was supposed to show, but said he didn't do "group" songs, and Waylon Jennings left because he didn't like the song.
@TheMissi68 You'd get no complaint from me, but I do enjoy watching this amazing group. I just got this from Amazon (it's dirt cheap)...the dvd's are about 2 hours and I love all the behind the scenes stuff....not enough of Stevie tho.
I love Michael Jackson. He is/ was the sexiest man alive. I wish he was still alive. Even though he was crippled, he was still great. I know in my heart that he never ever touched little boys. He cared about the world so much that his brain didnt even know what touching people was. I mean, he wrote this song fo christ sake. So all you haters can shut up. Because i bet your just jealouse cause you loved him and you wanted him to touch you.
I el ultimo tema en comun que nos unio a todos en un moento de nuestras vidas, creo que compramos el disco e hicimos una buena obra de caridad......
Creo todos juntos cantamos alguna vez , and by the way fue la estapa que mas enamorado y feliz estuve en mi vida......Gracias Dios por esos inolvidables momentos. que jamas se saldran de mi corazon.......
@ strikingpurestars....this was for the famine in Africa from what i remember....specifically Ethiopia. People there were dying in terrible numbers because of malnutrition. Unfortunately, many continue to do so.
Can someone tell me what happened to Africa? I know there was an earthquake in Haiti so they did this song. But I don't know why this song was for Africa. Was there an earthquake there or child soldier or something?
@chipaora I think that's kind of unfair. That room is filled with some of the best singers and songwriters (including Bob Dylan who a large amount of people consider the best songwriter and one of music's most enduring faces from 1962- ) in that room. I would say most of them are geniuses in their own right.
gosto muito dessa musica:pessoal da uma olha dinha no video clip que eu fiz ele está assim:Clip meu pai me falou.a primeira imagem do video é uma menina com os braços aberto.valeu
this song is just amazing it brings so many emotions...and the way every one sang was just perfect by showing there own expersions..and sang with feelings and pride show that they care about the world
Somewhere along the way music just went down down down. The evidence is undeniable, once you have jb starting the rendition of this song for Haiti you know the world is totally & utterly fucked up.
OMG I can't believe it, time goes that fast, I remember this just like it was today. With all my appreciations and respect to Ray Charles, Michael and the all the survivors.
