Some of the greatest artists' in the world were & are gay. Big deal, who cares what they prefer, as long as they provide good music! :) Freddie, Elton, etc..

[KenzaWoodstock]

Oh gosh, it's summer and I am listening to a christmas song ;d

but it's such a nice song, so that doesn't matter than !

[DAK41036]

this is an amazing song, 'it should be done again but for the children of america

[intigieko]

Mas que una gran cnción es un gran ejemplo de loque puede hacerse cuando se tiene la determinación de hacerlo, cuantass personas pudieron sobrevivir gracias a lo que se recaudo con esta canción no lo se, pero si solo una se hubiese salvado ya eso sería el mayor triunfo para quienes ayudaron a hacerla y para la vida misma

[LiveForever28]

Paul Weller is the coolest person of all time.

[18monthehoops88]

ふきだしウザい。

[therinator1oncp]

great song

[twinkletoesstar]

great song

[gherradora]

Esta canciòn llega a lo profundo del alma, pues la causa lo justifica, ver ese desfile de artistas, gracias a una persona que lucho por reunirlos, todos saben quien es,que dios lo bendiga,pero fue una injusticia no haber incluido a DM mi grupo prefirido por una canciòn prohibida en algunos paises, pero fue de gran manera incluido mi segundo grupo Duran Duran con todos sus integrantes,el mejor grupo en esa època.

[rachaelwhite1]

It is may and im listening to this.. because kindness should be shown throughout the year and not just at christmas! We should replace money with a cuddle and then life would be much easier :)

[chelsea25598]

Bob Geldof should have gotten a vasectomy when this video was made, his life would be much easier today!

[JoshRobertson142]

so much better than we are the world

[mrsmaz76]

the original and the best

[canuckoz]

What's with the speech bubbles???

[Snowdemoman]

@canuckoz The speech-bubbles is the supposed "subtitles".

Fails alot, though

[NuxingFutz]

Who's the singer @ 0:33?

[DeathWithinTenSteps]

@NuxingFutz

it's boy george

[aimforthesky909]

I love boy georges voices.

[monza2OO9]

"And there won't be snow in Africa this christmastime," of course not because you British fuckers have stolen Africa's own treasures, diamond mines and more, leaving their people starving. And until this day, its still happening.

[JohnnyJenkem]

After half a century of this crap, its time to accept reality: Blacks cannot feed themselves, clothe themselves, or govern themselves. Whatever aid is given will be used for guns, corruption, or to breed themselves into starvation yet once again.

Nature invented a vaccine for this problem in Africa nearly a haolf century ago: the HIV virus. Had it been allowed to run its course, Africa would be a better place for all.

[tikkisash]

@JohnnyJenkem Wow, So Much Hate! The rest of the world doesn't feel this way...especially as the blacks don't have much say in government in Africa. BIKO!!!!

[museart13]

sarcasm ? what ?

[museart13]

i'm confused as to why it says 'thank god it's them instead of you'..? can someone explain ?

[lemuixfan66]

@museart13

sarcasm

[ByJe55ica]

Its a tough concept that lyric, its saying (my understanding of it) that we (in the developed countries) are far better off than the 3rd world country, Africa ( certain parts of africa), where, they stuggle to survive and if the people in developed nations were to live in those circumstances, I doubt they cope..... [ continued next comment]

[ByJe55ica]

SO in other words, its saying consider yourself lucky to not be in their ( africas) position but rather be grateful for the luxury of living in a world where you don't have to fight to stay alive each day. even the other lyric- the greatest gift they'll get this year is life. This is my understanding of it, it may be different for many people.

[merkatmerkat]

@ByJe55ica The point is to understand how lucky you are (no matter how poor), because you're not in their position, and that you can help them.

And, yes, those poor people's biggest worry was to stay alive - they did not think about picking presents for their loved ones, but how to survive.

There's nothing wrong about the lyrics if you try to understand what they mean...

[smithiesBAM]

@museart13 its saying be thankfull for what you've got and hoild a prayer for those ho don't, bono really didnt wanna sing it

[WatEverMan2009]

****SCAM WARNING*****

If you get a call from a charity asking u to donate your old clothes to the starving people of the world, tell them to piss off. Trust me, anyone who can fit in your clothes aint fucking starving.

[tikkisash]

Nothing ever grows???? Africa is the most fertile nation. We just all need to buy from them.

[AndyMHinchcliffe]

"there won't be snow in Africa this Christmas time".. Whats the white stuff on top of Mt. Kilimanjaro?

Great song nontheless.

[sixnames]

@AndyMHinchcliffe It's ice mate, sorry.

[GremlinRipples]

How do I turn off the subtitles?!

[DHSucked]

It's next to the fullscreen button.

[Rocky341000]

Unfortunately you cant sorry . Try one of the other videos of this .

[KurtisICT]

hi GremlinRipples,

What you see there are annoatations. Until or unless YouTube changes it, for the time being, click on the little 'up arrow' on the YouTube player below-right, then click the little paper icon. It'll shut off the annotations for that video.

Kurtis -

[UTheGoalisSoul2]

A very young BONO, awesome! Great voices! This song rules.

[74camarolt]

Is the guy singing with Sting and Bono the lead singer from Duran Duran? Sounds like him.

[RichKnight2010]

Simon LeBon, the lead singer of Duran Duran.

[airdroid2]

[lemonadeforsale]

Ppl i agree anyone but gays lol sorry this is a great song and not all americans are ignorant I've personally have gone to peru several times for mission trips

[stevebridgeman]

My guess from your ignorant remarks is that you are American

[FatalToxin]

i agree.

[missqueenbean420]

WOW! Gay hate posts on this song? It was supposed to be about showing compassion to others.. So you'll feed the world as long as they are not gay?? That's real nice:( Obviously people posting hate messages have missed the point of songs like this one. Happy New year to everyone.. including the people who post hate and especially to the people that are still being hated by others.. and to the rest of mankind:) It's 2010 tonight Lets try to stop putting others down to make ourselves feel better??

[MANMADEDISEASE]

@missqueenbean420 u r right

we need to work 2gether

[cheeseybananas]

[Adnoydal]

Boy George (O'Dowd)

[dsrn1000]

tired of all this crap....dave nicks...x

[dogswick]

rustyben, you say white people will never love black people to the full ! well i take it you're black? if you're going to call white people racially hating names, completely unprovoked then i suppose its people like you who are the root of racial problems, perhaps you should find yourself an island all to yourself to live on. i've never been provoked into an argument on youtube before but you make my blood boil. now i guess your gonna come back with some retarded comment, just keep it to yrself

[justme2me]

merry xmas from uganda (africa)

[Supersteve0151]

Merry x-mas from Germany

It is the best chrismas song of the world

[daveyantony2008]

Rustyben is bit of a dick.Obviously not very educated. Great song tho.

[rockmeslowly79]

But if you really thik about it atleast they try to help out by putting there voice put there...well anyways merry christams from austin,tx....`09

[rockmeslowly79]

that is kinda weird they do say that...why?

[rustyben911]

listen to the song again and you will hear them say THANK GOD ITS THEM INSTEAD OF YOU now this prooves that they was taking the piss out of the starving in africa through this song wile trying to sell coppies of it to raise money to feed them but then also said FEED THE WORLD instead of FEED THE AFRICANS yeah another piss take in this song, just goes to show white people are always going to be full of SHIT and never love BLACK PEOPLE TO THE FULL, but i say FUCK WHITE PIG PEOPLE IN UK & USA

[Orik1990]

Yeah they're saying thank god it's them instead of you to illustrate that most people think in that selfish way and Feed the World instead of Feed the africans, well DUUUH! Just stating the obvious here but afrika isn't the only continent where hunger is present. There are plenty of Asian and South American country's where people starve.

[Adnoydal]

Michael Moore has become rich by preaching the rich must be taxed to feed the poor, but so far hes been eating all the food himself.

[Adnoydal]

Did any of these participants forego Mammon and instead dedicate their lives to feed the poor? Nope. They expect their fans to do that. The extent of their contribution was to get the message out at little cost to them.

Thats how things work.

[numantoo]

Merry christmas from Long Island New York!

[ScarletteM6]

"thank god its them instead of youuu" is not harsh its just sayinn would uu like it if it was youuu !!!!!

at end off day like 100 people maby more could have got water en foood becos of that songg !

[Hobbswolf190992]

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE :)

[BarzLenaz]

You too ;)

Merry christmas everyone!

[MrSilkable]

good, but, the subtitles completely ruin it, as it obscures half the picture. Really ruined it for me. Get rim of them, now.

[dazzlet666]

wicked tune!! merry christmas everyone where ever you are, who ever you are! x

[cgiavoni]

Always the best for Christmas.

Buon Natale

Ciao from Milan, Italy

[biggestROHfan6391]

Very touchy song, one of my favorite xmas tunes, merry christmas everyone!

BTW "Thank god its them instead of you"?

how messed up is that line!?

[sjrobertson84]

isn't the "tonight, thank god it's them instead of you" supposed to be ironic??

dont forget this was a big "raise money for charity" stunt, aiming to guilt people into donating!

[Scraggsy81]

'And tonight thank god its them instead of you'

A bit harsh isnt it Bono..You dwarf prick.

[sheao50]

Do u think he wrote the lyrics?

[Scraggsy81]

Doubt it.

[sheao50]

Then how is Bono the prick?

[Scraggsy81]

He choose to sing the part basically saying 'Thankgod those people in Africa are suffering and not the rest of us'..if you really listen to it. Its very a hypocritical.part of the song.

[josh312josh312]

@Scraggsy81

what a load of nonsense

bono has done all this work cos he hates the people in africa???

lol r u mad

[hoppah44]

@josh312josh312... its not about then people in Africa!! its about humans that r starving to death and the Bono hates Africa people, was probly more like "White Supremacy"..hell I hated them for that too!!..

[invaderant]

good song but no rain or rivers flow

no rivers in africa hey what about that river about 4,000 miles long ya that one the fucking nile

[sundimented]

Yeah fair comment, but Africa is massive, I was in Zimbabwe for 3 months during their winter, never saw rain all rivers were dry. but I suppose they have alot of rain during the summer months.

[AuShawster]

Merry Christmas from Canada.

[0l1v3r0wnzy0u]

this song way good and oringinal vesion best and merry christmas to all :)

[AnonymousXIII]

If they don't keep having kids, they'll be wiped out in a generation or two. High birth rate is part of their survival system, since so many die at young ages.

[smallersamg]

merry christmas from wales

;)

xxx

[AnonymousXIII]

You've got Sting in there twice, but I'm not objecting... he's worth two kudos, lol.

[AnonymousXIII]

At the time, there was a particularly nasty drought and famine in Ethiopia, and as a result, they were dying daily. The former Soviet Union was not yet former, at the point when this was made, and the need was immediate for food relief in Africa. The musicians wanted to help, so they did, end of story.

[ueks69]

Ohhh an no eurpeans, Asians or Americans have HIV ?

Generalization is the mother of all evil :)

The problem is not about how many or few inhabitants africa has, etiopia is a war ravaged country, it has no or very loosly inforced laws, and it sits in the ever growing sahel belt.

And with a evergrowing debt to EU and the US, go figure ;)

[metajna]

Good old times........

[kemezrPrzemek]

Wow! Bono without sunglasses! :))

[Jorindevil]

Lol it's a miracle! XDD!

[skyclaw441]

I love the synthesizer line in the back, absolutely beautiful.

[ueks69]

This song was about the 3 million ethiopians condeemed to death by starvation, if no one helped, not about jesus ;)

[boxlacrosserox]

what ever

[goldenkt]

I think everyone can figure that out for themselves... Pfft.

[boxlacrosserox]

PFFFFFFTTTTTTT

[MartyGras82]

This song rules!!!!

[mirNdalovesu]

bono! (:

[jzzr44]

@TaylorSwiftFanxx1

Thaks :P:P

[TaylorSwiftFanxx1]

Well I think you're completely missing the point of the song then. @ jzzr44, thank you so much. You're right, they need children but we shouldn't even have to be talking about this and telling these idiots that. If they don't have a right to have sex then neither do we. Why deny someone life? Leave them alone, okay? They can have sex if they want and you guys shouldn't need to be told that.

[john196680]

its real shame this planet we call earth has a race that believes money is important then  its own race shame on the the human race to see people died of hungar jesus christ would punish his children for what they have done to his planet we call earth are home and fellow treatment of his own brother and sister i ask one question why do we celebrate our father birthday if his chlidren has no respect for each other mankind will never change

[SimoneLovesDrums]

Lol thanks :) Someone already told me =P I like him.

[jzzr44]

well if you didnt relize they have sex so often because they need the children, more children more workers, and as most of them die they have sex lets say 10 times and get 5 babies, 3 of them grow up to be teenagers and have to help out with the money making. if africans didnt have sex so often there wouldent be any left and would makle next to know money

[georgesell123]

jzzr, u are right.. but people used to do it in rich countrys (like the UK) about a century ago, Kids died of lots of things so you had more of them. People need a younger generation to support them whatever country you're living in. People are giving you thumbs down because they don't like the message.

[0saintclark0]

Boy Georges voice really annoys me in this for some reason.

[smellykelly74]

we worry about getting our kids huge gifts on christmas, imagine not being able to feed them on a daily basis.

[ch0c0qu33n]

some people are so heartless people cannot afford contracetion and its only one of the problems some things are water born diseaes and cannot be helped in poor countries.

I cannot believe some people are so shallow as to disrespect and talk about other places that they dont even know about.

Seriously get a life and learn to appriciate it and give what you can to charity because you are fortunate enough to be rich but many people are born into poverty so show some heart and feed the world :)

[0saintclark0]

Don't be so ridiculous, AIDs and HIV are not the only diseases. There is also malaria, cholera, flu (which out there is a lot more serious). The only reason people haven't died out in the poorer sections of Africa is BECAUSE they have so many children.

[jonnyhill1]

VERY HARSH WORDS? OLOLOLOL YOU NOOBFAG thats the opposite, they are making us feel bad cos we have much more than them!

[TaylorSwiftFanxx1]

That is so, so horrible. I'm 14 and I have more sense than stevious26 and chax1971, who I'm assuming was born in 1971, making him 38. This is a beautiful song, my favourite Christmas song EVER and you guys are actually giving out ABOUT the Africans.. I'm Irish and when we were in the famine the Africans helped us out a lot. They were all very generous towards other countries so stop praising yourselves. They don't have the RIGHT to have sex? Honestly. Get a damn clue, faggots.

[PLCJockey]

@TaylorSwiftFanxx1 - I don't agree totally with Stevious26, but he has a point. AIDS and hunger are rampant, yet unprotected sex is the norm and the world just throws money at it without a plan. Just like the name of the band, this is a "band aid" solution.

[SimoneLovesDrums]

Who is the person at 0:34 ?

[GuzziHeroV50]

Boy George.

[SimoneLovesDrums]

Thanks :)

[ninjaman572]

lol when i was lil i always thought it was BEAVER WORLD lmao fail

[chax1971]

No Shit, AMEN brother...I was there in the 80's helping out, these lazy fuckers dont care, they now come to expect help from the rest of us....

Fuck feeding the world, take care of yourself and your family.

[smiffyboy13]

they ask us to feed the world so we give the world pollution and carbon emissions and now we have to stop...come on world make your mind up ¬_¬

[studio7031]

@smiffyboy13: It's because nobody's going to pay scientists etc to say everything will be OK.

Simply put I refuse to recycle and instead of energy saving bulbs I use 500 watt floodlights.

[iluvschnix]

And the only bells that ring there

Are the clanging chimes of doom at 1:26

[geowar42]

the newest version just doesnt have that feeling that this classic does. :)

[JtotheDplus3]

That's because the originals are always the best. But the bandaid 20 is pretty good itself.

[LilBlackEmoCat]

I love this. Its inspired me to go to Africa for charity work when I'm older :) We need to help 'feed the world'

[tottir0ma]

I prefer this to we are the world. the english are better!!

[tommybno3]

cant believe bob said he wasnt happy with this song, its quality. best thing he ever wrote although rat trap was class too

[FALCO64125]

this song is great !!!!!!!!!!

[nosurrenderirascum]

let the fuckers starve , were in own debt as it is without feeding those chimps
