"我們是讓日子變更美好的人,請伸出手來。”這句話在《We are the world》經典歌裏,重複了十幾次,感動了我至今。
Among the 45 stars who sang on “We Are the World” that night were huge-in-the-80s figures like Kenny Rogers and Willie Nelson; pop icons like Smokey Robinson, Tina Turner and Paul Simon; and musical giants like Stevie Wonder, Ray Charles and Bob Dylan. From NY/NJ flied to LA are Bruce Springsteen and Billy Joel.
The hosts were Michael Jackson / Lione Riche, they wrote the music piece, and the evemt received about $200 millions in today's money.
合唱從前天晚上唱到早晨五點才搞定,這是什麽精神,這是光、這是愛、也是要你捐錢支援非洲災民,後來這首歌也用於支援其它災難事件與活動。

第二個音樂裏就一人主唱,他的名字叫大膽小俺。
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
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 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
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 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
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 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 children
We are the ones who make a brighter day, so let's start giving

We're saving our own lives
It's true we'll make a better day, just you and mee
