We Are The World (25 years later) - HAITI

Here's a song that brings the world together. Enjoy.



And here's the original 'We Are The World' written by Michael Jackson and Lionel Ritchie. The purpose was also to unite the people around the world to help Africa. Why do you think Africa needed our help then? Do a quick search and post your reply in 'Post a Comment' below.


p.s. Can you try to name as many artistes as you can?

    when the earth quakes we’ll help you make it through the storm
    when the floor breaks a magic carpet to stand on
    we are the World united by love so strong
    when the radio isn’t on you can hear the songs
    a guided light on the dark road your walking on
    a sign post to find the dreams you thought was gone
    someone to help you move the obstacles you stumbled on
    someone to help you rebuild after the rubble’s gone
    we are the World connected by a common bond
    Love the whole planet sing it along

    [Kanye West]
    Feeling like the Worlds end
    we can make the World win
    [Will-I-Am]
    Like Katrina, Africa, Indonesia
    and now Haiti needs us, the need us, they need us

    [Chorus - All]
