USA for AFRICA - We Are The World "We Are the World" is a 1985 song written by Michael Jackson and Lionel Richie, produced (More) "We Are the World" is a 1985 song written by Michael Jackson and Lionel Richie, produced and conducted by Quincy Jones and recorded by a supergroup of popular musicians billed as USA for Africa. The charity single was intended to raise funds to help famine relief efforts in Ethiopia. <br />Harry Belafonte initiated the idea for a fundraising effort. His manager, Ken Kragen, suggested the multi-artist approach, inspired by the success of the British supergroup Band Aid and their 1984 fundraising single "Do They Know It's Christmas?" <br /> <br />The performers gathered at A&M Recording Studios in Hollywood, California, on January 28, 1985. Kragen selected the night of the American Music Awards to ensure as many artists as possible could attend. Jones famously advised them, in his written invitation, to "check your egos at the door." In all, 45 musicians attended the recording session, including Bob Geldof, who had arranged the Band Aid effort in the United Kingdom. Lead vocals were rotated among 21 of the performers, including Kenny Rogers, Lionel Richie, Michael Jackson, Tina Turner, Billy Joel, Steve Perry, Bob Dylan and Bruce Springsteen. <br /> <br />Columbia Records donated their manufacturing and distribution costs to the effort. "We Are the World" hit stores on Tuesday, March 7, 1985, and all 800,000 copies sold out before the end of the weekend. It debuted on the Billboard Hot 100 chart at number twenty-one. On April 5 (Good Friday in that year), more than 5,000 radio stations played the song at the same time. It became the United States’ number one single on April 13 and held the position for four weeks. <br /> <br />The song went on to win 1985 Grammys for Song of the Year, Record of the Year and Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group. <br /> <br />Ultimately, the single sold 7.5 million copies in the US. It was released on an album, We Are the World, which sold over three million copies. In addition to "We Are the World," the album included previously unreleased songs by Prince, Springsteen, Turner and other artists. It also included another famine relief fundraising song, "Tears Are Not Enough", which was performed by Canadian supergroup Northern Lights. <br /> <br />Including revenues from the single, the album, the video and related merchandise, "We Are the World" raised about $50 million for famine relief. <br /> <br />On The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, which was aired September 12, 2006, Lionel Richie mentioned that "We Are the World" had 32 lawsuits brought up against the song. <br />------------------------------------------------------------------------------ <br />Performers <br /> <br />Solo vocalists (in order) <br /> <br />There comes a time when we heed a certain call (Lionel Richie) <br />When the world must come together as one (Lionel Richie & Stevie Wonder) <br />There are people dying (Stevie Wonder) <br />Oh, and it's time to lend a hand to life (Paul Simon) <br /> <br />The greatest gift of all (Paul Simon/Kenny Rogers) <br />We can't go on pretending day by day (Kenny Rogers) <br />That someone, somehow will soon make a change (James Ingram) <br />We're all a part of God's great big family (Tina Turner) <br />And the truth (Billy Joel) <br />You know love is all we need (Tina Turner/Billy Joel) <br /> <br />( CHORUS ) <br />We are the world, we are the children <br />We are the ones who make a brighter day so let's start giving (Michael Jackson) <br />There's a choice we're making we're saving our own lives (Diana Ross) <br />It's true we'll make a better day just you and me (Michael Jackson/Diana Ross) <br /> <br />Well, send'em you your heart so they know that someone cares (Dionne Warwick) <br />And their lives will be stronger and free (Dionne Warwick/Willie Nelson) <br />As God has shown us by turning stone to bread (Willie Nelson) <br />And so we all must lend a helping hand (Al Jurreau) <br /> <br />( REPEAT CHORUS ) <br /> <br />We are the world, we are the children (Bruce Springsteen) <br />We are the ones who make a brighter day so let's start giving (Kenny Logins) <br />There's a choice we're making we're saving our own lives (Steve Perry) <br />It's true we'll make a better day just you and me (Daryl Hall) <br /> <br />When you're down and out there seems no hope at all (Michael Jackson) <br />But if you just believe there's no way we can fall (Huey Lewis) <br />Well, well, well, let's realize that a change can only come (Cyndi Lauper) <br />When we (Kim Carnes) <br />stand together as one (Kim Carnes/Cyndi Lauper/Huey Lewis) (Less)

They were founded by Johnny McElhone (formerly of the bands Altered Images and Hipsway) in 1986 and had their performing debut in March 1988 at Scotland's University of Dundee. They took their name from the 1984 Wim Wenders movie Paris, Texas. Their musical sound went from blues rock on their debut album Southside via the blue-eyed soul of White on Blonde to the disco pop of Red Book.++++++++++++++++++++++History Texas scored a UK hit in 1989 with their debut single "I Don't Want a Lover." This was taken from their debut album Southside, which went on to sell two million copies worldwide. The follow-up albums Mothers Heaven (1991) and Ricks Road (1993) were less successful and failed to provide the band with any further big hit singles in the UK. Although these albums sold well in France and Spain, this was not sufficient for the record company, meaning the band faced a lot of pressure with their fourth release. In the meantime Ellen DeGeneres had approached the band, and Sharleen Spiteri and Ally McErlaine flew to the U.S. to re-record a song from the third album, "So Called Friend," which went on to become the theme song to DeGeneres' US sitcom Ellen. In 1997 Texas came back with "Say What You Want"; this became their biggest hit single yet, peaking at #3. The album White on Blonde followed, entering at #1, where it would return a year later. Other hit singles from the album were "Halo," "Black Eyed Boy," and "Put Your Arms Around Me"; a reworking of "Say What You Want" with Method Man was released alongside album track "Insane." The band's fifth album, The Hush, was released in 1999 with the lead-off single "In Our Lifetime" which was a huge hit in the UK reaching number 4 and was included in the "Notting Hill" Soundtrack. This album went straight into the UK album charts at #1 like its predecessor. The second single, "Summer Son," became a massive hit across Europe reaching the Top 5 in the UK and France , also making #1 in Croatia and Lebanon, leading the album to become their best selling so far. In 2000, a greatest-hits album was released that included three new songs ("In Demand", "Inner Smile," and "Guitar Song"). The video for "In Demand" featured actor Alan Rickman, and in the video for the anthemic follow-up single, co-written by Gregg Alexander, Spiteri dressed up as Elvis Presley. "Inner Smile" was a big hit in Europe and was later featured prominently in the 2002 feature film Bend It Like Beckham. The song "Like Lovers (Holding On)" is featured during the ending credits of the animated feature film Titan A.E. In September 2002, Spiteri gave birth to her daughter Mysty Kyd. However, this did not prevent her from working on another album. Careful What You Wish For was released in late 2003 and was promoted by the lead single "Carnival Girl." This was a very different style from previous singles and featured the rapper Kardinal Offishall. Unfortunately, many disliked this perceived change in direction, and although the album was more traditional pop, it sold far less than the previous three releases. A ballad, "I'll See It Through," was released at Christmas time, but by then the project was dead and buried. In the television show The Office, fictional character David Brent claims that Texas used to open for his band, "Foregone Conclusion," before he gave up music to manage the Slough office of Wernham Hogg, a paper supply firm. The band returned in mid-2005 with the single "Getaway," which entered the UK Top 10, the video for which was shot by Christopher Doyle and directed by Tim Royes. The single "Can't Resist" and album Red Book followed in the autumn. On Red Book the band collaborated with The Blue Nile singer Paul Buchanan on a track called "Sleep," which entered the UK charts at #6 in January 2006. British comedian Peter Kay scripted the music video to this song, which mainly consisted of spoofs of famous love scenes. The BBC One charity show Children in Need showed a preview on November 18, 2005, featuring a spoof on Lionel Richie's "Hello", Ghost, and An Officer and a Gentleman. Surprisingly, "Sleep" outsold the lead single. The potential fourth single "What About Us" was released as a promo-only issue, perhaps indicating a terminal loss in popularity. In 2005 Sharleen Spiteri was featured in the song "Stirb nicht vor mir // Don't die before I do", by the German band Rammstein's Rosenrot album. On September 24, 2007 the band released The BBC Sessions, including radio sessions spanning from 1989 to 2005, with extensive liner notes and interviews with Sharleen Spiteri. Cover songs include Eltmore James' "It Hurts Me Too", the Beatles' "I've Got a Feeling", and Ashford & Simpson's "You're All I Need to Get By." (Less)
