We Are The World
Yesterday was Michael Jackson’s birthday.
The report said he celebrated his 50th birthday by watching children’s cartoons（Peter Pan?) . But I’d like to listening his We Are The World again and again whole day.
I must acknowledge that I don’t know much about Michael Jackson himself and his music. But I still remember how I was deeply affected when I heard the song at the first time.
The report said Michael Jackson co-wrote “We Are the World” with Lionel Richie, released worldwide to aid people in Africa. The single became one of the best-selling singles of all time. But Michael Jackson finished it in just half an hour!
More people began to care the situation of kids in Africa from then on, including me. Thank you forever, Michael Jackson!
There comes a time
When we head a certain call
When the world must come together as one
There are people dying
And it’s time to lend a hand to life
The greatest gift of all
We can’t go on
Pretneding day by day
That someone, somewhere will soon make a change
We are all a part of
God’s great big family
And the truth, you know love is all we need
We are the world
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
Send them your heart
So they’ll know that someone cares
And their lives will be stronger and free
As God has shown us by turning stone to bread
So we all must lend a helping hand
We are the world
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
When you’re down and out
There seems no hope at all
But if you just believe
There’s no way we can fall
Well, well, well, well, let us realize
That a change will only come
When we stand together as one
We are the world
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
Happy Birthday, Michael Jackson.
A warmhearted people will always be happy!

That song inspirational every time I listen to it — especially the fact that popular musicians volunteered to be in it.

This song was recorded by USA for Africa (United Support of Artists for Africa). It was a charity composed by forty-five predominantly U.S. artists, led by Harry Belafonte, Stevie Wonder, Michael Jackson, and Lionel Richie.
USA for Africa Foundation raised considerable profits from the enterprises , which used for the relief of famine and disease in Africa and specifically to 1984–1985 famine in Ethiopia.
I hope superstars in China can also do something really good for the people of earthquake disaster area.

Agree with you.
The superstars do the things they can do to influence people or help people around them. We can do so.
