    Valentine’s Day 2010: We Are The World 1985 Blast From The Past

    Sunday, February 14th, 2010 @ 4:06 pm | We Think

    “There’s a choice we’re making.
    We’re saving our own lives…”-Lionel Richie

    Nearly twenty-five years after the initial recording of the song created by the late Michael Jackson with lyrics by Lionel Richie, a new generation of Hollywood celebrities, singers, actors, models and people just known for being known, gathered to record a remake of the song that raised in 1985 more than $30 million for the charity USA For Africa.

    This new crop of celebrities met on February 1, 2010, almost 25 years after the first gathering headed by music producer Quincy Jones, to record the cover to raise money for the survivors of the recent devastating earthquake in Haiti.

    We’ve decided to revisit the original recording from 1985:

    We’ve posted the lyrics indicating which artist is singing what part.

    Lionel Richie
    There comes a time when we heed a certain call

    Lionel Richie & Stevie Wonder
    When the world must come together as one

    Stevie Wonder
    There are people dying

    Paul Simon
    And its time to lend a hand to life

    Paul Simon & Kenny Rogers
    The greatest gift of all

    Kenny Rogers
    We can’t go on pretending day by day

    James Ingram
    That someone, somewhere will soon make a change

    Tina Turner
    We are all part of God’s great big family

    Billy Joel
    And the truth, you know, love is all we need

    Chorus:
    Michael Jackson
    We are the world, we are the children
    We are the ones who make a brighter day
    So lets start giving

    Diana Ross
    There’s a choice we’re making
    We’re saving our own lives

    Michael & Diana Ross
    Its true we’ll make a better day
    Just you and me

    Dionne Warwick
    Send them your heart
    So they’ll know that someone cares

    Warwick & Willie Nelson
    And their lives will be stronger and free

    Willie Nelson
    As God has shown us by turning stones to bread

    Al Jarreau
    So we all must lend a helping hand

    Chorus:
    Bruce Springsteen
    We are the world, we are the children

    Well, well, well, well let us realize that a change can only come

    Kim Carnes
    When we stand together as one

    Chorus:
    We are the world, we are the children
    We are the ones who make a brighter day
