Prince always recorded his vocals alone in the studio. That's how he did his best work. He couldn't do that there, and he was not going to be on any recording if he didn't feel that he was at his best. He offered to do a guitar solo on it, but Quincy told him flat out we need you to sing not play guitar. Prince did support the cause by submitting a song for the project, and he sent Sheila E. there as a representative from his camp.

Love Prince, hard to think of anyone who was as talented at, well literally everything, every instrument, lyrics, production. The things that made him great also made him a bit of a control freak. I could name other musical geniuses that I might say the same about, but none as overall talented or creative as Prince. I have often thought over the years that he could have enacted so much more change in the world, but he lived in his head mostly. As I do, and many of us do. So it's not a criticism. I think it's what makes Prince the enigma that he was.

In 1984/85 Africa, specifically Ethiopia suffered a severe drought, that killed millions from famine. This song was made to give aid to Africa and raised over 100 million for the cause. No artist took any money. Now, if you notice during this, that there is absolutely no racism happening. No segregation, no egos, just respect for each other and legends coming together as human beings to help a great cause. That's the way it should be. People helping people. If everyone did this we would be a better world.

This all started with the world watching the famine in Ethiopia on our TV sets and a couple of singers in England deciding they needed to do something. They put together a super group of British Pop stars and produced "Do they know its Christmas?" In 1984. They raised a little over $10mil (a heck of a lot of money back then). The following year Harry Belafonte wanted to do an American single to help. He, ken kragen, Lionel Richie, Kenny Rogers, and Stevie Wonder started putting it together. Once Quince Jones got involved he kind of took it over and basically told everyone what they would and would not be doing. He checked everyones egos at the door and brow beat everyone into submission, which apparently was needed because everyone kept putting evything off including writing the song itself. When it was all said and done they raised over $60mil. As soon as production wrapped on "We are the world" Quincy Jones called David Foster and said we need to do a Canadian version. So in 1985 Canada pop stars echoed their American colleagues with the single "Tears are not enough". Later a huge concert event was put together called Live Aid that went on to raise more money. While this all went down the Heavy Metal guys were bummed that no one asked them to join so they did their own and in 1986 released "Stars".

1985.... what a year. I was in the 7th grade when this song came out. Such an amazing accomplishment to get that much talent in one room. Haven't seen anything like that since. Who couldn't feel better after hearing this. I grew up listening to all of these artists. Great memories. I still get chills hearing this 40 years later. R.I.P. to the amazing singers who are no longer with us.

Youre right, gen x is undefeated. Im so happy i grew up in the 80s. We had some great times. Our music and friends helped us get through some traumatic times. Glad you loved the video and the effort all the stars gave us.

Janet Jackson did not appear in this video. Her brothers and sister, Latoya were there. Janet hadn't hit her ' Control' stardom until the next year.

I was 18 when this came out. This is my voice, my pack, my heart and soul. My time machine. If I can go back to '85, I would leave in a NY second. And all those snacks you mentioned, they tasted so much better back then as well. Goddess bless your Rickk

The famine in Africa was/is horrific. I was a young girl, and it was traumatic. I begged my mom to save just one child. It made her cry to explain she couldn't "get us a child". My family donated, and she showed me the donations, but, the commercials and PSA just kept coming. I still cry when I listen to this song. The talent and the care that went into it is amazing, but the children were dying.

Every time I watch an American's reaction to this video, I'm surprised to see that I, a Brazilian, can recognize many more artists.

They were told when arriving to leave their egos at the door. It was for a good cause and they all did amazing. There was a drought in Africa and this was to raise money to help the starving over there. They had celebrities live on tv answering the phones for donations. It truly was an amazing thing.
