This was at a time in history when I truly believe we ALL were beginning to genuinely come together. It wasn’t forced, and their was no agenda attached to it. Consciousness was think in the air. The collective awareness was blasting off. There was no “I’m better or more important than you” mentality here. Naturally, humans will come together… naturally, as we are all one! When moments like this happen, the powers that be, unfortunately, must throw a wrench into this natural advancement and human love, in order to find a way to divide and conquer. Which in itself is artificial, and an illusion. The illusion that we are apart from one another. Songs, like these, must never be forgotten about. As they are a reminder as to what we all really are, which is one infinite consciousness, connected to one another

James Ingram was such a talented singer who sang just before Tina Turner and later featured solo towards the end of the song. James had hits like Just Once and had great duets with Patty Austin, Linda Ronstadt and the incredible Secret Garden song by Quincy Jones with James, El DeBarge, Al B. Sure and Barry White.

Fun Side note on Springsteen in this video. He had just finished two nights in a row at the carrier dome in Syracuse NY where the shows were about 3 hours long. He jumped on a plane in the morning and flew to Los Angeles, rented a corvette then drove to the studio and parked across the street and was thrilled with the parking spot he got. Everyone else was brought in a Limo.

A brief History of how this came out. In 1983 a famine broke out in Ethiopia. A Canadian reporter broke the story. It got play in the UK. Bob Gelolf, of the Boomtown Rats, wanted to help, so Irish and British musicians got together to perform a song called Do they know it’s Christmas, written by Bob. David Foster, a famous music producer and writer, heard of it and thought Canada should do one. As a result Tears are not enough was recorded in the same manner as the British one. It raised 3 million dollars ( Canadian). America followed suit and USA for Africa was done. Geldof, an Irishman, was honorary knighted in 1990, by Queen Elizabeth the second, in 1990 for all the work he did for famine relief. Stay safe, stay sane, be well

Not entirely true, but it was a good turnout. We can't really say that the "That's What Friends Are For" cast was at the top of its game. But to get this sort of turnout today, they'd first all have to appear at the awards ceremony. For that to happen, the awards ceremony would have to actually mean something again. A lot of dominoes would have to fall before we even get to ego. I wouldn't put "True Colors" out there as a singer's song. I recommend some of her tracks from "Hatful of Stars" (1993). Kind of just out of being really famous and before kind of disappearing. The general sentiment is a good one, though.
