I am Haitian so i'm biased by liking the Haiti one more. rewatching this, I remembered what I felt hearing this song for the first time. I am proud to be haitian and with everything that's going on in haiti, this songs brings back chills to me.

Great reaction! I love how you just react by not making unnecessary pauses of the song!

[@KHallesy]

Your reaction was amazing. I grew up with the artists in the first one so I like that one 100 times more. The one for Haiti has some good moments but it seems more commercialized to me and I just prefer things old school! But having Michael in the new one was great because of all the people in both versions he still is the one who stands out to me as the one with the most raw talent.

[@powerthroughlife2020]

I think it’s great they made a golden era song renewed for Haiti’s I think that is great and amazing and why we stop at a song and don’t continue to do more in the eyes of the public I’ll never truly understand. But which version is incomparable. First is golden. The geniuses who made it and put it together can never be recreated. Phonically sound, perfect in harmony and lyrically genius is the first one. But love that Haitis is catching love. We should be doing this for all impoverished nations. All credit to Lionel Richie, Michael Jackson and Quincy “Q” Jones.

[@sarge6082]

ya was good to see artists in 2010 come together and do a remix of the the 80s version,,, sad thing is the country is no where near as united as we were back then,,, was nice to see NIP in there as well as many actors was involved in this one,, Jeff Bridges, Vin Diesel , ect,,,

Both versions are great in their own ways and incredible how many talented artists joined to do it. It is hard to believe it has been 10 years since Haiti had that earthquake and then a year later Japan got hit by earthquake and tsunami. I do wish this song was played more, so much hate has been going on, there is still good it just feels like people are seeing only the bad and not the good.

[@cathybrookeburt2616]

I love how they cut in clips of Michael. And you two probably relate to this version because you recognize more artists maybe. I'm old, so I knew 2/3 of this one, but everyone in the Africa version. Both are amazing & Quincy Jones told them all to leave their egos at the door, for both versions. The 'star' of this show was the benefit itself.

I love both of them in their own ways. Im a bigger fan of the original group of artists, and I have a soft spot for East Africa (first one being for the famine in Ethiopia). Plus it’s the original. With this one I liked the expanded instrumentation… I love LOVE that they included the original film of Michael Jackson and then juxtaposed it with Janet. That actually made me cry the first time I saw this. I really enjoyed the rap pieces - I like rap anyway, it made the song longer so it wasn’t over so quickly 😆 and the lyrics specifically written for the earthquake in Haiti…. I liked the footage…. Featuring Wyclef Jean was beautiful!

[@AD-pd3ov]

I'm going to be completely honest, not negative, honest. I have to question the motives of quite a bit of the artists in this version. I know for a fact that a few artists snubbed it back in 85 due to the fact they couldn't check their egos at the door. They were trying to make it about them and not about the starving people dying in Africa. I see quite a few in there that were very big when it originally came out yet they didn't participate. Which leaves me to believe that they saw how monumental USA for Africa became staying top of the billboard charts for periods that were unprecedented. Every artist in the original were top of the charts artists at the time they did the song and they were good to just be in the background and the solos were small. LEGENDS! Paul Simon from Simon and Garfunkel, Diana Ross, Kenny Rogers, Tina Turner, Billy Joel, James Ingram, Bruce Springsteen, Dionne Warrick, Willie Nelson, Kenny Loggins (Footloose, Danger Zone, etc) Steve Perry (lead singer from Journey. It's un-American to not know Journey), Daryl Hall from Hall and Oats, Huey Lewis (he was definitely at his peak that year after doing the song Power of Love and Back in Time from the Back to the Future soundtrack), Bob Dylan, Waylon Jennings, Cyndi Lauper (Girls Just Want to Have Fun, also topping the charts), Ray Charles, Stevie Wonder, Lionel Richie, Michael Jackson (goes without saying) and Jermaine Jackson was there, The Pointer Sisters, Smoky Robinson, Lindsey Buckingham (from Fleetwood Mac), Sheila E, Bette Midler, etc.. they raised millions for the starvation problem in Africa. What was happening there wasn't due to a natural disaster it was just poverty and death. Had they made a video back then and showed children on the verge of death due to starvation and living in unimaginable conditions it would've ripped your soul apart to see while listening to these amazing artists sing that song. It can't be duplicated. Period! I can appreciate what they were doing for the people of Haiti but I also have a serious mistrust of these organizations today. They've never received any of what they should've had all monies gone straight to them but it didn't. Greed is horrible today. It doesn't feel genuine to me. I feel some of them are probably very serious about wanting to help the people of Haiti and I feel very strongly that there's quite a few with an agenda that had absolutely nothing to do with charity. They saw what the original became and kicked themselves for not participating. Prince was the worst! His ego was out of control.

I just love the 2nd one so much! I just feel like the voices were better (which feels blasphemous just saying that) & the rap (all rappers I grew up on btw) added so much for me.

I don't think you can compare them. The original was perfect for that time and stood the test of time. To remake it in 2010 for Haiti, it makes sense to add something a little bit different or extra into it, to distinct it from the original. I think Michael would have approved and loved the 2010 version.
