    I can't tell you how into We Are The World I was when it came out. I taped the HBO special about the making of when it came out and then put Willy Wonka right afterwards. That was probably the most repeat watched tape in my house growing up.

      Also..as cheesy as it is now. Watch that and count the number of them that are still around and making music. You couldn't do a song like that now and have the same results this many years later. Same goes for British version (which as the base was a better song anyway).

            I remember it alright, who could forget it. Michael Jackson actually looked human back then.

              I never heard of the Canadian version before! That's wild. SOOOO 80s.

              Did anybody notice Paul Schaeffer in the 'big chorus' scenes... Hilarious.

              I actually didn't know that Neil Young was a Canuck.

                      I remember that.

                      I wrote a game show question about it, I drive by the place where it was recorded two or three times a week (the old A&M Studios on La Brea near Sunset, originally built by Charlie Chaplin and now owned by the Jim Henson people) and I particularly remember that after the song was recorded and people were leaving, somebody offered Bruce Springsteen a security escort to his car (he had parked on the street) and he said, "No, thanks, I'll be all right."

                      Weird thing is, I don't feel a day over 40.

                          Still get goosebumps from the first 2 videos whenever the next singer does his/her "thing".
                          And the other video deserve a place in the history of music too.

                                      That IS creepy lol.

                                      When I was in kindergarten, one of the big TV kids' show hosts in our city, at the end of his show, had us all pick up our milk and toast President Eisenhower.

                                      Now THAT'S old

                                                Everything was good up to the point that I had to see MJ.
                                                Boy he didn't change. Same ugly motherfucker.

                                                    MJ doesn't even look remotely like he looked there now. Wouldn't say he hasn't changed.

                                                        Yeah, I remember that. I'm a child of the 80s.

                                                          Two things about the video now that I watch it back:

                                                          #1 Always love that Dan Ackroyd was there and part of it.

                                                          #2 Lack of Madonna. Wonder what they deal was there because she was huge then.

                                                            I remember the day when almost every radio station played the song all at the same time across the country. I remember switching from station to station and hearing that song.
