@AB-ol5uz Год назад

those elements still exist throughout the country, they just don't generate clickbait/ad revenue for media conglomerates. It's past time for people to realize that reacting emotionally to everything that someone puts out just creates more negative noise for the profit of others. The whole - it bleeds, it leads, is on a whole nother level today because they don't WAIT to confirm facts before they report their own bias/speculation on various events. and by the time the actual facts are known it's not only at tremendous cost to those that were mischaracterized, it's often at a cost to local communities.

@MatthewC137 3 года назад

@@timlenard1646 I don't mean any disrespect but most of these "reactors" are the opposite of musical experts which is part of the reason we watch. The fun is in watching regular people from different backgrounds/cultures hear good music for the first time. These days especially, there are good reasons for many great artists of the past to go undiscovered. Before the internet matured, the universe of great talent seemed more finite, and, for practical purposes, it was. So, people over about 40 easily heard current music as well as music from two or three generations in the past because far fewer artists were well known or easily accessible.

Sadly it can't happened in contemporary times due to the fact that Auto-Tune came onto the scene. Not a lot of truly gifted singers with natural voices around to put out a performance like this.

In the behind the scenes video which can be found here on RU-vid, you can really see how much work went into this.

Well... actually, until now we do have a video like this (not with such great artists, but nowadays singers don't sing). This song was from 1985 and there has been many replicas supporting other countries over the years. I don't remember when was the last one, but in spanish, the one made for Haití, Daddy Yankee is on it, so is not that old or at least I guess isn't😅

'85" still have this 45 record single.Brought it to my 6th grade xmas party everyone loved it.This song will never get old for me. I feel hope each and every time I play it. Brilliant.I believe it was produced for the famine relief in Africa.There's another 'super group" can't remember there name but the song was Feed the world,Do they know its Christian time. 80s artists also gives you that good feeling inside.✌

Feed the World was put our by the British singers at this same time and Canada sang Tears Are Not Enough, also for the 1985 relief in Ethiopia.

@@brookehornback1896 the name of the group was Band Aid. It was put together by Bob Geldof, (from Boomtown Rats) and Midge Ure, (from Ultravox) and they wrote the song "Do they know it's Christmas time at all" and the profits were given to aid famine in Ethiopia & Africa. Later, Geldof & Ure helped form the "one day concert" seen around the world known as "Live Aid"! on MTV, Which featured most of the current singers & bands popular at the time.

There was also a radio simulcast on Good Friday morning. Literally thousands of radio stations in 25 countries played it at the exact same time. They raised $63million (around $150million in today’s dollars) for famine relief in Africa. There was a reprise a few years ago for Haiti relief. Don’t remember everyone but I know Jamie Fox and Pink were in it. 🤷🏼‍♀️

@Marcus_1001 2 года назад

4:02 “I bow down to you sirs and madams.” As you should. This is probably the greatest musical collaboration that has ever happened and we will never see its like again. Every single singer involved in this project is/was an absolute legend in their own right. After nearly 4 decades this song still brings me to tears. It was such a labor of love, but more than that it was SUCH an important project. In the mid-1980s a terrible and devastating famine was ravaging Ethiopia and people were dying by the thousands. By the time it finally ended over a million people had died. Those images, especially the ones of the sick and emaciated children, have never left me. It was absolutely heartbreaking. This project raised over $60 million for famine relief and this song is still earning money. Again, I doubt we will ever see a collaboration of this magnitude again. Artists today are simply too superficial and self-absorbed.

@reshaud81 3 года назад
