There's a 1 hour special documentary about the making of the song. I only just watched it a couple days ago, and it's really interesting. These artists spent the entire night recording, as you said, right after the Grammys, till about 10 or 11 am. There was another one done for the earthquake in Haiti in 2010 (We Are the World 25 for Haiti). But in my opinion nowhere near as good as this.

Unfortunetly more than half of the artists are gone now. Micheal Jackson thought up the idea and contacted Lionel Richie who wrote the song with him. Quincy Jones produced it. Artists were gathered for an awards show and agreed to join in. They started around midnight and finished around 5am. Prince was asked but refused due to his feeling like MJ's underling. No one was paid. It ran on radio stations regulary for years. MTV and VH1 also kept it in rotation. Sales of the record raised hundreds of millions wourldwide.

Comment Number 150. Complete credits are in Wikipedia. All-stars 🌟 Madonna was not invited. The powers that be thought she was not good enough. This information was in an interview with Nile Rodgers. He did not perform either. But they performed at Live Aid. Sammy Hagar wanted to sing but was not invited. His Bay Area friends Lindsey Buckingham, Huey Lewis and Steve Perry sang. David Foster conducted a supergroup in Canada 🇨🇦. Bruce Allen took care of the business side. This group was named Northern Lights. Bryan Adams, Corey Hart, Geddy Lee of Rush, the late Gordon Lightfoot, RIP, Joni Mitchell, Anne Murray,Mike Reno of Loverboy and Neil Young are some of the singers.

Didn't it happen twice? USA for Haiti organized by Wyclef Jean... Same song, different artistes. It may not be as iconic, but it showed how music had changed in the thirty years between.

Michael Jackson was there. Some of this was recorded the next day. Bruce Springsteen and Stevie Wonder's duet were recorded separately. Bruce recorded his they night most of this was recorded but Stevie came in the next day to do his part. This was written by Michael Jackson and Lionel Ritchie. When Ray Charles asked where the bathroom was, Stevie Wonder said, "I'll show you Ray." And the cast and crew watched a real life case of the blind leading the blind.

I saw the Netflix special on the BTS for We Are the World. I highly recommend it. I don't know how they managed to make this song. They had sixty artists for the chorus. It was like herding cats. Quincy put up a sign up, "Check your Ego at the door", so no assistants or entourages allowed in the studio, only artists. It kinda disarmed them. They had to talk to each other and some looked uncomfortable but it helped focus them. Stevie Wonder almost broke the thing by trying to sing in Swahili. Lots of people were rolling their eyes and things were getting tense. Bob Geldof had to intervene and explain to Stevie that in Ethiopia they don't speak Swahili, and this was just the chorus, they still had to record the solos. It was an amazing achievement, kudos to Quincy, Lionel, and Michael Jackson for getting it done.

Thank you so much for this reaction video. Almost all the others are people screaming out the names of the artists that they think are performing like it’s a quiz show. When you do name them you don’t talk over their singing, that’s refreshing. You just react to the music and performance. Appreciate that. Very cool watching this with you!

We were doing better back then when it came to coming together more. There were problems, for sure. No doubt about it. But we were making much more progress than previous generations. Big strides were happening. Progress was increasing. Then something arrived and began to trash that progress that was made. Millennials and zoomers. They stoked fire and told groups that other groups hated them. Resentment grew where it was lessening. It’s now going to take generations just to get back to where we were during the time of this song. It’s heartbreaking to witness when you lived during the time of great improvement.

@jrasicmark1 6 месяцев назад

Actually, this has happened since then; after the earthquake in Haiti, a new group of superstars united to record the song to aide Haiti's recovery. Artists included Barbra Streisand, Celine Dion, Tony Bennett, Miley Cyrus and Justin Beiber. It also included an all star list of legendary rappers, who rapped a new addition to the song. It wasn't as good, but it was still amazing to see all the stars in it. Broadway performers also united to sing their own version to promote unity (it might have been after the Pulse nightclub shootings). There have also been a few different songs recorded by all star artists for different charities since then (there was one with famous Latino singers), but they weren't quite as huge or as successful. On the same album as the original We Are the World was a group of Canadian superstars calling themselves the Northern Lights singing a similar themed song called Tears Are Not Enough.

There is a documentary on Netflix about this. It identifies who paired them. Initially, they asked why they were paired but then Stevie played the piano with everyone going through it as paired and after a few, as Stevie heard it he commented on how good it was. Others also realized it. It was done in one night except for Stevie and Ray were asked to come back in a few days later to do a fill in where the producers/directors thought it was needed.

There has been a few other solidarity songs, but like this.... never was, and never will be again. The level of talent, artistry, selflessness, ego-ness, and mission spirit in that room on that day was something the world will probably never see again. That night, and that place was "ground zero" of the 80's U.S. music industry.
