Jaan kanssanne tänä jouluna sen hetken, jolloin olen ollut todella ylpeä ikätovereistani.
Midge Ure synt. 1953, Bob Geldof, synt. 1951, Bono synt. 1960
Video vuodelta 1985, jolloin voimaimme tunnossa olimme joukolla parantamassa maailmaa. Ikuisesti mieleeni ja sydämeeni on piirtynyt se auttamisen henki minkä tämä laulu laukaisi kun se ilmestyi vuonna 1984. Tässä, jos missä, kiteytyy joulun sanoma.
You ain't gotta feel guilt just selfless
Give a little help to the helpless
Hyvää ja onnellista joulunaikaa kaikille!
"Band Aid were a British and Irish charity supergroup, founded in 1984 by Bob Geldof and Midge Ure in order to raise money for famine relief in Ethiopia by releasing the record "Do They Know It's Christmas?" for the Christmas market.
The record was released on 29 November, and went straight to No. 1 in the UK singles chart, outselling all the other records in the chart put together. It became the fastest- selling single of all time in the UK, selling a million copies in the first week alone. It stayed at No. 1 for five weeks, selling over three million copies and becoming easily the biggest-selling single of all time in the UK." Wikipedia
