WE ARE THE WORLD • Episode 134 • Misty and Ike (its a podcast) - a podcast by Isaac Heckert and Misty Roberts

We are the world!

Back in 1985, Africa was experiencing a massive famine.  So, 45 of the biggest musical stars in the world got together to record a song for charity.  It sold in excess of 20 million copies making it the 8th best selling physical single of all time.

But- did you know that there were a lot of other things very similar?  Like Band Aid, Farm Aid, Artists United Against Apartheid, That's What Friends Are For, Hear N Aid, West Coast Rap All Stars, Voices That Care and Haiti 25.

Hmmmm...sounds like maybe its time for another get together.  Someone call Stevie Wonder and Lionel Richie...
