I'm quite surprised to see that no one has reviewed this PHENOMENAL song!
Michael Jackson truly believed in helping to make a difference and you can really feel the beauty and conviction of this song. Michael Jackson may be one of the most misunderstood superstars, but his truth and compassion are so evident here. Rest in peace, sweet prince...

I totally agree! MJ was so misunderstood. Most of Michael's songs were about peace, love, and unity and he truly had a heart for helping others. He helped organize this project and he co-wrote the lyrics. God bless you Michael and all of the others who selflessly participated.

"We are the World" is the anthemic '80s charity song that remains long in the memory. "We are the world,we are its children" is a quintessential feel-good song. Penned by the late Michael Jackson as a benefit for Africa, it was for a good cause--and yes,it's also great music. It's nice to see "We are the world" making a comeback.

Great song
A really great song. The only issue I had with this mp3 was that the volume level was really low. Had to turn up a good ways to hear it well.

The Freaks are out
The song is a classic 80's tune that goes with Do They Know It's Christmas Time? by Band Aid.
