S4E8 | Music: We Are the World

In response to a once-in-a-century drought and famine in Ethiopia, Harry Belefonte, Michael Jackson, Lionel Richie, Stevie Wonder, and Quincy Jones assembled the ultimate cast of legendary musicians to come together one top-secret evening to record the best-selling single in America and pop music history, “We Are the World.” Their passion, talent, and efforts not only brought short and long-term aid to struggling communities throughout Africa, but set an incredible precedent both for musicians from astoundingly different backgrounds to create art together and for music to strive to create real-world change on a global scale. So sing along with us as we revisit this incredible moment in pop culture and close the yearbook on our Senior Year of 80’s High. Season 4 of 80's High is sponsored by Choose Your Own Adventure!
