We Are The World - Your Thoughts

**Scott Greczkowski** · 02-12-2010 07:56 PM

Well the just aired the new version of We Are The World. What did you think?

I do like how they added Michael Jackson in, but other then that I really didnt like it.

I didn't get the shouting in another language or the end of the song.

I didn't know who a lot of those artists were who appeared, but in thinking back when the original "We are the World" came out I think I said the same thing and look at the talent and superstars that came out of that group.

Whats your thoughts?

The original was 100% better. I really did not like what they did with it.

Agree, the original was an event. This, not so much. Wish they would have just done a different song.

I remember the original very well, but haven't seen the entire new version yet. I did see part of a "making of" clip somewhere, but except for the older performers I hadn't a clue who most of the others where. When did I get old?

Really ?
When the original "We are the world" came out you didn't know who Bruce Springsteen was ? Cindy Lauper ? Diana Ross ? Stevie Wonder ? Lioneel Richie ? At the time pretty much all the performers were recognizeable to most people.

Some of them yes, but others no and they didnt really become popular until after the release of that song.

I hated the MJ part and the whole thing is just old and tired.

I thought they were all recognizable unless you lived in a barn.
