20 Most Awesomely Bad Moments in the "We Are the World" video

4:07 - The newly re-worked Blues Brothers featuring Al Jarreau shows up to support the cause.

how staggeringly small-minded and ungenerous. a huge number of tremendously successful artists, all at the top of their game, shelved their egos and disrupted their packed schedules to do something that had never been done before in the USA. to do something that did not earn them a penny. to do something that raised awareness of Africa's tragedy, as well as many, many millions of dollars to combat it. and they do it with obvious passion and, mostly, humility. Michael Jackson, who i understand wrote most of the song, calls no attention to himself at all. Nor does Harry Belafonte, one of the key organizers.
and you look at this rare collaboration -- which still puts a lump in my throat -- and make fun of the hairstyles and fashions of 20 years ago and the facial expressions of these singers who are giving it their all? Tell me how much money you have raised for Africa. Tell me of some other of your selfless actions. Shame on you.

I cannot believe this list did not include Dan Ackryoyd. How can you have a list about We are the World and not mention Dan Ackroyd?

18 It's Lindsey Buckingham from Fleetwood Mac.

Wow, I forgot how lame and self-important that era truly was.

Hey 33rdlayla-get a sense of humor, a life, and a new name from a different Clapton song.

I agree with other comments, this is tasteless stuff. Most offensive point is making fun of Stevie Wonder's head movements. Forget Lionel Ritchie, Stevie Wonder has been cool for about 45 years. You obviously never have attended one of his concerts and felt the genuine love that pervades the entire room/arena. Get a life, author! (How much did you "earn" with this pathetic article?)

youch, well I guess that hit a nerve with a couple of people.

Also, the funniest thing about the whole song is Dan Aykroyd simply being there.

I hate to say I remember this, but I think the "chick with the Janis Joplin glasses" isn't Steven Tyler from Aerosmith, but Sheila E, Prince's protege....
