Gotta admit that the Euros outdid us with this song. I still love this song.

Gotta disagree with you on this one SJ! I don't think it's a BAD song, just not better IMHO! BTW, how'd they get that many homo's (not that there's anything wrong with that!) together in one spot? That's what amazes me! LOL!!!

What? That is an awesome song. Bob & Midge did an incredible job w/it. Let's not forget it was THEIR idea. MJ copied them.

No way is "We are the World" a better song. "Feed the World" was a lot more to the point lyrically, and it's a way better melody.
I'd have loved to have heard Perry on THAT song. We are the world makes me cringe every time I hear it, especially Willy Nelson, Dylan, and Springsteen's parts. Willy should have done another take because he could've sang it better. Bob and Bruce... well, you're only going to get so much vocally out of them aren't you?
Somebody probably mentioned this, but there's a great clip of Jeremy doing We are the World. Funny stuff.

Susie - Nick Rhodes ain't gay?

Susie - Nick Rhodes ain't gay?

LOL!!! Sorry if you took offense, and you're right...there probably weren't TOO many homo's in there, but they sure LOOKED like it! You know what they say in the Army..."Don't ask-don't tell"!!!

I still like "We are the world" better! We all have different ears and musical tastes, but it just sounds better to me. I've always been a huge fan of about half the people in that song, and I think it's amazing the way it was laid out to give the song continuity, while retaining each individual performance. Very cool!

Nick Rhoades is married to some mega model isn't he?

Susie - Nick Rhodes ain't gay?

I'm getting off subject here but Rhodes looks like the sixth member of DefLep from the cd booklet of Euphoria...don't think any of those guys are gay but they all -except maybe Viv-looked it in those pics.

[ArnelRox]

Susie - Nick Rhodes ain't gay?

Nope he just likes to wear makeup. I actually knew someone who slept w/him. A female, before u say it. She said he was great in bed but he stole a lot of her makeup!

[ArnelRox]

I don't think he's ever been married but I could be wrong. Last I heard he was doing an actress, Meredith Ostrom, who was in Love Actually & Alfie.

Are u talking about Phil Collen?

That's debatable.

[Socratic Methodist]

We Are the World? Forget that DRIVEL.

Que up some We're Stars, now THAT'S some rockin' shit!

No one in particular, though I can see that a bit, just saying that they looked gay in those photos-at least Phil, Sav & Joe-and that Rhodes would have fit in those pics with them.

I'll be damned.

Absolutely.

It's a shame also that some chose to ridicule Geldolf as "Saint Bob"

[Red13JoePa]

Some portray Geldoff as the villain in Michael Hutchence's death.

Ha ha. If u knew what I did for a living, it would make sense. But I think we'll stay strangers for now.

That's a very long convoluted story. I'll just say Bob is a fantastic guy & leave u to ur own vivid imagination.

That's right, your "connections" again.

Why isn't David Bi-wie's name bolded?

Oh, that's right you were probly there.

You're the Forrest Gump of this music mssg board.


Never said I bought the Hutchence faction's story just said it exists.

Personally I think Augeri did it right before he jetted off to Hawaii and hipchecked perry off that mountain bike but that's a story for another thread.

[ArnelRox]

He was never all-out gay. He was bi for a while, but always did chicks as well as dudes.

Was that before or after he fathered the kittens?

Willy should have done another take because he could've sang it better.

That's debatable.

Willie's decent at 'what he does'. He's definitely not a conventional singer. I really don't dig his voice much at all, but I think he's a great guy, so I cut him slack.

I'd say he's a legend.

[Kimmy]

That was a really cool flash from the past..

Does any one know how much money they raised??

I just watched these clips with my 14 year old daughter (who's pretty sheltered). When Michael Jackson showed up, she said "Dad, is that a guy or a girl?". I said both.

Ha ha. But come on, he's definitely a guy. He just always wanted to look like Diana Ross.
