Just watched the Band Aid video

Gosh, that brings up memories for me. Anyone else get teary and wistful about the way back days when Band Aid first happened? I know we have a lot of young mamas on this board, heck young women who aren't mamas and I'm an oldie who remembers when Bananarama were cool, but I miss those days sometimes.

Like the new version well enough and GREAT on Sir Bob for turning popular focus to Sudan.

And remember Live Aid? When Freddy Mercury was alive? Sigh. I miss the 80's.

"sigh" Don't even need the music. I can even picture who's singing each verse.

It's Christmastime; there's no need to be afraid
At Christmastime, we let in light and we banish shade
And in our world of plenty we can spread a smile of joy
Throw your arms around the world at Christmastime
But say a prayer to pray for the other ones
At Christmastime

It's hard, but when you're having fun
There's a world outside your window
And it's a world of dread and fear
Where the only water flowing is the bitter sting of tears

And the Christmas bells that ring there
Are the clanging chimes of doom
Well tonight thank God it's them instead of you
And there won't be snow in Africa this Christmastime

The greatest gift they'll get this year is life
Oh, where nothing ever grows, no rain or rivers flow
Do they know it's Christmastime at all?

Here's to you, raise a glass for ev'ryone
Here's to them, underneath that burning sun
Do they know it's Christmastime at all?

Feed the world..........you know the rest
