The British did a much better song also....We Are the World was 1st class drivel.

Can you name the one American act that was represented at "Do They Know It's Christmas"?

Yes, "Do They Know its Christmas" was a much better song. At least it wasn't a monstously horrific treacly mess like We Are the World.

Musically, the best multistar benefit song of the era was the kick-ass "Sun City" one put together by Steve Van Zandt.
