40 years (!) on and he's still claiming it made a big difference.

It made him personally $60 million. Self righteous con-artist POS.

Probably also kept a few African dictators alive.

Starvation in the world has obviously ended, and it was all because of that song... Right?

Liberals love it when they are given credit for saving da world while raking in the big bucks. Phonies.

Wouldn’t it have been more appropriate to call the song “Do They Know It’s Kwanzaa?” I don’t see what Christmas has to do with it unless they are after whitey’s money.

About 40 years ago we were in Tanzania being taken from Arusha to the Ngorongoro Crater,an absolutely breathtaking national park. It was a long drive on a terrible dirt road. Every few miles we'd see a woman with metal containers full of rice selling that rice.

Our vehicle stopped at one of the women and the guides spoke to her in,I assume,Swahili (it certainly wasn't English). With the woman was a young kid...maybe 10...maybe even older.

This kid was skin and bones. He/she had red/orange hair,a giant belly and little stick legs. Unless I'm mistaken those are all signs of severe,chronic,malnutrition (I did some research).

I've seen African poverty. For a few moments I was sitting no more than 5 feet from it. It's ugly...very ugly!

I have no clue how much.or how little,that song helped. I can say that I really like it and I hope it did,in fact,help.

Do Muslims and Animists know it’s Christmas? Probably not. Did feeding them help fuel a population explosion that was later unleashed into Europe? Probably yes

He helped save millions of Africans, and now they are all moving to Europe.

Band Aid was a tiny - people patting themselves on the back - band aid on a 11,724,000 square mile wound.

Here’s a great Beavis & Butthead take on this song.
