We Are The World 25 For Haiti - Official Video
Shared by wearetheworld on YouTube:
"Recorded on February 1st, 2010, in the same studio as the original 25 years earlier (Henson Recording Studios, formerly A&M Recording Studios) "We Are The World 25 For Haiti", in which Jones and Richie serve as executive producers and producers, was created in collaboration with executive producers Wyclef Jean, Randy Phillips and Peter Tortorici; producers Humberto Gattica and RedOne; and co-producers Rickey Minor, Mervyn Warren and Patti Austin to benefit the Haitian earthquake relief efforts and the rebuilding of Haiti.
Academy Award-winning writer-director Paul Haggis (Crash, Million Dollar Baby), whose own personal efforts as well as those of Artists for Peace and Justice have already saved countless lives in Haiti, filmed the private recording session to create the accompanying video and behind-the-scenes production, and serves as Film Director and as an Executive Producer with Jones, Richie, Jean, Phillips and Tortorici.
The 25th Anniversary recording features over 80 artists and performers. The recording of We Are The World 25 For Haiti embodied the same enthusiasm, sense of purpose and generosity as the original recording 25 years ago. Every one of the artists who participated, regardless of genre or generation, walked into the room with their hearts and souls completely open to coming together to help the people of Haiti."

I just returned from working in Haiti helping to open a new orphanage. everywhere I went, the Haitians were listening to this song. Even the young children were trying their best to sing along. This song alone has given the Haitian people hope. Every time I heard this song blasting from boom boxes on the street or from the local radio statians, I too felt hope. Bless you all! Please, remember Haiti. Do not let the media lose this tragedy in the middle of the next crisis!!

Awesome remake. I wish there wasn't a NEED for this remake, but the fact that so many got together to redo do it to help Haiti is pretty great. It's great to see some good going on in the world instead of misguided hate-mongers that the general media love to show so much.

It's amazing what we can do when we put our heart and soul behind it!!!!
"Why should there be hunger and deprivation in any land, in any city, at any table, when man has the resources and the scientific know-how to provide all mankind with the basic necessities of life?"
