Band Aid – Do They Know It’s Christmas Video | Original Video From 1985, Bob Geldof Etc.

This song and video are over 20 years old now, but the sentiment, and meaning still remain the same, with people around the world still needing help from richer countries.

Pop stars Bob Geldof and Midge Ure were the original driving forces behind the song, and money raising initiative, although a lot of big name celebrities came on board.

The video is quite funny (in a bit of a sick way) today, purely because of the fashions, and styles on display.

The important thing is that the song did a lot of good at the time, raising money for Ethopia, and other countries facing famine.
