This is a time when people knew what style was. A time when you could have a ciggie with your starry mates and save Africa at the same time . . . a time when a man could roll the sleeves up on his blazer without fear of reprisal . . . these were great days -

So if SF members were covering this, who or what would you be?

(I'd be Simon Le Bon Bons jacket)

I would be Bono singing "well tonight thank god it's them, instead of you!" But not as annoying or pope loving!!!

Wasn't she in the second Band Aid late 80's.. surely she was in her 20's by then?

First band aid record is incredibly sexist - only Jody Whatley and Bananarama turned up so I'd have to be Siobhan Fahey.
I love the Christmas Day version of this from TOTP that year - it was a classic. They'd attempted to recreate the day and get all the pop stars in - however inevitably they all couldn't make it and Paul Weller got left with miming Bono's quite enigmatic "Well tonight thank god it's them instead of you" which he actually did with the gusto of an enthusiastic eight year old. :rolleyes::hihi:

Pedant alert: Feed the world is actually that even worse Michael Jackson song. :rolleyes: In that case I'd be the pop star at home staying well away.

EDIT:ACTUALLY IT'S NOT. I LIED! lol see below!

We Are the World. Unless you're talking about another Michael Jackson song, about which I know nothing, in which case feel free to point and mock :hihi: .

ETA: On that, I'd be Cyndi Lauper.

It's an EVEN worse mikey j song.
on we are the world I'd be the mighty Dionne Warwick.

Is it bad I don't know who half the people are on that video. Who's the dude at 4:14? He looks like the security guard who decided to pop in on the back row?

EDIT: Have I dreamt this song up?
It went something like this

Feed the world, Make it a better place for you and for me and the entire human race
There are people dying and ..........(tra la la la la) living
Make a better place for yoooooou and for meeeeeeeeee.

Ignore me. I've made it up

LOL! It was Heal the world. That's the second blatant lie I've told tonight.

Points at and mocks EdnaK :P .

I've managed to block out most Michael Jackson stuff post-Billie Jean, so I hadn't a clue.

Something Fishy about that post!:suspect:

I think you mean Marilyn as opposed to Marillion.
