We are the World


It is always a warming and tingling experience to hear the most celebrated artists of our time team up together for a humanitarian cause. It is a sad thing that it only happens only in the time of calamities. It uplifts human spirit and motivates each people to be human again. To be compassionate and generous. To have the heart dominantly function instead of the mind. The first We are the World is one of the songs that I will never forget since childhood. It made me aware at a young age about being humanitarian, and knowing what is happening in places away from home. The Artists that participated here are as follows:

Yesterday, I was just getting some water to drink when I saw on in the television the new version of the We are the world, this time, it was dedicated for Haiti (I almost do not have the time to watch TV). It again gave me the same feeling, makes me remember the memories and realize that calamities are still happening, same situation twenty five years ago.. But his time I know I can do something. I can help in my own little-best way. I hope I can share the same feelings and sentiments and motivation with you all. Here are the artists that participate in We Are The World 25 for Haiti.
