Headline : Elbow and Ed Sheeran among Band Aid 30 artists.

 

Excerpt from the Link "Sheeran and Elbow are among the acts who will take part in a fourth version of the Band Aid charity single, Do They Know It's Christmas.

Announcing the project, Bob Geldof and Midge Ure said the song's lyrics would be changed to reflect the Ebola crisis."

 

My thoughts :

 

A good cause to which I'll be contributing 😄

 

Anyone remember the Original Band Aid in 1984 and the phenomenon surrounding it ? Source : Wiki -> Band Aid (band)

Bob Geldof made no mention of that last night...but he  was adamant that 'We would beat Ebola'...so I suppose it depends on how much money they raise from the single...?

Anything raised will help but it's how they use the money that gives me cause for concern .

I said exactly the same to my husband yesterday. there was a lot of controversy about this issue. Problem is the people who need it most are stuck in a country with a corrupt government... Smiley Mad
