watched this last night on Netflix and it is excellent and warmed my heart. So good to see these big stars all together and cooperating for a great cause.
I just watched the Netflix shows It’s was extraordinary that all these individually successful artists pulled this off!!! They did an amazing job . That helped so so many ppl ❤❤
@@dasaviorofgotham Go watch the Chris Rock interview with Prince about Michael Jackson and then form an opinion which is what a comment is about instead a sanitize version put out by a public relations firm.
@@dasaviorofgothamhe was no team player. He wanted to change the song for himself to steal the show. NONE of the legends did that. MJ was a recluse, yet he did stay the whole night with a bunch of people and helped where he could. Prince was just thinking of hinself. You can't whitewash it.
Imagine if this scene is in a Michael Jackson biopic film with Jaafar Jackson, MJ’s real-life Nephrew, as the late King of Pop. Thank you, Universal Pictures 🌍
I remember we learned this in elementary school back in the mid 2000's. Still one of my favorite songs with so many artists I recognized then, and I recognize and listen to more of them now, because of this.
for reasons I will never understand, we had to learn it in Sunday School, practiced it over & over, but I don't think we ever performed it, for, say, a fundraiser, or anything
I've always wondered who had that enormous power to wield to have all of these big artists to come together and record this iconic song. Now, it make sense. They all attended the awards night that day.
I’m so glad to know that night was just as clean, just as united, just as unegotistical and fun as it was made out to be so many years ago. This song still gives me the shivers, and I still enjoy picking out the different artists, the ones I can recognize anyway. :-) No, we will never have a song like this again! I wonder, could a song similar to this even be drawn together today, considering we don’t seem to have the charismatic, focal point leaders that we had back in the 80s. But those of us who were alive back, then will always remember.
The Micheal Jackson Demo Version of this Legendary Song will be the greatest tribute if it was ever released \,,/ ❤❤❤ they must release it by 2025 on the 40th anniversary…
Since Bruce Springsteen, Madonna…Way before Nirvana There was U2 and Blondie, And music still on MTV Her two kids in high school,They tell her that she's uncool 'Cause she's still preoccupied With 19, 19…1985
Actually "the greatest night in pop music history was and still is, "..Feb 9, 1964. If you don't know what it was Google it. Whereas This choice by Netflix is just so America-centric. I'm not surprised though.
His ego, plus the main group that put it all together. He didn't want to go then said he would but didn't want to be in that huge crowd. He said he'd go down but wanted to do his own thing in another room. They wouldn't do that. Then cleared the room for Dylan. I didn't get that. But, Prince didn't really want to sing on it either. He wanted to lay down a guitar solo. They didn't want that. Yet, they had Stevie do a piano part.
I think if Prince say yes by the time they invited him i think his request will be granted. it seems like he is not interested bc mike is there.. @@realTRAVE75
@@ManChan-w5p wrong! he didn't care if Micheal was there it was just that he was uncomfortable with that many people in a same room! he was always a non social person even sheila e said it herself in the film. he offered to do a guitar solo but they said no so he kindly said he'll write a song instead and gave it to them called 4 the Tears in your Eyes
@@jessenia.rosalesss Oh I forgot you were there. You have first hand account. I'm glad I'm wrong. I can't be accused of stalking. You going to believe what you read. Prince wanted nothing to do their boy lover.
@@jessenia.rosalesss Good luck with you. You tend to believe what you read and hear instead of forming an opinion which is what defines a comment. Also watch Prince and Chris Rock do an interview about Michael Jackson and then think about what you believe. You must like that good old fashion lover boy.
Come on netflix. credit where credit is due. You act like Bob Geldorf, Michael, Harry or Lionel thought all this up? No mention of George Harrison and Ravi Shankar who did it all 15 years before for Bangladesh (1971). The first time ever! Just another amazing first from George Harrison, and you go quiet about the quiet Beatle???? Unfair. Why do you ignore him????? Other than that glaring omission, the doc was very well done.

Prince didn't participate because he knew Michael Jackson was involved.
Prince wasn’t there
@@jonathancamejo4588 I know, he was supposed to be in the video
only Sheila E was there
@@jonathancamejo4588 He deserves a mention nontheless
We probably won’t get something this iconic again 🥲
Well you aint getting another Michael Jackson anytime soon so you're right
There wouldn't be enough talent to fill the room now.
There was a 2nd one made.
@@joygeegemini9241 Not nearly as good.
RIP Michael Jackson 🙏🏾Thank you for everything you did for the world. We will never forget you. ❤
The House will be there, But the People in the house will not be there, hits hard.
That song never gets old😮
Michael Jackson, Lionel Richie, Harry Belafonte, and Quincy Jones, thank you for this masterpiece of a song, and the legacy that lives on with it.
I think the fact that so much indescribable legends and talent accumulated in one room makes it more memorable
watched this last night on Netflix and it is excellent and warmed my heart. So good to see these big stars all together and cooperating for a great cause.
I just watched the Netflix shows
It’s was extraordinary that all these individually successful artists pulled this off!!!
They did an amazing job . That helped so so many ppl
❤❤
I'm a big fan of that song. I'm looking forward to watching it on Netflix.
What’s on Netflix?
I watched it last night and it was good
The doc is Netflix and is called the greatness night in pop
Song still Gives me goosebumps every time 😱
MJ 😢 ❤
I like how Quincy Jones and Michael Jackson giving Cyndi Lauper the evil eye. Prince said hell no because MJ was there.
Prince never could check his ego at the door
No he didn’t thats wrong. He wanted to play a solo on his guitar and they refused

I’ll never get over the MJ side eye 😂
Loved it. “Check your egos at the door”
This song needs to be a national anthem in every country in the world!
I remember this song . I was 9 when they did this lol. But we were more united then.
So many legends!!

MJ FOREVER ❤❤❤
In high school we all used to sing this in the smoking lounge with our lighters lit. Great memories.
I just remember the clip where MJ gave enormous side eye to other singers 😂
Cyndi Lauper.
It started with Band Aid’s “Do they know it’s Christmas?”
I remember this song as a kid play more of it.
I watched last night. Its good
Massive hit. EPIC ❤
I've always wondered who had that enormous power to wield to have all of these big artists to come together and record this iconic song. Now, it make sense. They all attended the awards night that day.
Such an amazing documentary. I’d definitely buy it on DVD if I could
Stellar performance...I see why they won 3 Grammys, its hard to pull that off.😮
So amazing song and documentary. Watched this right now. Had tears at the end. Thank you.

Band Aid did it first. That was the greatest night in pop.
Correct. This was the American version. The English was first. Amazing no one was involved in both.
So what if they did it first?
Why this song and the full album is not available in cd format,remastered and expanded?Unbelievable!!
This is awesome
I 💕 d it so much that next year for it's 40th Anniversary, we should do another one.
Pure magic
40th that long time
BandAid❤
Aww 😌
Still a great meme as well 👍🏾
I can’t watch it on Netflix it’s not loading properly
The Micheal Jackson Demo Version of this Legendary Song will be the greatest tribute if it was ever released \,,/ ❤❤❤ they must release it by 2025 on the 40th anniversary…
the Best year 1985
Since Bruce Springsteen, Madonna…Way before Nirvana
There was U2 and Blondie, And music still on MTV
Her two kids in high school,They tell her that she's uncool
'Cause she's still preoccupied
With 19, 19…1985
My last baby was born same time this video came out & it's very dear to my heart ❤️
Im crying at the last part… :((
I just wish sheila E got major props. She is so amazing and talented. I loved her in my teen years
Band Aid's "Let them know it's Christmas" was far superior to this.
This song was incredibly effective...
I aspire to be this delusional lol
Band aid is far superior. This song should be titled forget the people dying of starvation it’s all about us
I watched it on the day it came out and i loved it 10/10 deffinately recomend❤👍💯
JUNE!!!!!!!!! (Pointer)💕💕🎼🎶💕🎶
All of the greatest stars of the time… and LaToya Jackson
Great cause indeed, but how sad that this could be considered the "greatest." Just proof positive that the best years of pop ended many years before.
This was a very good Documentary ~ Wilmrbadguy
We should remake it with artists popular today. That would be awesome
No. This was done for a reason.
It already happened in 2010, the effort for the people of Haiti after the earthquake
The day my dog died
I'm so sorry
smokey looks fifty years younger.....and it looks good 😆
This better than Taylor swift 😂
I heard about that song many times
The nights of nights.
Who else saw the documentary in Netflix?
I didn’t know there was one, but thanks for that heads up.
Yes, and it was lame too.
They all know what they were doing thats why
There was a remake of this song specifically for the Haiti earthquake donation drive
"Motown legend Smokey Wobinson was there." 🤣🤣
👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Most of the stars that have participated have passed away
Stevie Wonder is a musical genius
The greatest night was when ABBA won Eurovision almost 50 years ago
Who? No one watches Eurovision but Europeans
More people watch Eurovision than watch the Super Bowl. So do you say forget the Super Bowl only Americans watch that
2nd greatest night in pop after the original
Would be too difficult for this generation to check their egos at the door
Bruuuuceeeee!!!!!
👏 ❤

why didn't Betty Miller sing. why. not even showing she was with te group. ? Now. 2024 HOW IS AFRICA TODAY ?
Why do news shows like this always yell at the audience - Its so annoying
Why did Deborah Norville do news shows like this always broke the fourth wall at the audience? - 0:00

Where all the money where to?...

It was a terrible song.
Just like Cyndi Lauper said. It was really composed by Lionel Richie. Michael Jackson lent his vocals. The signature was Lionel. People can hear it.
Hater
@@ManChan-w5pcyndi wqs there when they wrote it. Lionel himself says he came up with a few notes.and MJ picked it up and finished it. But sure, if xyndi says it, it must be true muhahaha
It served a purpose.and servwd it REALLY well. Who care if YOU like it or not? Go on raise 160 million with one song for famine.
We'll wait and see.
