    If you watched this video after watching it from Netflix, give me a thumbs up. You are not alone! I love this song and I even watched the latest version with the new generation of artists.

      It’s great. And encouraging to see a room of superstars being insecure in each other’s presence; everyone has idols, everyone feels less-than next to someone. Just be you.

      Favorite part for sure was learning that Stevie Wonder showed Dylan what to sing by singing it impersonating Dylan’s own voice. In the nearly dropping the ball category, Al Jarreau sure jumped the gun tying one on. You can see his eyes looking misty and distant even in the choruses, which were done before the solos! You can see in the video that unlike most soloists, there’s a slight jump cut where they must have had to edit his solo parts from multiple takes, thus his head movement doesn’t match in the edit. (My guess is the poor guy was probably about to lose his shit in a room with all those soul giants. Can’t say I blame him, just imagine.)

    Also, Lionel Richie deserves a hugeeee standing ovation for his role here. Hosted the AMAs, won prizes, went to the studio, kept solving problems, made everyone feel at ease, made them laugh, kept guiding people, SANGGGG, and stayed until the very end (and of course he co wrote the song!!!!). That man did A LOTTTT and we do not appreciate that enough.

      Lionel looks like that classmate in high school who made sure the other classmate was able to copy the answer. He is such a nice person to everybody the way he looks out for them. Bruce (I love him a lot!), Lionel, Michael, Steve Perry (just because he is my all-time favorite), and Kenny Rogers (makes me cry watching the documentary) are in my top 5!

    Let me get this right.
    Lionel Richie wrote this song with Michael Jackson, hosted the American Music Awards that night, (where he won multiple awards), and then brought all of these amazing artists together to record this song? In the same night?
    Are you freaking kidding me??
    This answers the question as to who the hardest working man in showbusiness is.
    Much respect Lionel Richie! And to all of the other brilliant artists who helped create this magical song!

    I completely comprehend Diana Ross's sentiments when she sheds tears and expresses her desire for that night to never end. She, along with everyone present, was acutely aware that it marked a singular moment in their lives and in the broader scope of humanity. It is a legacy destined to endure for generations.

    Lyrics:
    [Lionel Richie]
    There comes a time when we heed a certain call
    [Lionel Richie & Stevie Wonder]
    When the world must come together as one
    [Stevie Wonder]
    There are people dying
    [Paul Simon]
    Oh, and it's time to lend a hand to life
    [Paul Simon & Kenny Rogers]
    The greatest gift of all
    [Kenny Rogers]
    We can't go on pretending day by day
    [James Ingram]
    That someone, somewhere will soon make a change
    [Tina Turner]
    We are all part of God's great big family
    [Billy Joel]
    And the truth, you know, (love is all we need)
    [Michael Jackson]
    We are the world, we are the children
    We are the ones who make a brighter day
    So let's start giving
    [Diana Ross]
    There's a choice we're making
    We're saving our own lives
    [Diana Ross & Michael Jackson]
    It's true, we'll make a better day
    Just you and me
    [Dionne Warwick]
    Woah, send them your heart
    So they'll know that someone cares
    And their (lives will be stronger and free)
    [Willie Nelson]
    As God has shown us by turning stones to bread
    [Al Jarreau]
    And so we all must lend a helping hand
    [Bruce Springsteen]
    We are the world, we are the children
    [Kenny Logins]
    We are the ones who make a brighter day
    So let's start giving
    [Steve Perry]
    Woah, there's a choice we're making
    We're saving our own lives
    [Daryl Hall]
    It's true, we'll make a better day
    Just you and me
    [Michael Jackson]
    When you're down and out, there seems no hope at all
    [Huey Lewis]
    But if you just believe, there's no way we can fall
    [Cyndi Lauper]
    Well, well, well, let us realize, oh, that a change can only come
    [Kim Carnes]
    When we... (stand together as one)
    [All]
    We are the world, we are the children
    We are the ones who make a brighter day
    So let's start giving
    There's a choice we're making

    Just watched the documentary on netflix about the making of this song ''The Greatest Night in Pop'' and was amazing seeing so many legends, each contributing in their own way to make this song so iconic. So much talent all at once. Incredible. Also the stories Lionel Richie tells about Michael Jackson when they were writing this at his house, including his impressions of Michael, are hilarious. 🤣 Michael and Steevie Wonders were borderline music savants, just amazing to watch. They guy who matched the voices and duos was also amazing!!

Grande Lionel Richie, y ni se diga de Michael Jackson, el más joven de todos ellos, en sus 20s y siendo ya una leyenda, pudo estar de rumba pero prefirió estar ahí y ponerle su alma y corazón en la creación y producción de esta obra musical para causa benéfica. Un genio en todo el sentido de la palabra 👏

      Agreed. For me, it's pairing Dionne Warwick with Willie Nelson. Not a tandem that would have occurred to me (or, per the documentary, Dionne!), but it works beautifully. The Huey/Cyndi/Kim trio is another example. Whatever one's opinion of the song (and mine has never been very high), the craftsmanship and ingenuity of the recording-and the many types of great singing-are hard to argue with.

    I was a secretary for the CFO of CBS Records when this project was happening. Being on the executive level floor, I witnessed a lot of the 'fluster' and intensity around the promotion of this. I was in tears watching the Netflix documentary "The Greatest Night in Pop". I witnessed, first hand, the frenzied excitement of it on a business/marketing level. To combine that with the emotion that went on in the studio - something I had just imagined happening all these years - to see it through this documentary - was just overwhelming!!! This was truly a once in a lifetime event. And since I'm practically at the end of my lifetime, I can say this with confidence!!

    I don’t remember much in todays’ fast paced days, but I’ll tell you what… I vividly remember in 1985 my 2nd grade teacher sitting us in a circle and singing along to this song. We would first stand and recite the Pledge of Allegiance to start the day, then she would sit us down and walk over to the record player and start playing this song. We all sang together in harmony. It was beautiful. God I cherish and miss those moments. We were living in some of the best times of our lives, and didn’t even know it.
    BTW…. 25 years later I married her niece 😀
