Review – The Greatest Night in Pop

I was working a graveyard shift job in the spring of 1985, which meant I spent hour after endless hour with Top 40 radio for company. So when “We Are the World” went into high rotation, it didn’t take long for it to go from charming effort at doing good to grating ear worm that got played at least once an hour. That said, it’s legitimately a moment of moderate importance in the history of popular music. In that spirit, it’s interesting to learn more about the night dozens of celebrities ended up in the same room singing the same song at the same time. Mildly amusing
