i think the band aid song sucks. but i guess the cause is good

[seekz]

I think its alright lah, at least these UK people can make 1000% nicer music than the US ones nowadays.

BAND AID

I sure like the 1984 version,
hated the Stock,Aider,Waterman-KylieMougie version.

Yet to hear the 2004 version.

Watever, I'll buy the LIVE-AID DVD for $82 at Gramaphone.
How much is it selling at HMV? Borders? yet to chk out.

MERRY CHRISTMAS ALL!

...Tonight thank God it's them instead of you !

Jist heard the 2004 version on class 95 today. It's much slower and more piano-based, I think the 1984 is still the best version.

Live-Aid DVD sells for around US28 at Amazon. Even with S&H, it's about US34 (about SGD57). Gramophone price of SGD82 is really overpriced!

2004 version is out!

Where were you in 1984 when BAND AID released the song?

1) Bumming around after O levels.

2) Watched the cheesy movie "Together in electrics dreams" with a girl whom I will spend (gladly) the rest of my life with.

3) Bought 2 vinyl copies of "Do they know it's Christmas?"

4) Wondering what's going to happen in the next 20 years. Guess what, it 20 years later and I still bumming around on a Saturaday night typing at a computer forum.

halo!

halo Dude,

Finally see you posting again!
Ah! You reveal your age!

I only own a copy the 1984 Band Aid 12" single,
actually looking for the 7".

There were still lots of pirated cassettes then,
own one of it with other acts - Thank God it's Christmas (Queen)

I think the 80s was the time of exponetial growth for Singapore,
lots of haapening then. Now it's the era of home pirated music!!!
