The song was a US and UK Number One for the collective in April of that year.The considerable profits from the enterprise went to the USA for Africa Foundation, which used them for the relief of famine and disease in Africa and specifically to 1984–1985 famine in Ethiopia, critics, however, claim that this money went directly to the (often military) governments of the affected countries rather than the people.Performers Al Jarreau Bette Midler Billy Joel Bob Dylan Bob Geldof (The only Irishman, and one of two non-US performers) Bruce Springsteen Cyndi Lauper Dan Aykroyd (The only Canadian, and one of two non-US performers) David Paich (of Toto) Diana Ross Dionne Warwick Hall & Oates (Daryl Hall and John Oates) Harry Belafonte Huey Lewis and the News (Sean Hopper, Bill Gibson, Johnny Colla, Mario Cipollina, and Chris Hayes) Jackie Jackson James Ingram Jeffrey Osborne Jermaine Jackson Kenny Loggins Kenny Rogers Kim Carnes LaToya Jackson Lindsey Buckingham Lionel Richie Marlon Jackson Michael Jackson Paul Simon Randy Jackson Ray Charles Sheila E.
