    Band aid 30.

    Buy the song Stop the virus Band aid exclaims!
    between all the stars that have been involved with this record i,m sure they could raise millions all by themselves.
    but no they want the public to fork out for the man made virus and the chances are they probably will!
    not only the band aid record but also television adverts asking for donations to help stop this virus.

    they create it we pay for it!

    now if your daughter had passed away through drug addiction would it not be more appropriate as a music mogul to make more younger people aware of the danger of drugs and addictions?

    or get your other mate who makes millions ripping off the public and rewrite a rubbish song to do it all again?

    create a virus,exploit the African countries again,create propaganda and post harrowing images and you have the public lining your pocket!

    some of the music talents in this video maybe unawares of what they are involved in!

    but some are!

    Lets bring multimillionaires together as they know it will create sales.Why not bring normal members of society together well i think we all know the answer to that

    live aid we all bought into,the images,the starvation ect ect.
    as we have grown and become wiser they are now targeting the younger audiences with their younger new talent.
    it is brainwashing at it,s best.
    a viscous cycle!that they know they can get away with,because the minority that can see through it all will not outweigh the majority.

    the ptb hate the African countries and it,s people.
    in movies they love to riducule a black person.
    often dressing a black man in a dress!or the black man dies first!
    always portrayed as a lesser human being or slave.
    the African countries are not given the help they need,they are kept well dumbed down in education,technology and not given the resources to help themselves.

    why do the ptb hate them so much?could it be that from those countries there is a truth held there somewhere that the Satanist of this planet try to destroy and overwhelm?

    i have felt this a long time with bob.
    and other celebrities.

    i think it has been mentioned a sacrifice ritual is required!

    when the Haiti earthquake hit and planes where having difficulty landing and delivering vital aid.
    why was John Travolta given special requirements to deliver his aid over the convoys?
    because he is a movie star?

    what happened to his first born?

    on Haiti remember the groups who said they where trying to help children but really trying to abduct them by the dozens?

    has Haiti had the aid that was raised by the charities ,all seems to go quite within months as all major things do and another is born.

    Yep it is sickening how they know we are caring compassionate beings and how they prey on this beautiful aspect of our humanity while laughing at our gullability and so called stupidity...................

    Yes we are gullible...................no we are not stupid, underneath it all we are loving and peaceful and it is they that are stupid! They still haven't figured out after thousands of years that we will never acquiece to their way of being or succumb to it either and that in the end we will create heaven right here on earth.

    I may not be around to experience it but damn I will certainly do what I can while I'm here to continue with intention the creation to make this planet a better world for those to come.

    You may be interested to read the text of an interview by Fuse ODG, who was invited but declined to feature on the recording:

    " Why I had to turn down Band Aid
    Saying no to Bob Geldof was hard, but when I saw how negatively the lyrics portrayed Africa I had no choice"

    Fuse ODG
    The Guardian, Wednesday 19 November 2014

    Saying no to Bob Geldof is one of the hardest decisions I have had to make this year. However, seeing what looked like the corpse of an African woman being carried out of her home on primetime TV when the video was premiered on X Factor crystallised my concerns about this strategy to combat the Ebola crisis. For me it is ultimately flawed.

    A week before the recording of Band Aid 30, I received a call from Geldof asking if I would take part. I was honoured to be asked and, connecting with his passion for wanting to tackle the Ebola crisis, said I wanted to offer my support.

    But I also had my concerns. I was sceptical because of the lyrics and the videos of the previous charity singles, and I worried that this would play into the constant negative portrayal of the continent of Africa in the west. Geldof and I spoke at length about this and he agreed with me on many levels, assuring me that we could use it as an opportunity to showcase the positives of Africa.

    However, on receiving the proposed lyrics on Thursday – two days before the recording was due to take place in London – I was shocked and appalled by their content. The message of the Band Aid 30 song absolutely did not reflect what Africa is truly about and I started to question whether this was something I wanted to be a part of.

    I pointed out to Geldof the lyrics I did not agree with, such as the lines “Where a kiss of love can kill you and there’s death in every tear”, and “There is no peace and joy in west Africa this Christmas”. For the past four years I have gone to Ghana at Christmas for the sole purpose of peace and joy. So for me to sing these lyrics would simply be a lie.

    In truth, my objection to the project goes beyond the offensive lyrics. I, like many others, am sick of the whole concept of Africa – a resource-rich continent with unbridled potential – always being seen as diseased, infested and poverty-stricken. In fact, seven out of 10 of the world’s fastest growing economies are in Africa.

    Let me be clear, I’m not disregarding the fact that Ebola is happening and that people need help. Since the start of the outbreak in March it has killed more than 5,000 people. But every human being deserves dignity in their suffering and the images flashed on our screens remove any remnants of this from Ebola sufferers, many in their dying moments, when they should have it the most.

    I am not disputing Band Aid’s good intentions. But the shock-factor strategy they have used since the 1980s has sparked a whole wave of “good cause” organisations that have been irresponsible with regard to the images shown to the rest of the world. It’s been totally one-sided. That’s understandable in part, as they wouldn’t raise much money if they showed the affluence, wealth, and happy lifestyles that exist in the continent. But in the process of doing all this “good work” a huge imbalance has been created.

    That image of poverty and famine is extremely powerful psychologically. With decades of such imagery being pumped out, the average westerner is likely to donate £2 a month or buy a charity single that gives them a nice warm fuzzy feeling; but they are much less likely to want to go on holiday to, or invest in, Africa. If you are reading this and haven’t been to Africa, ask yourself why.

    This is New Africa (Tina) is a movement empowering people to shed a positive light on Africa. I was born in Tooting, south London, and was taken as an infant to Ghana. Returning to London at the age of 11, being African was not something to be proud of because of all the negative connotations it conjured up, and it drove me to be almost ashamed of who I was.

    Anyone who has experienced Africa in a positive way is a citizen of the New Africa and needs to play their part in challenging perceptions. I’m sharing my experience through my music – and if I can make chart-topping music that celebrates Africa then surely Band Aid and its extensive network can do the same. I’ve performed in two of the three countries currently hit by the Ebola crisis, where I have friends and loyal fans, and will be donating the proceeds from my next single to help tackle this issue.

    I hope from the bottom of my heart that the disease can be eradicated in Sierra Leone, Liberia and Guinea. But though shock tactics and negative images may raise money in the short term, the long-term damage will take far longer to heal."
