USA for Africa and "The Greatest Night In Pop"
Manage episode 416781668 series 3386232
You thought you knew the story behind We Are The World, one of the best-selling songs of all time? Watch The Greatest Night in Pop on Netflix and listen to this episode, and we bet you’ll think again. We’re breaking down this incredible documentary story (which sometimes includes way too many main characters!) and bringing you our favorite revelations (Michael’s missing boa constrictor! Stevie’s face-palming suggestion! Dionne’s mysterious visitor! Lionel’s remarkable patience! The sweet and all-too-pure “yearbook” signing party … and so much more). You’ll be singing this beautiful song differently after listening, we promise, and believing that it truly was the greatest night in pop.
