"We Are the World" by U.S.A. for Africa

On a remarkable night in 1985, an ensemble of music's brightest stars united to record a benefit anthem. This song soared to become one of the best-selling singles in music history and has since served as a touchstone for parodies and cultural nods. In celebration of the recent Netflix documentary chronicling the recording session, we at One Hit Thunder have chosen to make an episode about this iconic track—the sole chart-topper by U.S.A. for Africa.  If you like the show, be sure to rate, review, and subscribe.
