简介:
这套DVD共4张D9碟，总时长为10小时，带DD2.0、DD5.1、DTS三条音轨，音质不错。引人注目的就是演出名单了，几乎汇集了所有当时最红的欧美歌手和乐队，MJ、Queen、U2、Madonna、Bob Dylan、Neil Young、Paul Young、David Bowie、Sting,、Phil Collins、Sade、Dire Straits、Joan Baez、the Who、Elton John,、George Michael、Paul McCartney、Eric Clapton、B.B. King、Bryan Adams。。。。。。光看这些名字你就可以想象当时的盛况了。这很容易让人想到1969年的woodstock音乐节。同样是星光灿烂盛况空前，两者的区别在于，Live Aid有着明确的目的，即为非洲人募捐，呼唤爱心，而woodstock则是宣传“和平、反战、博爱、平等”的理念。
1985年7月13日，名为“拯救生命”的大型摇滚乐演唱会，这是一场横跨多地区的摇滚音乐演唱会的伟大的演唱会。该活动是由Bob Geldof和Midge Ure发起，旨在为发生在埃塞俄比亚的饥荒筹集资金。共有9万人观看了演出。演出一直持续了10个多小时，并通过全球通信卫星网络向140多个国家播出了实况，估计总共吸引了近15亿的电视观众。全世界100多位著名摇滚乐歌星参加了这次义演，他们之中有鲍博·迪伦、保罗·麦卡特尼、布鲁斯·斯普林斯廷、蒂娜·特纳、艾尔顿·约翰、皇后乐队、U2、迈克尔·杰克逊、麦当娜·西科尼……
Live Aid之中，就是那首群星组合“USA for Africa”演唱的脍炙人口的“We Are the World”，动听的旋律，动人的歌词，强大的演唱阵容，巧妙的编排，使它成为一首前无古人后无来者的完美的群星合唱歌曲。行家一出手，就知有没有。 “USA for Africa”请到的都是重.量级人物，虽然每人只有一句歌词，却都显示出雄厚的唱功，余音绕梁，耐人回味。演唱顺序和和声安排的尤为巧妙，错落有致，使得每个人都能展示自己的特色，又保持了整首歌的风格的统一。这不是第一首群星义唱的歌曲，却是影响力完美的。“We Are the World”被翻唱多次，无论是配器，还是唱功、和声，都不能令人满意，包括帕瓦罗蒂的版本。同年，罗大佑写了《明天会更好》、郭峰写了《让世界充满爱》，后来，每逢特殊时期，如洪水、非典等，都有义唱歌曲，显然都是受了“We Are the World”的影响。
