Edit/added on 25 March 2021: Here we are now 6 years from this upload, and over a year into "Pandemic Lockdown of 2020" (I write this on 25th March 2021). Almost a time capsule for years to come. I wish you peace, health and happiness no matter who you are or where you are in the world. Original text: 5 years on, TH-cam decides today's the day this gets recommended. Hello to everyone watching in 2020!
Awesome job by all. Thank you for sharing this with all of us. We are the world and it's up to us to spread peace and love to all. And one of the best ways is through music.
I swear once this whole COVID 19 is all over, we should all be singing this song on top of our lungs. I just pray that all of us will be saved from this global pandemic. Our children, brothers, sisters and mothers and fathers deserve to live longer and continue living in this world. We should love each other and instead of fighting, we should learn to forgive each other despite of our repercussions in life. So to the world and beyond, we can get through this because we are the children of God. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
We should be singing this right now. During the pandemic. To show unison. To show that we are united. To show that we are the world. We will get through this. Together.
I agree! I'm bawling my eyes out right now. I think this just brought home things in my own life. I lost my best friend to cancer in December. My kitty, Ms Phoebe, passed in February just short of her 22nd birthday and I myself have spent 6 weeks of the last 8 in the hospital. It's been a rough, rough year so far. I'm praying for better times soon!
It was written by a master. Who had so much love for humanity. This song we are the world Should be Earth's national Anthem. Celebrated on the world Earth day.22/4/22. It should be sung in every language on Earth.
The world needs more positivity like this. Brought a tear here in Ireland with all this Coronavirus negativity going on. Big big hugs from Dublin ☘️ ❤️
I am watching this in August 2020. I'm sitting here crying because I remember exactly what I was doing and how I felt back when the "Hand's Across America" movement was happening in the '80s and I can't believe what has happened to the USA. I pray we can find a way back somehow.
Thanks to Lionel Richie and Michael Jackson for writing such an important, inclusive song that has stood the test of time! I can’t believe this video has been on TH-cam for years and I’m just now seeing it!
Would be nice to see something like this after the corona virus... A flash mob doing this song. Would love see/hear that :) To everybody around the world I wish you all the best in these difficult times This shows that we are all the same we are all living on the same planet and must react as 1 Peace and love is all we need!!!
Tell you what: find a great flashmob and post it, every day. Doesn't matter if a dozen people want to share an Ode to Joy the same day. Remind each other that there are still people out there and it's possible for joy to catch fire from a few notes or an everyday-looking somebody wandering into the scene...
We should be singing this right now. During the pandemic. To show unison. To show that we are united. To show that we are the world. We will get through this. Together.
Awesome! Beautiful! Thank you! More of this all over the world. We Are The World, We Are The Children! Watched in Australia, February 2024. Again, thank you, and well done.
This has SO much meaning, right here.. right now. Bless us all, here’s to coming out the other side. Stay strong all. Let’s look after each other, always xx
@Charles Johnston not at all that song gave me goose bumps all over and i have thatt song still playing in my head ever since.....the tears just keep comjng...U R not alone
Come on youtube. This is something that should be glorified. This keeps people pre occupied. Please make sure that this kind of thing be broadcasted please. We need this more than terror. The joy this brings helps physical communication to prevail....
Dear human beings out there, please stay healthy and positive. I'm writing from germany and we're near of a risky region. All of us need hope more than anything else. I'm thinking of you, maybe you could think of my baby girl and me, too.
Damn what an uplifting beautiful song and the fact that there’s so many different people from all walks of life shows that proves we can live in peace and harmony
Eu sou portuguesa,mas vivi no Brasil, e soube que recentemente a livraria cultura de São Paulo encerrou😢, eu adorava ir lá... Pelo amor á cultura comprem livros!💜🙏
This songs come full circle Not just for staving people when originally aired. But now as lyrics take us to having hope in a crazy world right now. Thankyou Micheal Jackson and Lionel Richie for this timeless song for writing it
I think we might need to put out songs like this every week, for any and every tragedy our family suffers. YOU ARE ALL MY COUSINS!!! This was a fantastic group action, so glad I saw it, so sad I did not see it sooner **hugs**
Wonderful! How I wish we could be “ one”, humans, capable of such cruelty, hate and selfishness, but also capable of such heroism, compassion, kindness, courage and strength! Look at all the bystanders joining in! The MJ, guy is FANTASTIC!
Parece que foi ontem, mais já se vai 30 anos dessa lindíssima música cantada pelo saudoso MICHAEL JACKSON que é um sucesso lembrado até hoje a Livraria Cultura está de Parabéns pela lembrança e também à todos Cantores que se apresentaram essa garotinha linda que também participou você vai longe ♥️♥️♥️👏👏👏💋💋💋
I propose that this song be adopted as a global anthem for all people everywhere. We need now more than ever to embrace our neighbors in our hearts and extend our prayer and good will everywhere as we are all in this together.
Watching this in 2023 loveit! I love the original and watch the video from time to time when I need some reason to continue. This is priceless and timeless!
There is more that unites us than separates us......We really are One......This is beautiful. Thank you, love and peace to everyone, From Ireland, Big Hug!
Sehe dieses Video am 11.04.2023 und frage mich: Was ist los mit der Welt ? So viel Leid, so viel Hass und dann, durch solchen Content erfährt man wieder wie wir ALLE zusammenhalten könn(t)en. Warum muss es so weit kommen...
Tenho sessenta e dois anos e não posso evitar chorar ao escutar sempre ésta canção pela vigencia que ainda tem e pelas lembranças que me traz desses cantores maravilhosos dos quais algúns já fizeram a passagem e outros estão idosos mas continúan cantando e todo o sucesso que aconteceu com ésta música; impossivel não lembrar da minha familia e eu assistindo o video dessa música extasiados por ver tantos cantores famosos juntos com vozes maravilhosas unidos para uma causa solidaria; poderão imitar algo assim mas foi e cotinuará sendo uma criação única!
With all that has gone on since the pandemic was discovered, this is something that we all need, not only for ourselves, but for all of mankind. Seeing strangers coming together as friends is something that has fell by the wayside in this last year. Thank you so very much, and, especially to the singers - God Bless you all. Perhaps we should all take a page out of your book - I know I will.
You made me cry. Such a beautiful thing to do. Singing with all their hearts drawing everybody in. Must play this tonight when we cLap for NHS. Thank you
way deep down i wish the whole world was like this in the store, one massive happy family..lets hope one day all on this planet can be joyful,helpful,and happy and live meaningful lives...🌍
Imagine that. People living, singing, celebrating in harmony. Does not get old. MJ never fades.

This song never fail to make my tears drop.........
We should do this again after this mega pandemic......🙏🙏🙏
I am a 60 old man 😢 always song is amazing. Love to all
True.. My tears drop.. Just kistening to this song... And i remeber Michael jackson... I miss him too much
I remember when this song came out I was in my early 20's no song has ever reached me more than this one did then and still does today. Anna In Ohio

Тhis song should be passed down from generation to generation as a hymn to the world!
Michael would be so pleased with the children singing together with all the other persons
I agree 100 %
I don’t think this song will ever age. You should do a good deed by giving either money or volunteer time to charity as long as that still applies!
It was written by a master.
Who had so much love for humanity.
This song we are the world
Should be Earth's national
Anthem.
Celebrated on the world Earth day.22/4/22.
It should be sung in every language on Earth.

Tbm vim ver hj
Maybe 20% Lionel Richie and 80% of Michael Jackson
Michael wrote 95 % of it.
This sounds so beautiful. If more people would get together like this, the world would be a better place.
I'm Brazilian. I love Brazil and i love the World. Tears always fall when I hear this song.
Would be nice to see something like this after the corona virus...

If the king of pop was here, he would have been proud of all of you who had taken part of this flash mob.
And he would have been very happy/ pleased!!!

This song by USA for Africa in 1985 will never get old, I was so moved by this video!
Atitudes como Michael Jackson e tantos outros artistas salvaram muito mais vidas do que muitos governantes de países ricos.
I never could imagine a better place to see perfomed this amazing song! Thank you so much!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤ ❤
Wonderful! How I wish we could be “ one”, humans, capable of such cruelty, hate and selfishness, but also capable of such heroism, compassion, kindness, courage and strength! Look at all the bystanders joining in! The MJ, guy is FANTASTIC!
The little girl killed it with her magical voice ❤💝💖💗
Runs shivers down my spine, every time I hear this song. well done guys

Just so beautiful seeing everyone coming together ❤
This song is so powerful. It makes me cry .Everything going on in the world.Lets all be safe and pray 🙏.
