DO THEY KNOW IT'S CHRISTMAS
by BAND AID 20
The third chart-topper from the Band Aid conglomerate, which this time included Number 1 veterans Natasha Bedingfield, Daniel Bedingfield, Sugababes, Busted, All Saints, Dido, Robbie Williams, Paul McCartney, U2’s Bono, Will Young and – on teamaking duties – Blur/ Gorillaz hitmaker Damon Albarn, as well as the likes of Roisin Murphy, Rachel Stevens, The Darkness, Estelle, Dizzee Rascal, Jamelia and members of Radiohead, Snow Patrol, Keane, Feeder, Ash, Travis, Supergrass and Coldplay.
Bob Geldof and Midge Ure united to rerecord the song this time in aid of famine relief in the Darfur region of the Sudan, and Band Aid 20 shot to Number 1 for four weeks over the Christmas period.
