...in order of appearance. It just happens to be the 30th anniversary of this song hitting #1 on the charts. I almost got this except for one female and one male singer whose names I couldn't place.
Hint: There are 21 different artists singing parts of the song. See how many you can name in order of appearance

The lists of artists together at once is just ridiculous though. Has to be BY FAR the most musical talent ever assembled in a recording studio ever.

Do They Know It's Christmas > We Are The World and it's not close. Better song, and Geldof was actually sincere, backed up by his philanthropy over many years since. WATW was a typical "look at me, I'm a celebrity" stunt disguised as charity.

And not a single "heavy" act was invited or welcome. Dio guitarists Jimmy Bain and Vivian Campbell took umbrage at the slight and organized the MOST AWESOME celebrity music All-Star charity event ever, ever.
The project was called Hear 'N Aid. The song was called "Stars". Next week marks the 30th Anniversary of this seminal event in heavy metal/hard rock music history.
You're Welcome

Just want to go on record of saying that was the biggest piece of shite song ever...
But to add to the names I think Bono(boner) may have been on it too.
