smile.gif To me, anything to raise money for charity is good thing. I bought the new Band Aid 20 single after hearing about it so many times. Whaddyathink? Is it pretty rubbish mad.gif , or better than the old one that was done 20 odd years ago (I wasn't even born then). Let me know!

Just found out there's a programme about the making of the single on Monday 6th December (BBC1 11pm ish - in Scotland, that is). I wonder if the scrap between Bono and Justin Hawkins of the Darkness really happened.
It's getting a bit boring to listen to now - they should've included the video on the single. Not quite as good as the original cos the clapping at the end spoils it. The only thing Sir Bob needs to do now is release it in the States! biggrin.gif

This is a website where you can hopefully find out more if you don't have a clue what Band Aid is (sadly I forget the rest of the world sometimes!):

It's not to terrible, it's just not what I would have expected. I have listened to the old Band Aid and it sounds much better in my opinion.
