Title: New version of Do they know.....
Post by: Jessica on November 18, 2004, 01:50:47 PM
Version n?2 by Sir Bob Geldof. The song was sung in the 80's by most influent british singers of then.
It's for africa.

Here is this year's line up ( 20 years after original) and a link to the song :

 Chris Martin: 
It's Christmastime, there's no need to be afraid 
At Christmastime, we let in light and we banish shade 
 
Dido: 
And in our world of plenty we can spread a smile of joy 
Throw your arms around the world at Christmastime 
 
Robbie Williams: 
But say a prayer, Pray for the other ones 
At Christmastime it's hard, but when you're having fun 
 
Sugababes: 
There's a world outside your window 
And it's a world of dread and fear 
 
Fran Healy: 
Where the only water flowing 
 
Fran Healy & Sugababes: 
Is the bitter sting of tears 
 
 
 
Fran Healy & Justin Hawkins: 
And the Christmas bells that ring there are the clanging 
chimes of doom 
 
Bono: 
Well tonight thank God it's them instead of you 
 
Will Young & Jamelia: 
And there won't be snow in Africa this Christmastime 
The greatest gift they'll get this year is life 
 
Ms Dynamite & Beverly Knight: 
(Oooh) Where nothing ever grows 
No rain nor rivers flow 
 
Group of ten & Joss Stone: 
Do they know it's Christmastime at all? 
 
Tom Chaplin (Keane): 
Here's to you 
 
Justin Hawkins (Darkness): 
Raise a glass for everyone 
 
Dizzee Rascal: 
Spare a thought this yuletide for the deprived 
If the table was turned would you survive 
 
 
 
Charlie from Busted 
Busted: 
Here's to them 
 
Justin Hawkins (Darkness): 
Underneath that burning sun 
 
Dizzee Rascal: 
You ain?t gotta feel guilt just selfless 
Give a little help to the helpless 
 
 Busted: 
Here's to them 
 
Justin Hawkins (Darkness): 
Underneath that burning sun 
 
Dizzee Rascal: 
You ain?t gotta feel guilt just selfless 
Give a little help to the helpless

Do they know it's Christmastime at all?

Feed the world

Feed the world

Tecnically it is No.3 because they did one in 1989 or summat. That was shite. So is this one.

If it isn't christmas number one (in England at least), then I'll eat any active poster on this board that you vote for.
