BAND AID 30′S first review of “Do they know it’s Christmas?” was released on UK’s X Factor on Sunday, all proceeds will be going towards the UN’s efforts to stop the spread of Ebola in West Africa. In a recent press conference Bob Geldof explained; “This video is targeted at West Africa. Africa is on the verge of radical, 21st century change, 7 of the top 10 fastest growing economies in the world, are African. It’s tragic that modernity has released this beast into the world that’s Ebola. This is a particularly pernicious illness, because it renders humans untouchable.” The track is bursting with star power and includes the likes of OneDirection, Bono, Rita Ora, Chris Martin, Ellie Goulding, Seal, Sinead O’Connor, Sam Smith, Emile Sande and Ed Sheeran. It will be available for download on iTunes later this week, have a listen!
