We Are The World 25 For Haiti

Some of the biggest stars in the music industry gathered in Hollywood on the day after the Grammys for an even bigger occasion: to record a new version of “We Are the World,” designed to benefit Haiti in the wake of that country’s devastating earthquake, as well as mark the 25th anniversary of the original collaboration. “It’s no accident this happened,” said producer Quincy Jones of the convergence of auspicious date and important cause.

The video of “We Are the World: 25 for Haiti” premiered Friday night (February 12) during the opening ceremony of the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver.
