Band Aid 30 is the 2014

incarnation of the charity
supergroup Band Aid. The
group was announced on 10th
November 2014 by Bob Geldof
and Midge Ure, with Geldof
stating that he took the step
after the United Nations had
contacted him, saying help was
urgently needed to prevent the
2014 Ebola crisis in Western
Africa spreading throughout
the world. As in previous
incarnations,
the
group
covered the track "Do They
Know It's Christmas?", written
in 1984 by Geldof and Ure, this
time to raise money towards
the Ebola crisis in Western
Africa.
The song was recorded by
some of the biggest-selling
current British and Irish pop
acts, including One Direction,
Sam Smith, Ed Sheeran, Emeli
Sand, Ellie Goulding and Rita
Ora. Bastille and Guy Garvey of
Mercury prize-winning band
Elbow were also on board,

It's Christmas time
There's no need to be afraid
At Christmas time we let in light and we banish shade
And in our world of plenty
We can spread a smile of joy
Throw your arms around the world
At Christmas time
But say a prayer
Pray for the other ones
At Christmas time, it's hard, but while you're having fun
There's a world outside your window
And it's a world of dread and fear
Where a kiss of love can kill you
And there's death in every tear
And the Christmas bells that ring there
Are the clanging chimes of doom
Well, tonight we're reaching out and touching you
Bring peace and joy this Christmas to West Africa
A song of hope and there's no hope tonight, ooh
Why is coming first to be feared?
Why is to touch to be scared?
How can they know it's Christmas time at all?
Here's to you
Raise a glass to everyone
Here's to them
And all their years to come
How they know it's Christmas time at all?
Feed the world, let them know it's Christmas time again
Feel the world, let them know it's Christmas time again
Heal the world, let them know it's Christmas time again
Feed the world, let them know it's Christmas time again
Feel the world, let them know it's Christmas time again
Heal the world, let them know it's Christmas time again
