* NOTE: One of many charity/benefit singles released during the 1980s, and while this record wasn’t a major hit – peaked at #65 – what made it unusual was its flip side. The B Side of the commercial single (EMI-America 8319) was a reissue of USA For Africa’s “We Are The World.” That song was originally issued on Columbia in early 1985 and spent 4 weeks at #1 during April and May of that year.
