This headline-grabbing song, a collaboration between two superstars—Paul McCartney and Michael Jackson—became a massive hit in 1983.

We Are the WorldUSA For Africa

U.S.A. For Africa – We Are the World

A signature song of the ’80s, “We Are the World.” To put it plainly, it’s a piece created by gathering a lot of famous singers of the time, with Michael (Jackson), Lionel Richie, and Quincy Jones making the song.

It was the original track that brought together star artists for charity.

The melody is catchy and the tempo is on the slower side, so I think it’s easy to sing.
