Description
“Do They Know It's Christmas?” is a charity single by Band Aid 20, released in November 2004. The song quickly rose to the top of the UK Singles Chart, becoming the Christmas number one for that year. The track was a re-recording of the original Band Aid song from 1984, which was written by Bob Geldof and Midge Ure to raise money for famine relief in Ethiopia. The 2004 version aimed to raise funds for the Darfur conflict and other humanitarian crises.
The song features a star-studded lineup of British and Irish artists, including Chris Martin, Dido, Robbie Williams, and Bono, among others. The music video, directed by Nigel Dick, showcases the artists coming together to record the song and highlights the importance of giving during the holiday season. The success of “Do They Know It's Christmas?” not only topped the charts but also raised significant funds for charity, continuing the legacy of the original Band Aid effort.
