In efforts to help rebuild Haiti after the 7.0 magnitude earthquake devastation which took place January 12, 2010, artists such as Usher, Celine Dion, Kanye West, Mary J. Blige, Tony Bennett, Pink, Barbara Streisand, Toni Braxton, Nicole Scherzinger, Jordan Sparks, Justin Bieber, Jennifer Hudson and many more all came together to remake "We are the World". The original version was recorded by the Supergroup USA Africa in 1985, produced by the legendary Quincy Jones. The world premiere of the song's video aired Friday, February 12, 2010, during the opening coverage of the Vancouver Winter Olympics on NBC. Originally penned by Michael Jackson and Lionel Richie, this year marks the 25th year anniversary of the original version, which was created to build awareness of Ethiopia's 1984-1985 famine.
