78. Band Aid’s ‘Do They Know It’s Christmas’ (‘84, ‘89, ‘04, ‘14) - Which version is best?

TRIMMING THE COVER POD: It’s snowing outside so it must be time for our 2022 Christmas show!  And we‘re taking on a Christmas charity classic: Band Aid’s ‘Do They Know It’s Christmas’. Not just the 1984 original but Band Aid II (‘89); Band Aid 20 (‘04) and Band Aid 30 (’14).  Which get the thumbs up from Paul & Stephen?  Look out for strong opinions, interesting facts and bad Davie Bowie impersonations. The boys also make to time to listen to USA For Africa’s ‘We Are The World’. Has it aged well? Did it really need to last 7 minutes?!  An episode that features Bono, Bros, Dido, Kylie, Sting, Dizzee Rascal & Big Fun. Who would have thought! Enjoy! Merry Christmas!  00:00 Intro  01:47 Band Aid discussion  11:11 Band Aid II discussion  17:11 Band Aid 20 discussion  23:02 Band Aid 30 discussion  28:14 USA For Africa discussion  38:00 Outro 🥊  Like the podcast?
