Live Aid

Bob Geldof is a vocalist and artist and was a piece of the ¨Boomtown Rats¨. He was brought into the world in Ireland on 5 October 1951. He went to a private catholic school however educated the public that he didn't appreciate going to the school on account of its Catholic ethos and tormenting his absence of rugby abilities.

He was engaged with the Live Guide Show. Bob Geldof was one of the fundamental coordinators of the Live Guide show in Wembley Arena, London. It was held for 16 hours and was named a stone spectacle and was pointed toward fund-raising and mindfulness for Africa.

Midge Ure was an individual from the New Wave band Ultravox. He was the guitarist and singer for the gathering. Midge Ure was brought into the world on October 10, 1953, in Glasgow, Scotland. He was acclaimed for one of the hit melodies that he co-composed and delivered. The tune was ¨Do they Know It's Christmas?¨, which sold 3.7 million duplicates in the UK. The tune is the second most noteworthy selling single in UK outline history.

Along with bob Geldof they coordinated the Live Guide Show and delivered the single ¨Do they Realize It's Christmas?¨ Bob Geldof and Midge Ure were motivated by the predicament of starving youngsters that were generally seen on television. It was an unconstrained occasion with a large number of the most popular names in popular music welcomed. It turned into a moment blockbuster selling a record 3 million duplicates.

Do They Know It’s Christmas?
In October 1984, Bob Geldof visited Ethiopia to see their situation for himself. When Bob Geldof made his return he and Midge Ure of the group Ultravox produced the song ¨Do They Know It’s Christmas¨ and gathered up many different British Pop Stars and the name of Band-Aid to record it in time for the holiday release.  

It was continued by holding two simultaneous 16-hour concerts in Philadelphia and London. Multiple artists like Paul McCartney and the band Queen received immense popularity during the concert. The concert raised $127 million and was broadcasted over to over 110 countries. Geldof, after the concert, went to Ethiopia to oversee the distribution of supplies, so that they're distributed fairly.

You could say that Live Aid was a form of protest. The concert was to raise awareness about the situation in Ethiopia and protests are done to raise awareness about a certain topic. 

Artists organise different concerts all the time and since there has been a lot of topics that need to be raised so I think that artists could come together and raise awareness and raise money to donate. 

Stress

 

When I'm Sixty Four - The Beatles

When I get older losing my hair

Many years from now

Will you still be sending me a Valentine

Birthday greetings bottle of wine

If I'd been out till quarter to three

Would you lock the door

Will you still need me, will you still feed me

When I'm sixty-four

You'll be older too

And if you say the word

I could stay with you

I could be handy, mending a fuse

When your lights have gone

You can knit a sweater by the fireside

Sunday mornings go for a ride

Doing the garden, digging the weeds

Who could ask for more

Will you still need me, will you still feed me

When I'm sixty-four

Every summer we can rent a cottage

In the Isle of Wight, if it's not too dear

We shall scrimp and save

Grandchildren on your knee

Vera, Chuck and Dave

Send me a postcard, drop me a line

Stating point of view

Indicate precisely what you mean to say

Yours sincerely, wasting away

Give me your answer, fill in a form

Mine for evermore

Will you still need me, will you still feed me

When I'm sixty-four

CULTURE

Art

Term 1 Art, this term in art i've been working on this painting and vocal points, the first thing i see in my painting would be the spider which is in the middle of the painting. Before we did the painting we had to do a few thumbnail sketches,  one for what our painting will look like, another for if we are going to add something to it to make it look more detailed. 

Here's my finished Painting, for the greenstone and the Maori carving, on one side is green so it can be similar colour to the greenstone and the other side is like a orangy colour so it can be noticeable for the carving...

After finishing my painting we then blue tacked them to the wall for display... 

Vietnam - Jimmy Cliff

The message for this song is: Jimmy Cliff wanted to get across with his song "Vietnam" was that the Vietnam war had to stop because the families were losing all their men, but Jimmy Cliff also wrote this song as a support to the soldiers fighting at war.

Hey, Vietnam, Vietnam, Vietnam, Vietnam
Vietnam, Vietnam, Vietnam

Yesterday I got a letter from my friend
Fighting in Vietnam
And this is what he had to say
'Tell all my friends that I'll be coming home soon
My time it'll be up some time in June
Don't forget, he said to tell my sweet Mary
Her golden lips as sweet as cherries

And it came from
Vietnam, Vietnam, Vietnam, Vietnam
Vietnam, Vietnam, Vietnam

It was just the next day his mother got a telegram
It was addressed from Vietnam
Now mistress Brown, she lives in the USA
And this is what she wrote and said
Don't be alarmed, she told me the telegram said
But mistress Brown your son is dead

And it came from
Vietnam, Vietnam, Vietnam, Vietnam
Vietnam, Vietnam, Vietnam
Somebody please stop that war now

It was just the next day his mother got a telegram
It was addressed from Vietnam
Now mistress Brown, she lives in the USA
And this is what she wrote and said
Don't be alarmed, she told me the telegram said
Oh, but mistress Brown your son is dead

And it came from
Vietnam, Vietnam, Vietnam, Vietnam
Vietnam, Vietnam, Vietnam
Somebody please stop it

Vietnam, Vietnam, Vietnam, Vietnam
Vietnam, Vietnam, Vietnam
What I'm saying now somebody stop that war
