WELL TONIGHT WE'RE REACHING OUT, AND TOUCHING YOU:  Sir Bob Geldof has called in Britain's finest to record a new "Do They Know It's Christmas" today, 30 years after the original, to raise funds for Ebola relief. Per Geldof: "It really doesn't matter if you don't like this song, it really doesn't matter if you hate all the artists. What you have to do is buy this thing."

    Lucky for me, I like the song.

  2. Uh yeah, Geldof, but the whole point of the first one was its formula:
    1. Write a catchy song.
    2. Get a lot of famous people to sing it so that practically everyone likes *someone* on the recording.
    3. Sell it based on factors 1 and 2, plus those who just want to help.
