This time of year while I am playing Christmas songs, I always think of a hit I enjoyed when it came out in 1984. The revenue of this song was intended to go to the charity helping those who do not have the essentials that we take for granted.
Christmas is a time to reflect on what you have as a person: family, shelter, enough food. It is a time of excess and yet there are so many in the world without. I know I am definitely lucky – even though there have been years when we struggled, we always had our most basic needs met.
Do you remember this song by Band Aid?

Such a powerful song, but in looking at the video, it seems like such a simpler time, doesn’t it?

It was. Not only were the music videos simpler but also our way of life, I think.
