CHRISTMAS SONGS

Do They Know It's Christmas?" is a song written by Bob Geldof and Midge Ure in 1984 to raise money for relief of 1984–1985 famine in Ethiopia. Geldof put together a group called Band Aid, consisting of leading Irish and British musicians who were among the most popular of the era. The 1984 original became the biggest selling single in UK singles chart history. It stayed at Number 1 for five weeks. It remained the largest selling single in UK history until 1997 when Elton John's "Candle in the Wind" was re-released in tribute to Diana, Princess of Wales.
