We Are the World "We Are the World" is a song and charity single originally recorded by the supergroup United Support of Artists (USA) for Africa in 1985. It was written by Michael Jackson and Lionel Richie (with arrangements by Michael Omartian) and produced by Quincy Jones for the album We Are the World. With sales in excess of 20 million copies, it is one of the fewer than 30 all-time physical singles to have sold at least 10 million copies worldwide.
Africa (Toto song) In 2015, Paich explained that the song is about a man's love of a continent, Africa, rather than just a personal romance.[8] In 2018, Paich explained the song is about a person flying in to meet a lonely missionary.[9] As a child, Paich attended a Catholic school. Several of the teachers had done missionary work in Africa, and this became the inspiration behind the line "I bless the rains down in Africa."[9]
