In 1984, Ban Aid released Do They Know It's Christmas, and to this day, it is in my rather short Christmas playlist. I'm always blown away by Boy George's vocals. So smooth and soulful. I just looked up the video to get my fix of 80s nostalgia, and it turns out Live Aid produced a 4K update of the original video. It looks fabulous.

Goddamn, we were so young.

(Look down in the video comments. Somebody went to the trouble of posting a who's-who list complete with timestamps! I love the internet!)
