He grew up in the south of Ethiopia which wasn't really badly affected by the famine, but many hundreds of thousands of people died and it would have been a lot more if Band Aid hadn't guilt-tripped world governments into helping out. IIRC the song was put together in a matter of hours so if some of the lyrics now seem a bit odd, that's a small price to pay when you consider how it helped his country.Originally posted by NotAllThereWhenever the Ethiopian prime minister hears the charity single Do They Know It’s Christmas? an urge overtakes him. He would like to point out that his country was celebrating the birth of Christ centuries before most of the Christian world.
