Alongside legends like Bob Dylan, Diana Ross, Ray Charles, Tina Turner, Bruce Springsteen, Michael Jackson, Stevie Wonder and Paul Simon was Kim Carnes, who is best-known for her 1981 single Bette Davis’ Eyes - which topped the US Billboard hot 100 for nine consecutive weeks and was No.1 in 21 countries.
Michael Jackson's surprising gesture to pop star behind scenes of We Are The World It’s been 40 years since a supergroup of America’s biggest stars came together in a Los Angeles studio to record We Are the World - the fastest-selling US pop single in history.
And the quadruple-platinum single - written by Michael Jackson and Lionel Richie and produced by Quincy Jones and Michael Omartian - raised more than $80million for humanitarian aid in Africa and the US.
Standing next to Michael Jackson - who only finished writing We Are The World the night before the recording - Kim, now 79, remembers holding his hand.
She says “Michael Jackson and I were able to have some conversations and that I found to be pretty incredible.
