Do They Know It's Christmas? (SORRY TAKEN OFF NOW)
TAKEN FROM BAND AID II SINGLE -
DO THEY KNOW IT'S CHRISTMAS?

Produced By Stock Aitken Waterman.

Mixed By Mixmaster Phil Harding.

1989.

Band Aid II are:
Bananarama, Big Fun, Bros, Cathy Dennis, D Mob, Jason Donovan, Kevin Godley, Glen Goldsmith, Kylie Minogue, The Pasadenas, Chris Rea, Cliff Richard, Jimmy Sommerville, Sonia, Lisa Stansfield, Technotronics and Wet Wet Wet.

Hey this is a very rare single from S/A/W. It might be easy to find on 12" but rather difficult on CD single itself! I must say that I missed this release in 1989 and was indeed very lucky to own it *unintentionally* in the 90's. Well, actually I have ordered the one from Band Aid but in return I got this rare CD single from Band Aid II instead. And I got it for only at Singapore $5.00!!

Many of you especially the local people might be unknowned or even surprised with this release by S/A/W. Because I understand that the air-play is always been the original version by Band Aid which from the early 80's. Moreover, so far I didn't get to see Band Aid II feature in any Christmas compilation at all.

It's great to introduce this Christmas song to you exclusively from S/A/W stars if you haven't discovered this one. Enjoy! And do try to guess who are the ones singing next :)

Rating *****

P.S. This is the winning song in SEWC 1998 Christmas Special which most voted from SEWC visitors!! And congratulation to Ernest Tan in Singapore:

I think your Christmas special is awesome.

A lot of people do not know about this SAW produced single. In the UK, though the sale of this single is only a fraction of the first Band Aid single, it is, in my opinion, a more uplifting version. Also, the festive mood in this single is more prominent than the first Band Aid single. I am so proud of SAW! Hence, I vote for this single by Band Aid 2: Do they know it's Christmas, as my favourite Christmas featured single.

I really envy u for having gotten hold of that cd single at such a low cost. Perhaps u could share with us how to go about acquiring this single in cd format.

Well, Christmas is a time to share and so let's all give our hearts in the name of Jesus!

Merry X'mas,
Ernest
