Wait Wait... "We are the World"
Singer Huey Lewis Plays Not My Job
March 15, 201310:49 AM
In honor of their 30th anniversary, the 1980s band Huey Lewis and the News is re-releasing their iconic album, Sports.
...
SALIE: I have to ask you about something that I loved when I was a teenager, "We are the World."
...
LEWIS: It was amazing. It was amazing. I mean, I'm talking to Willie Nelson about golf and Bob Dylan over here says are you guys talking about golf?
He said yeah. And Willie said, yeah, we put the clubs on the bus. And Bob says, man, that's outrageous. He says that's outrageous. I said no, Bob, "Nashville Skyline" was outrageous. This is just golf.
SALIE: In that room, were there like cool kids and not cool kids?
LEWIS: No, but Paul Simon said - it's probably not nice to say. I don't know. Paul Simon said if a bomb drops on this place, John Denver is back on top.
