This episode is all about the Band-Aid Number 1 - "Do They Know It's Christmas Time", written by Bob Geldof and Midge Ure, it reached applause and fame after it's release in November of 1984, and was covered 3 more times with 3 different messages attached over the years; next year celebrating 40 years since it's original release.
