Im somehow for the first time learning of the existence of Do they - TopicsExpress



          

Im somehow for the first time learning of the existence of Do they know its Christmas? and -- wow -- what a load of trash. Reading the lyrics is *actually* shocking. Reading the lyrics before they were revised for this year is *actually* a harrowing experience. Raising a bunch of money for a really needed cause is great. --applause, applause. But, oh my goodness, the level of cultural imperialism and condescension not even deviously or secretly crafted into the lyrics and video production is off the charts -- skyrocketing straight into the burning sun of Africa, the mysterious land where no snow ever falls and no water ever flows (sans-tears, of course) and bells of doom fill the blood red sky and, I mean, do they even know its Christmas? How can they not?! https://youtube/watch?v=-w7jyVHocTk
