What's goin' on? / Somebody Help Me / Tell me
People dyin' / Yeah
People cryin' / Uh-huh
Lord, help us / Come on
Greg Page Of the Wiggles:
Mother, mother
There's too many of you crying
Shakira:
Oh, brother, brother, brother
There's far too many of you dying
P. Diddy:
That's right
Metallica's James Hetfield:
You know we've got to find a way
To bring some lovin' here today
Natalie Cole:
Oh my father, father
We don't need to escalate
Jagged Edge (Brandon):
You see war is not the answer
Kenny Lattimore & Chante Moore:
For only love can conquer hate
Wild Orchid (Stacy Ferguson):
You know we've got to find a way
To bring some lovin' here today
Jessica Simpson:
Barricades can't block our way
Chilli Of TLC:
Don't punish me with brutality
Adrienne Bailon & Jessica Simpson:
Talk to me, so you can see
Oh, what's going on?
What's going on?
What's going on?
Yeah, what's going on?
What's going on?
What's going on?
Ja Rule:
What's going on in a world filled with pain?
Where's the love for which we pray?
What's going on when our children can't play
Homeless can't eat?
There's gotta be a better way
What's going on when we politically blind
Can't see the signs of endangered times?
What's going on?
Nelly Furtado:
Oh, oh, tell me
What's goin' on in the world today?
I'd rather be dead than turn my head away
We got a first world vision
Too comfy to lift our hands in the air and cry for a switch
Dave Grohl:
Mother, Mother
Pharrell:
Mother help us, come on
Dave Grohl:
Everybody thinks we're wrong
Raven Symone:
Oh, but who are they to judge us
Simply because our hair is long
Jermaine Durpi:
United we stand, Divided we fall
Johnny Gill:
You know we've got to find a way...
Keyshia Cole:
...to bring some understanding here today
Jagged Edge (Brian):
Barricades can't block our way
Wes Scantlin:
Don't punish me with brutality
Jagged Edge & Keyshia Cole:
Baby, talk to me
So you can see, yeah
What's going on
What's going on?
Hey, what's going on?
Somebody tell me what's going on
I'll tell you what's going on, yeah
Nelly:
What's Going On 'cross seas
Every minute a child dies by this disease
In record numbers indeed
Got momma's crying out please
My baby hold on
My child ain't done nothing wrong
Still I want to holler
Ask them why they don't bother
Oh no, oh no
Make me turn to my father
And ask him why they all got a trapped soul
Nas:
I can feel what was bothering Marvin
Why his words forever remain
Dealing with these modern day problems
'Cause of ignorance surrounding me and my constituents
Too many infected, too many lives diminishing
Nobody say Protestants, Jews, Blacks and Whites, Latinos and Asians
Pray together, less fight
We better unite
As genocide and chemical war
And the rich and the poor
Know that God delivers a cure
Lil' Mama:
It's a shame our reality is devestating
People praying for a cure, dying while they're waiting
Ask the Lord for the comfort and the strength to face it
All the kids with dreams won't get the chance to chase it
Makes me sad
Think about the lives they would've had
Think about the orphan babies got no moms and dads
How can we sit back and not try to make it right?
We gotta come together
We gotta fight for life
Rev. Run:
Somebody tell me what's going on
We got human beings using humans for a bomb
But everybody wanna live
Don't nobody really wanna die
You feeling me, right?
I can't be watching people die
And watching people cry
Let me break it down for a minute
If there's enough room here for you and for me
There's plenty of room for some humanity
All artists, at various times:
Somebody tell me what's going on...
What's going on?
What's goin' on? / Somebody Help Me / Tell me
People dyin' / Yeah
People cryin' / Uh-huh
Lord, help us / Come on
