      Just to add some about the great Dionne Warwick. She began singing as a child in church & is 1 of the most charted female vocalists ever, with 56 (of 80) singles making the Billboard charts (12 top 10s). She has 12 Grammy nominations, 4 Grammy wins, + Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award. Her sister was singer Dee Dee Warwick. Their mother, Lee, was the much older sister of Whitney’s mother, singer "Cissy" Houston, so Dionne (born 1940) & Whitney (born 1963) were 1st cousins.

    That was definitely Lionel Richie with Stevie Wonder, then Paul Simon with Santa Claus aka Kenny Rogers, followed by James Ingram. Yes you were right on with Tina Turner who was with Billy Joel. Then we see the legend Micheal Jackson with Diana Ross. The one you thought who was Whitney was in fact Dionne Warwick (Whitney's Cousin) then Willie Nelson followed by Al Jarreau then....'Yes I love him...who is this? It's Bruce Springstein, followed by Kenny Loggins, Steve Parry, Daryl Hall, MJ, Huey Lewis with Cindy Lauper followed by Kim Carnes. Yep Quincy Jones conducting then others in the chorus were John Oates, Randy Jackson, Latoya Jackson, after whom Bob Dylan came in as solo. That may have been Shelia E. with the glasses on who you thought to be Mariah Carey. More chorus members were Dan Aykroyd, Harry Belafonte and Anita Pointer. Then the legendary Ray Charles came in, followed by Stevie Wonder and Bruce Springstein. Other chorus members were Bette Midler, Lindsey Buckingham, Jeoffrey Osborne, Ruth Pointer, Tito Jackson, Jackie Jackson. James Ingram comes back in with a powerful solo, followed by Ray Charles and that is definitely Lionel Richie Shavonn...

    Also, Bruce drove his own car, no guards, to that music shoot. And that rasp was part of what Quincy Jones wanted from him because it was on his then-current Born in the USA hit.

    I love James Ingram's solo part near the end. That man was a great vocalist. Some other people who should be mentioned, that didn't have solo parts. Harry Bellefonte, the man who had the inspiration for the song. He got the inspiration from the British artists who did "Do The Know It's Christmas" the year before. Harry is standing on the top row, next to comedian Dan Akroyd (Saturday Nigh Live, Blues Brothers, Ghost Busters) representing Canada. John Oats is in the choir group ( dark black frizzy hair and beard) Daryl Hall sang the solo part right after Steve Perry. Hall & Oats is considered the most successful duet in history. All the members from "Huey Lewis and the News" were there. Huey sings the solo line right after Michael Jackson's second solo line. Bette Midler is seen in the front with the Jackson family (look for her red hair). I think she is standing next to Latoya. Smokey Robinson ( tight kinky hair) is in the choir as are all the Pointer Sisters. Near the end as the camera pans you see Jeffrey Osborn, and next to him is Bob Geldof singer from the Boomtown Rats.

I know every person in there because I’m 57 and grew up with these artists. We had music in the 80’s like none other.....auto tune didn’t exist, nor click tracks....so you had to be talented and be able to perform LIVE. I’m about to write the solos names in order of appearance- then I’ll do the choir. Definitely google these stars and check out a song - a few of them are Grammy winners- when that still meant something.
