"Let it be" - Ferry Aid
Fund-raiser following the Zeebrugge tragedy a month earlier.
Very Stock Aitken Waterman, clanking synth lines, twinkling bells, computerised drums plodding on relentlessly, and an "it'll do" production.
Artistically, there's about three great versions in here - Mel and Kim's, Jaki Graham and Edwin Starr, and the unlikely duet of Kim Wilde and Nik Kershaw.
Who's in the chorus? [ctd]
#FerryAid are still #TOTP number one with "Let it be". Attempted contrition from The Sun, via S/A/W's contact book.
Mark King from Level 42 came in after "doing" Saturday Superstore, Nick Kamen was the third member of Bananarama, Mel and Kim pulled out of telly in Frankfurt, The Christians warmed everyone up for the big singalong.
Everyone was issued with badges saying "The Sun - Ferry Aid"; by the time they shoot the video, there's a splodge of dried Tippex and the words "Ferry Aid".
