Live Aid - Social Studies

Today is the last day of our social studies class for this term. For our last topic we are learning about Live Aid and how does this help "Ethiopia".Our work for this term is mostly in our map.For this blog, we will be analyzing song that was performed by an artist in Live Aid. We can choose any song but it need to be the song that are performed in Live aid.  


"Against All Odds" By Phil Collins


Why do you think this artist used this song for their performance?
In my opinion, Phil Collins used this song maybe because this time he was popular and same with his songs. A lot of people went to watched the show so he probably chose this song because a lot of people knows it and they can enjoy his performance and sing it with him.

Is this a form of protest?
Phil Collin song is romantic. Because of this I can say that it is not a form of protest. A lot of people enjoyed it and had fun while he is doing his performance. 

Do you think one person can start the same concert?
I think it is possible that someone will do the same concert.There are still a lot of people in different part of the world who is suffering because they are poor. I am sure that some artists wanted to help them, so if they think that it will be successful to have the same concert their gonna do the same to help those people who is suffering in their everyday life.

Include a video link of your favourite song.


How significant is music and musician today in affecting change in the world? 
Music and artists is very different from the artist before.However, there are artists who really like helping poor people around the world. Some of them is writing some songs using those issue around the world as an inspiration.This is an example of how does music and musician affecting change in our world. One  of the example is Ariana Grande's concert on 2017. In this concert there is suicide bombing happened.This is showing that they are some people who is using this times to create this kind of problems, because they think it will be easier for them since Ariana is famous and there will be a lot of people are going to her concert.

  1. Hi Shiela,
    I have enjoyed reading your blog post as it is very detailed and specific. You answered the questions with detailed answers and explained everything well. I suggest that you proofread your work first as I found some minor mistakes, like a missing apostrophe in the text "Phil Collin song is romantic." Anyway, keep it up!

  2. Hello Shiela,
    This blog post is very detailed and it shows the effort that you have given. I enjoyed the way in which you have inserted you opinions to the text as well. I admire how you have thought of the same premise when it was asked if similar concert is possible, poverty, a still major issue today. In my opinion, there are uncertainties with the usage of certain words in your sentences. As well as very few grammatical errors. Nonetheless it has informed me much of what happened then and I have enjoyed it.
