Well, Lionel Richie wants to do it AGAIN!  This time, he wants to dedicate it to the victims of COVID-19.  Richie told People, “‘We Are the World’ is a statement we wanted to make. What do we do to save our own?”  The singer has the chorus on his mind and wants to bring everyone together in this pandemic.  I can’t wait to hear the 2020 version!
