Netflix’s ‘The Greatest Night in Pop’ documentary explores the making of ‘We Are the World’

Netflix’s behind-the-scenes documentary, ‘The Greatest Night in Pop’, delves into the impressive backstory behind the iconic charity song ‘We Are the World’, featuring a star-studded lineup of musicians. Directed by Bao Nguyen, the film offers a captivating insight into the recording of the historic song in just one night.

On January 28, 1985, over 40 renowned musicians, including Michael Jackson, Diana Ross, Paul Simon, and Billy Joel, gathered in secret to record ‘We Are the World’ as a fundraiser for famine relief in Africa. The documentary showcases the making of the song, from its conception to the recruitment of talent and the recording process, utilizing archival footage and interviews with key figures such as Lionel Richie, Cyndi Lauper, Bruce Springsteen, and Kenny Loggins.

Aside from chronicling this pivotal moment in pop culture, ‘The Greatest Night in Pop’ also aims to convey the extraordinary star power that converged at A&M Studios in 1985. The film explores the dynamics of bringing together some of the world’s most famous musicians, highlighting the blend of egos and camaraderie stemming from their shared celebrity status.

With a more relaxed and celebratory approach, the documentary offers a unique perspective on the historic recording session, capturing the essence of a once-in-a-lifetime gathering of music legends.
