In conjunction with World AIDS Day (December 1st), MSN celebrated the launch of (RED) WIRE, (RED)’s new digital music magazine designed to help eliminate AIDS in Africa. To learn more about (RED) WIRE go here.
If you are a U2 fan then you must check out yesterday’s (RED) release of their cover of “I Believe in Father Christmas” orignially written by Greg Lake of “Emerson, Lake and Palmer” fame. What is especially interesting about U2′s rendering is a very subtle yet thoughtful change in lyrics. What was originally:
“They sold me a dream of Christmas, They sold me a silent night, They told me a fairy story, Till I believed in the Israelite.” Becomes; “But I believed in the Israelite.” Enjoy!
