ABOUT THIS VIDEO
"We Are the World" co-producer and vocal arranger Tom Bähler opens up in this extraordinary interview between friends to reveal what it was like to be in the recording studio when 40 of the world's top superstars in music stood together to sing one song. You'll find out who was the "king" of the room that day, how producer Quincy Jones pre-production "war room" strategy paid off, what love has to do with creating music, how artists were picked to sing solo parts, what artists needed to be closely watched, how Diana Ross converted all the minds in the room, why Michael was so quiet that night, why some artists were told to "lip sync" at certain points in the song and I can confidently venture to say, there's more…

I love how this video humanizes everyone. It doesn’t matter how big of a star you are, deep down we are all humans with the spirit to do the right thing. Thank you to Tom for coming on and sharing the experience.

This is historic record being created. As many interviews, as many expositions, as many recollections and recounts can be collected, this is how these events are going to be referenced in the future. Godspeed.

Aw that story about Diana Ross asking for an autograph was so sweet ❤

Anthony , please say hi to Tom from me.
Back in the days when I was an 8 year old boy in Copenhagen Denmark and listened to Michael Jackson the first time in 1982 I never then understood how much music would influence my life till today, now I finally found out that both you and Tom was the people behind the soundtrack too the music and sound off my youth so I thank you.
Much love from
Me, Cas

I am 53 Yld and remember as clear as day when We are the world song hit the radio station back then and the video hit the media. I was a young teenager at the time and seeing all those super stars together was a phenomena like no other to this day. As a grown man now, this video brought back so many memories and to be honest, listening to Tom talking about all that took place those 2 days, in my mind I could see it all unfolding. His profound knowledge and wisdom is invaluable. Seeing him express all his emotions about that once in a lifetime experience he lived must have been the Holy grail here on Earth. This man made me go soft at the end of his interview. I am tough as stone when it comes to emotions. I couldn't contain my tears. I felt as if he was saying goodbye. Tom if you ever see this comment (I hope so) I want to thank you for all you've done and your dedication not just for the music industry but for humanity as a whole. My deepest and sincerest admiration and respect goes to you. May your coming years continue to be full of love and joy. You've earned your way through heaven's gates... And for you Anthony, I can't thank you enough for sharing this video. You both are a legend. God bless you both!!!

“When you’re prepared, you don’t have to go to war” is the gist of every music prep gig. It is also said, “don’t give the players a reason to raise their hands.”

It's great to be able to put faces and stories to these names remembered from poring over the album credits all those years ago.

These behind the scenes stories are so WONDERFUL. Pure heaven to hear all of it. It's like a free concert ticket to what actually happened in the room that night, and I thank both of these gentlemen for capturing it on video in such exquisite detail. This, to me, is like hearing detailed first hand accounts from the people who were on the Titanic as it was going down and survived. The information is priceless, captivating, and tremendously illuminating to those who've only ever had access to the final products (song and video) after all the planning and that very special magical night of recording. THANK YOU Tom and Anthony!

I was ignorant of this gentleman before these videos but what an awesome guy with amazing stories… and… wow man, i hope i’m as vibrant and with-it when i’m 80, he has the mind of a 35 year old. God speed. Thanks

I love it how Anthony is so chilled and clear headed all the time. Great insights into nostalgia.

"You can't separate love from music." I love that thought. Einstein said there is no matter, only energy. Matter is just our perception of some forms of energy. Music is vibration, a form of perceived energy, and so is love, a form of perceived energy. Both forms of energy, music and love, are intertwined and inseparable.

So glad you are cataloging the stories behind the music in ways that could only be described by the members of the team that made it possible ❤❤❤
This is critical music industry mythology!

This is the best "behind the scene" video ever made. Wow

This guy not only is interesting because of his insights into music but has so much knowledge to share about life and living it. If I was out drinking at a pub this is the kind of person I would gravitate towards .

So much to process in this great conversation. I really enjoy Anthony being the catalyst for these chats and remembrances. He knows how to listen, but also follows his intuition; when to step in and help clarify or correct a detail, and keep things real.
Of course, reading Tom's name over the yeas, and now I am an instant fan after hearing him speak. His honest, emotional connection to his work is laid bare for us to appreciate. He has been able to take in so much detail, and we are better for hearing him share those memories with us.
Quincy has been known to be brilliant at "casting" members of a team, and delegating to people who elevate the entire project. "We Are The World" is a perfect example, as we have seen and heard from various people involved, sharing their piece of the puzzle.
The story about Diana breaking the tension is a fantastic bit of detail in the evening's progression. With that simple gesture, she allowed EVERYONE there to be a human, surrounded by so many great musical artists. I don't care who you are, the emotion must have been overwhelming for everyone, with rare exceptions. She showed it was OK to let that humanity out. ❤
These one-on-one chats are great, but having many people share informed memories is important, to keep as close to accurate detail as possible. Tom, understandably, misremembers "Bruce" (Swedien) as being there for "We Are The World", but it was actually Humberto Gatica that recorded it. After recently hearing Allen Sides talk about this recording, it would be really interesting to hear more about this project on this channel, from Anthony's friends and colleagues.
