There are some big problems in the world, and this song is here to remind you that you really ought to be doing something about them, with vivid descriptions of the problem and a call to action. Often the recourse of artists who feel like they should be using their worldwide fame to make a positive impact on the big problems faced by charitable organizations — or in other cases, just a powerful subject for a good song. A more cynical potential motivation that's often suggested/joked about is that the performers don't care as much (if at all) about the cause in question as they are about the goodwill this can engender with the public and press. Don't be surprised if the music video has a number you can call to donate today, or if the publisher elects to donate a portion of all album proceeds to a relevant charity. Also a popular choice for commercials soliciting charitable donations. This type of song was particularly popular in The '80s, when it was common to round up whole choruses of name musicians to sing one song in support of a cause; the hammy, earnest performances that often end up being mocked. Or rounding up an ensemble of name musicians to perform at one big charity event, such as Live Aid in 1985. In fact, it may be on the verge of becoming a Discredited Trope: Todd in the Shadows pointed out in his review of the 2010 "We Are the World" remake that it was hard to take the whole production seriously since the original had been so often parodied after its release in 1985. Compare Protest Song, which is generally a specific protest against some specific event or practice and is more about social or political change than encouraging participation in existing charity work. See also Supergroup, when well-known performers join up to collaborate on regular musical projects. |

"We Are the World", which followed on from Band Aid's success, and likewise sought to help. Co-writer/performer Michael Jackson tried to follow this not only with the solo songs mentioned above, but with "What More Can I Give" at the Turn of the Millennium, which also enlisted a high-profile chorus of performers. It didn't work out too well. |

A variation occurs with 'The Money Song' from Avenue Q, which promotes the more selfish reasons for giving to good causes (such as the general good feeling you get from it, or the chance of impressing someone you like). After all, in the end, one's reasons for making charitable donations matter less than the fact that they're giving at all. As part of the song, the cast members go out to collect money from the audience, justified in-universe as being a whip-round for Kate's dream of building a school for monsters. In reality, these donations are sent to a local charity after the show; for instance, the original Broadway show sent them to 'Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS'. | |

"Earth", an Earth Day song written by Lil Dicky and featuring him and Justin Bieber, Ariana Grande, Halsey, Brendon Urie, Wiz Khalifa, Miley Cyrus, Katy Perry, Ed Sheeran, and several others, seems to be a parody at first: a colorful CGI music video with family-unfriendly lyrics and characters such as marijuana and HPV, as well as Casting Gags (such as the Australian Sia being cast as a kangaroo, and Grande as a zebranote "Am I black or am I white?"), it is a charity single for the Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation, which funds efforts to curb climate change. | |

It soon goes south when Scott's friends begin threatening violence against people who don't buy the games, forcing Scott to step in and change the lyrics into not buying games you should, but buying games you want. | |

On 30 Rock, Jack has a brilliant idea to record a generic charity song to have in readiness for the next natural disaster to scoop the other networks. Jenna touchingly sings "That thing that happened/was so sad/we can't believe it was so bad/when the stuff we know occurred..." Unfortunately, they air it hurriedly on news of the devastation of a small island that turns out to be Mel Gibson's vacation compound. Another episode has Jack learning that his newly discovered father Milton Greene needs a kidney transplant and that he's not a suitable donor: Using his connections and clout in the entertainment industry, he ends up getting a group of famous musicians to record "He Needs A Kidney", a charity song with the unusually specific aim of finding a kidney donor for just one person. The song, which featured real musicians such as Sheryl Crow, Elvis Costello, Moby, and two-thirds of the Beastie Boys, was released as a digital download after the show aired, with proceeds going to the National Kidney Foundation. |

"Self Destruction" by the Stop the Violence Movement. Headed by KRS-One, the song featured many New York-based rappers addressing rampant black-on-black violence in big cities. West Coast rappers responded with their own multi-rapper collaboration "We're All In The Same Gang", which had the same premise but centered on gang violence. |

Saturday Night Live had two cold openings spoof these. Recurring characters of the period, led by Frankenstein's Monster (Phil Hartman), sang "Fire Bad!" in response to the Rodney King riots of 1992. When Michael Jordan first retired from basketball in 1993, the cast spoofed such acts as The B-52s and The Proclaimers with a medley of their hits rewritten to beg him to return to the sport; the real Aerosmith pitched in with a "Dream On" rewrite. They also did a parody of the new version of We Are The World and its overproduction: Amongst the group were Rihanna, Lady Gaga, Adam Lambert, and Willie Nelson with others Another parody used the format (one of the singers was Jerry Garcia, played by Chris Farley), but the subject of the song was explaining the intricacies of Clinton's Whitewater scandal, so it was less charity-driven and more Public Service Announcement-driven. And ANOTHER one, but this time with Michael Bolton and cast for a special cause, Musicians for Free-Range Chickens, produced in part by "Whoopi Goldberg" (played by Chris Rock). |

"Do They Know It's Christmas?", co-written by Bob Geldof (of Boomtown Rats) and Midge Ure (of Ultravox) and originally performed by Band Aid, was the first of the "Charity Supergroup" songs. Two remakes, though less popular than the original, both took the Christmas #1 slots for 1989 and 2004 (the latter was the last non-X-Factor Christmas #1 until 2009), while a third in 2014 may prove that there's still a little life left in the charity supergroup. | |

As an example of his number 2 pet peeve, "Songs that try to pass off la la's, na na's, and doot do's as legit lyrics", Strong Bad gives the example of Limozeen's "Feed the Childrens".
