USA For Africas recording We Are The World (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WeAretheWorld) featured anyone who was anyone in the music world of the 1980s: Michael Jackson and Lionel Richie wrote it, Quincy Jones produced it and it seemed every artist who had hit the charts performed on it.
Now theres a Japanese version.
Im not sure why, or if there even really needs to be a reason for this kind of consummate entertainment, but its out there in all its glory, with Japanese impersonators filling the roles of everyone from Michael Jackson to Tina Turner and even Cyndi Lauper (www.youtube.com/watch?v =36wCyqCO1A).
Heres another one some of you might be too young to remember %26mdash; Tetris.
Have you ever played it? How about Human Tetris? Swiss artist Guillaume Reymond did just that using a bunch of people, and auditorium and a spot of stop-motion video (www.youtube.com/watch?v =G0LtUX6IXY).
And for those of you who are too young to know Tetris, its the original falling blocks game (www.tetris.com) %26mdash; both simple and addictive.
Customer service dramas update, week 10. You guessed it, still nothing from Telecom on my broadband dramas earlier this year.
