Hope For Haiti aired this passed Friday, the telethon raised more than $57 million, watching the entire telethon was emotional, the stories in addition to the singers who sang their own rendition of popular hope & resilience songs, shook me and I was tearing up so much.
One story about a man believing and hoping his wife was still alive under the earthquake's rubble, was in fact alive stating "Dead or Alive: she loves her husband".
Even in my local Kroger grocery store, there are Haiti charitable donation set up at each check out counter; I donated what ever change I received back from my change to the donation box.
I felt the "Best" perfomances were sung by these Singers and Song Writers:
Mary J Blige who sung 'Hard Times" Come Again No More"
Christina Aguilera sung amazingly beautiful: "Lift Me Up"
Madonna sang an up beat: “Like a Prayer” with a choir, that was phenomenally joyous
Jay-Z Rapped while on stage U2's Bono & Rihanna gave vocals to:
"'Stranded' at Haiti (Haiti Mon Amour)"
Taylor Swift Soft and gentle song: "Breathless"
