A Wonderful Concert For a Great Cause, 10 July 2004
9/10
Author: Claudio Carvalho from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

On December 10th, 1998, at the Bercy Omnisport Arena in Paris, a concert was presented celebrating the 50th Anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, beginning with Peter Gabriel, Tracy Chapman, Bruce Springsteen and Youssou N'Dour singing `Get Up, Stand Up'. Then, Alanis Morissette sings `Baba', `Hand in My Pocket' and `Thank U'. Kasav presents a medley, followed by `Asian Dub Foundation' presenting `Black White'. Tracy Chapman sings `New Beginning'. Bruce Springsteen sings `No Surrender' , `Born in USA' with a different arrangement and `Working in the Highway'. The marvelous Jimmy Page and Robert Plant present `Babe I'm Gonna Leave You' and the classic `Rock and Roll'. Shania Twain sings the song she made for her husband, `You're Still the One' and `Black Eyes, Blue Tears'. Radiohead presents `Karma Police', `Bones' and `Paranoid Android'. Last but not the least, Youssou N'Dour sings `7 Seconds' with Peter Gabriel, Tracy Chapman and Jocelyn Beroard'. Between the presentation of each artist, beautiful messages about the importance of the Human Rights and the role of the Amnesty International are presented, inclusive with the touching presence of Dalai Lama himself live on the stage. Michael Stipe (REM), Richard Gere, Ray Liotta, Matthew Modine and many other personalities of the artistic world give their support to this great cause through important statements. A must see concert! My vote is nine.
