[ laughter ] simpson: the women didn t get the rating system they wanted, but they did get a commitment to begin applying a printed inscription on the packaging of albums, cassettes, and music videos warning that they contain blatant explicit lyrics. good rock and roll breaks all the rules, okay? that s just the way it is. that s the way it always has been. elvis presley was not good for the children either. good morning, everybody. i m very pleased to announce live aid which, without a doubt, will be the largest pop concert ever held. majewski: live aid was the brainchild of bob geldof and midge ure. and the two of them were looking to raise as much money as possible for the famine victims in ethiopia. ramsey: when tomorrow s 17-hour fundraising concert starts, sellout crowds in the stadiums will be joined
