You can wish songs- and pay for it.

They have played 2 of Michael´s songs, Man in the mirror and DSTYGE.
One of the programleaders danced to DSTYHE, tried to moonwalk and said forever king of pop.

I have wished for We´ve had enough, I hope they play it .

4000 people dies in AIDS every day, every 15 minutes someone becomes infected.

There are no cure for the disease but if people with HIV get medicine they can live a long and healthy life.
A problem is some consider it to be a shame full disease and don´t talk about it,and don´t go to the doctor to get help.

The result of musikhjälpens fundraising was over 30 million swedish crowns.
The fundraising consisted of 235000 smaller fundraisings made by groups-for example school classes, and individuals.
There were auctions, for example you could learn to crawl by the swedish team(ladies)in swimming,Next summer see a show with a wellknown artist and have a dinner with him.
When you wished for songs you had to pay for it.
They never played We´ve had enough but they played Beat it and Black or white.

2 guys promised to bathe in the stream here if the fundrasing could reach 100000 skr-it´s winter here, not so cold but you sure don´t want to bathe in cold water outside-then they promised they should walk a distance...I think it takes 3-4 hours with a car- f it reached 250000skr...it stopped at 260000

In the video you can see a girl leave money she says you don´t have to donate much, if we are many it will become a lot of money.
You can see a couple getting married there..they gave the money the wedding should have cost to musichelp

Musikhjälpen sent a reporter to Africa, you can see him crying.. he said he met so many nice people , it was terrible that people were dying in AIDS, it didn´t have to be that way.
Children become orphans and sometimes girls are forced to have sex with a man to get some food.Sometimes girls are forced to have sex to get an educaton- with the busdriver to get to school. with the teacher, headmaster and then girls are infected.
The female program leader made a little speach about women being raped,get infected and become outcasts from society.. that´s where you see them crying and hugging each other.

I think this is cool..
When the police were coming the programleders thought it was some trouble, but soon they recognized some figures in the bus

It´s a worldwide association and Nordic Garrison is part of it.
They collect money for charities, most for children.

I think this is something Michael would have loved.
