If you’re looking for more songs in support of Jamaica, there’s also “Jamaica Will Rise Again” and “Stronger Than the Storm”, both echoing themes of strength and recovery.

"I just got a call from my husband in Jamaica, and when I called him back, it went through—so it seems like international calls are working again! But his phone was damaged, so he contacted me using his friend's phone. At least that's a relief for now..."

Hurricane Melissa

Here’s a splash of what’s happened in Jamaica due to Hurricane Melissa:

Hurricane Melissa, a monstrous Category 5 storm with winds reaching 185 mph, slammed into Jamaica’s southwestern coast on Tuesday[1][2][8]. It’s being called one of the most powerful Atlantic hurricanes in history[7].

Western Jamaica faced total devastation, with entire towns submerged and over half a million people left without power[2][10].

The storm caused a communication blackout, especially in the hardest-hit areas[2].

Kingston, the capital, was spared the worst, but flooding still affected parts of the city[2].

At least 36 people have died across Jamaica, Haiti, and the Dominican Republic[3].

Relief efforts are underway, with international aid pouring in to help with recovery[3][6].

It’s heartbreaking to see such destruction. If you want, I can help you write a message of support or find ways to contribute to relief efforts.

We Are the World · Luciano Luciano & The Chosen Stars
Luciano’s version of “We Are the World” with The Chosen Stars brings a soulful reggae twist to the iconic anthem of unity and hope 🌍🎶. It’s part of the album Luciano & The Chosen Stars, released in 2010[4].

The lyrics carry the same powerful message:

“We are the world, we are the children. We are the ones who make a brighter day, so let's start giving…”[3][5]

You can listen to it on YouTube or find the full album on Amazon Music. It's a beautiful blend of heartfelt vocals and uplifting rhythms—perfect for moments when the world needs a little more love.

We Are the World
“We Are the World” is a legendary charity single recorded in 1985 by the supergroup USA for Africa 🌍🎤. It was written by Michael Jackson and Lionel Richie, and produced by Quincy Jones to raise funds for famine relief in Ethiopia[1].

Here’s a splash of its history:

Recorded on January 28, 1985, with 45 top artists including Stevie Wonder, Bruce Springsteen, Diana Ross, and Bob Dylan[2][5].

Released on March 7, 1985, it became one of the best-selling singles of all time, with over 20 million copies sold[1].

The song’s message: unity, compassion, and global responsibility—a call to help those in need[3].

It inspired similar global efforts, like Band Aid’s “Do They Know It’s Christmas?”[5].

The chorus still gives me goosebumps:

“We are the world, we are the children…”

マイティ・ダイアモンズ
マイティ・ダイアモンズ(Mighty Diamonds)は、1969年にジャマイカのキングストン・トレンチタウンで結成されたレゲエ・グループです。メンバーは以下の3人です[1]:

ドナルド “タビー” ショウ(リード・ボーカル)

フィッツロイ “バニー” シンプソン

ロイド “ジャッジ” ファーガソン

彼らは美しいボーカル・ハーモニーを特徴とし、ラスタファリ運動を背景に、社会的メッセージや愛をテーマにした楽曲を数多く発表しました。1976年のデビューアルバム『Right Time』は、ルーツ・レゲエの代表作として高く評価されています[1]。

残念ながら、2022年にリードシンガーのタビーが亡くなり、その数日後にバニーも亡くなりました[4][5]。それでも彼らの音楽は、今もなおレゲエの歴史に深く刻まれています。

来日は?
マイティ・ダイアモンズは、日本に何度か来日しています。特に1980年代から2000年代にかけて、レゲエ・フェスティバルやクラブイベントなどでライブを行っていた記録があります。ただし、詳細な来日年や公演数については明確な情報が見つかっていませんでした[1]。

彼らは日本のレゲエファンの間でも非常に人気が高く、アナログ盤やCDが限られた場所で販売されていたこともあり、コアなファンにとっては貴重な存在でした[5]。

もし具体的な来日公演の情報をお探しでしたら、当時の音楽雑誌やイベントフライヤーなどが参考になるかもしれません。

アナログ盤やCDが限られた場所で販売されていた?
いい質問です!

マイティ・ダイアモンズのアナログ盤やCDは、日本でも複数の専門ショップやオンラインストアで取り扱われています。たとえば、ディスクユニオンでは未発表音源やダブプレート仕様のレア盤が再発されており、コアなファン向けの商品も多く並んでいます[1]。

また、HMVやタワーレコードなどでも輸入盤CDやLPが販売されており、国内流通は限られているものの、一定の需要に応じて取り扱いがあることがわかります[2][3]。

つまり、「限られた場所で販売されていた」というよりは、主にレゲエ専門店や輸入盤を扱う店舗・サイトでの流通が中心だったということですね。一般的な大型店では見かけにくいですが、探せばしっかり手に入る状況です。

現在の状況は?
現在、マイティ・ダイアモンズは活動を停止している状態です。
