    Thanks Redhead and NeedKarma for yout input...I just got the list of participants. Please feel free to correct any. I'm just matching their current pictures on this video. I really don't know who is the NO.12. Maybe one of the Jacksons.

    I believe that 10 is John Oates. It's definitely NOT Bob Dylan.

    I'm not sure who 19 is but it's definitely NOT Smokey Robinson.

    I think I have to agree since Daryl Hall is here.

    You have some mistakes here...

    12 is Ruth of the Pointer Sisters
    16 is Anita of the Pointer Sisters
    17 is LaToya Jackson
    19 is Lindsay Buckingham

    You are right - 10 is John Oates

    That is definitely not Bob Dylan. Could it be Waylon Jennings? I know he was involved, but I don't remember what he looked like.

    I just edited the pictures. Two men I am left with is he's either Bob Geldof or Waylon Jennings.
    This is Waylon Jennings now.



    This is Bob Geldoff



    What do you think?

    It's not Bob Geldof. I'm not convinced that it is Waylon Jennings, but by process of elimination I don't know who else it could be.

    OK - this has been driving me crazy, but I think I've figured it out.

    Waylon Jennings sang on the recording but does not appear in the video, so this picture can not be him.

    Huey Lewis was the only artist on the song whose bandmates (The News) also participated. I believe the photo is Johnny Colla of Huey Lewis and The News.

    Like I said, I think it's a member of Huey Lewis and the News. I think the reason that he looks so familiar is because of his strong resemblance to Kenny Loggins. Before I watched the video I thought that he WAS Kenny Loggins and that the real picture of Loggins was someone else.

    I have to agree that it might be Kenny Loggins too (like no.6) if not someone from The News. The News was on the list of participants. Their shirt is the same and both of them got a black watch. It's just on 2:23, he was still wearing his headpiece, while on 5:58 he took it off.

    Thank you guys for helping me out!

    Isn't it annoying to recall something that has to be just ordinary?

    Sorry about the above, I am wrong.

    It is Kenny Loggins.
