Live8 London early evening

Geldof reappeared to introduce 24-year-old Birhan Woldu, one of the starving children featured in footage broadcast during the original Live Aid concert. Geldof explained that through Live Aid money, Birhan's life was saved, and now, 20 years later, she has just passed her agricultural exams at home in Ethiopia. Madonna clasped Birhan's hand, keeping hold while performing her set opener Like a Prayer.

The Queen of pop and her band were dressed all in white, like many of tonight's performers. The singer asked London if it was "Ready to start a revolution? Ready to change history?"

She also sang Ray of Light and Music
