" '' ' Mandela Day ' '' " was written for the Nelson Mandela 70th Birthday Tribute ( also known as Mandela Day ) , a concert held at Wembley Stadium , London , on 11 June 1988 , as an expression of solidarity with the then-imprisoned Nelson Mandela , and was played live on that day ( alongside cover versions of " Sun City " with Little Steven and a cover version of Peter Gabriel 's '' " Biko " '' on which Gabriel himself took on lead vocals )
