The Earth we share is not just a rock tossed through space, but a living, nurturing being. She cares for us, she deserves our care in return.”
~Michael Jackson
Fresh off of the Grammy tribute here we have a quote from MJ himself. At the Grammy tribute to the late artist those in charge saw fit to use the song “Earth Song” with Celine Dion, Jennifer Hudson, Usher, Carrie Underwood and Smokey Robinson.
This quote makes it plain and shows that it isn’t odd at all that a Black person might say that. Free of vocabulary words like sustainability, dark green, CFL and carbon footprints here we have a statement about the environment all kinds of people, Black or otherwise, could get behind. It’s just that simple.
I think Michael Jackson genuinely cared for the environment and I thought that song was an odd choice. There are only so many singers who convey a sense of caring about the environment and a willingness to put that in their work as Michael Jackson in my opinion.
Here’s the performance if you want to check it out for yourself. Sadly the words seemed so incidental. Maybe it’s good they chose to highlight his sincere interest in the planet.
Keep up the informative writing. I enjoyed reading your article. Thanks
Michael you are a great person!!! No one could ever be you! All you ever did was care about the world we live in! One line from Earth Song, that I loved was, “I used to dream. I used to glance beyond the stars. Now I don’t know where we are
Although I know we’ve drifted far!” Such true words! This world used to be OKAY, but now, it’s just falling to pieces! SAVE OUR WORLD! SAVE OUR WORLD LIKE MICHAEL DID!!!! RIP MJ! Thank you for everything you’ve done! Thank you for caring and worrying about this world like everyone else should have. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!!!!!:)
Thank you Nancy!
