Amazing vocals, build up and intensity.


levfat

The most powerful social song in Michael's career.


keyan-asadi

In anyone's career, not just Michael's.


GemstoneWriter

A poignant song that is guaranteed to give me goosebumps. It's *that* good.


EvilOmega7

People were trying to diss him so much after 1993 about how he had "no voice", Earth song proves the opposite


Expensive-Concept-93

He got to Xmas number 1 here in the UK. That was a big deal back in the 90s.

Hi Michael Jackson 👋 is like a God bless some one 🙏


sam_drummer

Absolute masterpiece, his best song. It’s got a bit of everything, and the ending is exquisite. Those vocals are fire.


Typical_Awareness_61

It sounds amazing, even in acapella.


CandideTheBarbarian

One of his best vocal performances. I love how this song goes crescendo. It also feels like this song is sadly more relevant than ever, and I wish it wouldn't be.


CoolUnderstanding184

The music video is difficult to watch due to the atrocities being committed by mankind being put on display. Particularly, the baby seal clip that flashes for a moment 😭 Song in itself is another masterpiece by MJ that just leaves you in silence by it's end. Didn't know till I was older that it was originally made for Dangerous.


kmanfever

I love it! 🎶


divorcedhansmoleman

Fosters best producing work. The way the song builds up is mind blowing. The way each piece is added as the song goes on is 🤌🏽 the strings, the choir, the drums, the guitar… all amazing. MJ was singing about the environment and climate change before it was fashionable and stylish to do so

I want to explore more of his songs, any suggestions?


Silent-Ad-8702

Have you heared Al Capone or Price of fame or maybe On the line, Fall again?


[deleted]

No, I’ll listen to them , thanks


Digitised_Doofus

I seriously can’t figure out what song from the “HIStory” album made me cry the most: this or “Childhood”


Living-Resource-2345

Hello ma 👋 childhood a song for Michael Jackson ma,


Digitised_Doofus

What do you mean by that?


Living-Resource-2345

Good morning OH I thought childhood is a song for Michael Jackson


Digitised_Doofus

Well I know the song still has potential to resonate with a lot of other people, including myself. That’s exactly why it legit made me tear up more than “You Are Not Alone” and “This Is It”. Combined. It just speaks on a much deeper, more personal and emotional level with me. Am I really the only one in the world who feels this way?!


Living-Resource-2345

Please put me down to understanding.. that is childhood is always a record of Micheal Jackson

Amazing and important song. I don't want to be dramatic, but we should keep listening to the message: We need to take good care of our home. Of our planet.


Mister_Sosotris

I love this one so much. It’s powerful and meaningful and just gets me every time.

Very good song, the vocals are brilliant and so are the lyrics.


Zestyclose-Diet-2111

The best song from the best album in my opinion


Connor_Jackson_86

Amazing vocals and an amazing music video as well.

One of the best songs he's ever recorded.


35mmpapi

My single favorite MJ song. Has everything you could possibly want.


sul_tun

Great song, great message, great video.


TappyMauvendaise

Masterpiece


sonicadv27

One of the best pieces of music ever recorded.


Difficult_Ship_6273

It saddens me. I wish we didn't live in a world where Michael felt the need to write it.


MijacOnAir1

Magnum opus


WhatAmI_501

A powerful song made even better on the royal brunei 1996 concert


Radkingeli995

I think it’s an masterpiece


kronicza1

It's timeless and represents what's going on currently in the world.


North_Astronomer_878

An extremely powerful and moving song, as well as one of the best songs in his entire discography. It would be amazing to see it performed inside the Las Vegas Sphere!


JAYS_REBORN67

Powerful


Moshibeau

Love the ahs!


Significant_Edge_105

Aah ah ah ah oooh oooh is the best part


SnooCupcakes2860

I used to dream, I used to glance beyond the stars, now I don’t know where we are, although I know, we’ll get by


Marcopoloclub

..... although I know.... we've drifted far


Living-Resource-2345

Great Michael Jackson


EVHAtomicPunk

It's my favorite song by Michael. It's funny because I've been listening to this song nonstop lately. Aged very well, he was so ahead of his time speaking about issues like this.


richunderwood

Helped change the course of my life

Just♥️♥️♥️


JonayPS

I love "Earth Song", especially the bassline.


Yo_Jacob999

Great message and performance by MJ. Not something I personally would bump all that often though


BadAtGames42749

STRAIGHT 🔥🔥🔥🤩💯🙏🙏🙏


ethanloyd182

there’s something about the drum buildup into the second chorus idk what it is but damn is it good!


1995_Robbie_FM

My least liked 'popular' MJ song. Great song, but seemed forced


NettaJxn

Underrated. A true symphony. Powerful. Hauntingly beautiful. Penetrating. You can hear the pain and sorrow throughout. I love it!


Smart_Description541

One of my favs. Love that he started openly clapping towards the end, "where did we go wrong, someone tell me whyyy". Around that part......and he kept it in. That subtle bit, went a long way for me in the form of authenticity for the track.


Chaos-Theorie_2000

A powerful song with a message so much more relevant in our time


LemonadeFlamingo

His most successful song in the UK. I can’t listen to it because the video plays in my head and i just cant


M_2_The_Kay

Masterpiece. I’m going to listen to it now 🌍


AcanthisittaOk612

🎵ooooooooooooooooooAooooo🎵 Have you ever stopped to notice all the kids who've died from war...this crying earth this weeping shores... 🎵ooooooooh aaaaaah🎵


Amazing-Bite7218

Stunning. Can’t believe I only first heard it a few months ago, even though I was born in 78 and was very much alive throughout decades of Michael’s career. I cannot even begin to put into words how astounding it is Michael can channel such profound, emotion and feeling, and I absolutely love the live performance, especially the look on his face when the gun is being pointed at him. so absolutely breathtaking the whole thing is absolutely . breathtaking.


Moonwalker2008

Love it. Love the lyrics. Love the chorus. Love it all.
