Earth Song创作背景
杰克逊已经有一个长期的投身慈善或社会事业的历史，杰克逊用自己的名望和财富来促进各种慈善事业，他曾在1985年创作慈善歌曲《天下一家》。
这首歌曲创作自1995年，当时世界战争不断，污染越来越严重，在那样的历史背景下，迈克尔杰克逊亲自作词，作曲以及编曲和制作，创作了《地球之歌》。
《地球之歌》(Earth Song)最初以《我们呢》(What About Us)的名字为《危险》(Dangerous)专辑而作，后经重新制作和优化，入选了《历史》(HIStory)专辑。
Earth Song歌曲鉴赏
歌词以设问的形式展开，引人反思。这首歌代表了杰克逊灵魂里的许多东西。
音乐录影以倒放镜头的拍摄制作手法，在荧幕上完成了一个现实中永远不可能实现的梦境。这部天真而煽情的短片引起了世人的共鸣，然而这个已经充满危机的世界的真正得救之道，还在于人类自身的觉醒、即刻的行动和不懈的努力。
