Katharine Wroth made some good points about Michael Jackson and his contributions to ecological consciousness over at Grist-

“Given [Earth Song's] universal success and the repeated showing of its powerful video, it is highly likely that it was the spark that made many people—particularly young Michael Jackson fans, which, even in the mid-1990s, would have numbered many millions of people around the world—stop and think about environment for the first time.”

Earth Song is still one of my favorites, both in the original form and in the Earth Song Remix (Pit Bailay Maxi Mix) version by Terence.

Michael is a tremendous lost and I'm feeling really sorry for his crossing, but really, he finally found peace. He wouldn't be able to resume his activities anymore, anyway. Those pervs managed to indeed destroy his brilliant career.

Michael in my native country. It's a shame so little people outside Brazil watched this version of the video....
