Heal the World - Michael Jackson

The song "Heal the World" is the sixth single from the Dangerous album by Michael Jackson. He himself said he wrote this song in a tree in his Neverland Ranch, in addition to being considered one of the most successful songs of his career.Heal the World
Was inspired by the song name to create the Heal the World Foundation in 1992, a foundation of  aid homeless children. This is a charity which Jackson sent 46 tons of humanitarian aid to Sarajevo, performed multiple campaigns against drug and alcohol abuse, and donated millions of dollars for children in poverty or ill, including full payment of liver transplant.
During the video you can see several pictures of sick children in extreme poverty, people in the war while there are children playing and people of different races and cultures. Many children and adolescents are also seen running together, and with candles in hand somehow symbolizing peace and tolerance. ending the video you  see a hand holding the world symbolizing the union.
I think the lyrics of the song leaves a clear message, which is in favor of the unity of the people regardless of race, sex or culture, in an attempt to get a better and fairer world, where there is no fear, pain, and as the song says "together we cry happy tears" to heal the planet, which every day is changing and not necessarily for the better, that is why with the help of all and the infinite love that each one has can make the world shine, because if everyone puts a bit, you can achieve a great change can be significant.

This song definitely sends us a very important message, and we have to realize we are doing things that are really hurting many people, especially children and help each other, because we are all brothers and sisters on this great planet called Earth.
