Cover art for Earth Song lyrics by Michael Jackson

Patobrien, I'm not trying to minimize what MJ has done (rather, has been accused of..) but no one is perfect. The message in this song is more important than the messenger. It makes me want to cry when I visualize what he is saying. Also, I think MJs anti-semtic comments were spoken out of frustration. Blaming an entire ethnic group for one's troubles in irrational, but who is above making generalization? Most of us have at some time in our lives.
