ORIENTATION
Heal The World is one of Mellow's songs popularized by Michael Jackson or often dubbed 'King of Pop'. The song was released in 1991 on an album entitled "Dangerous". Heal The World in Indonesian means Healing the Earth. The song lasted 6 minutes 22 seconds is about us who must make the earth a better place for our children and grandchildren later. This song calls for peace and the call to live based on love and affection among human beings.
INTERPRETATION
At the beginning of this song, there was a little boy who read a poem. He thinks about the younger generation, the younger generation say they want to make the world a better place for their children and grandchildren. He thinks they can make it a better place.
The Earth can become much brighter if you really try. You will not find anything to weep, no sorrow or sorrow. This song explains that there are so many ways to achieve it, if you care about life. Michael Jackson invites us all to heal the world, for you and all mankind.
If we try, we will see in this happiness we can not feel fear or horror. Love alone is enough for this world to grow. The lyrics tell us that there will not be a good world if the war continues. War continues to occur, ranging from tribal wars, religion, until the international war even today. People are selfish, selfish, and too demanding of position or position. They do not care about their brothers, there is no sense of kinship and friendship anymore. However, Michael Jackson still assumes that everyone in this world is his brother. We must not discriminate against race, ethnicity, religion or economic background even until hostilities occur. This song wants no longer racist in this world.
The dream we have imagined, will dribble the face of joy. The world we have believed, will once again shine in beauty. But why, we continue to strangle life, injure the world, and crucify his soul. Although it looks simple, but this world is part of heaven. Be the sheen of God, we must be grateful for all the blessings from God.
We can be high, do not let our souls die, do not let our spirit goes out. Let us create peace and a better life in this world without fear. Together we will cry happily to see the countries replacing their swords with peace. Michael Jackson believes that we can all really achieve peace if we all care about life.
EVALUATION
Besides having a deep meaning, this song also feels comfortable to hear because it has the strains of a touching tone. This song can also be said to be one of the all-time pop songs that will continue to be remembered until whenever. This song is still often used in news - news about the events on earth and during the events - the event of peace. Unfortunately, the duration of this song is too long so listeners can be bored. At the end of the song, the song reff is also repeated many times. I think this is less efficient because reff songs are sung too often.
SUMMARY
However, overall this song is really a song that has deep meaning and is needed for the people of Indonesia today. Given the current little riot between religious followers who held a demonstration on 4 November 2016 yesterday. I hope they soon reconcile. This song gives me the motivation to continue to keep the earth for me, all mankind, and our children and grandchildren later.
