I came across this very impressive and touching speech of a young girl at an UN Congress.
I`d like to share it here.
It reminds me of Michael´s work for children in his HEAL THE WORLD FOUNDATION.
This girl delivers a voice for the voiceless. Let us help the children which are all our children to save this earth for them and all to follow. Michael´s speeches about his HEAL THE WORLD FOUNDATION are posted in the MICHAEL JACKSON´S LEGACY thread. I will post here one of them though.
Sadly I cannot post it here again as this time it is blocked.
Hi Irina, perhaps you could post it? It is Michael´s speech on children´s rights at London Heathrow Airport.
Thanks :) Ute

I felt like posting this video, its message respectively in this thread. It is also posted in Michael Jackson´s Legacy thread but I feel it fits in here too. Regarding the ongoings in politics, NATO, also Vatican tries to come more forward again with its empty words, as well as in each public area where "they" are involved, I would like to remind us all of Michael´s message in this song:
WE ARE ALL CHILDREN OF THIS WORLD!! LET US STAND TOGETHER AS ONE AND LOVE IS ALL WE NEED!!
LOVE will guide us through these times and we MAY BE FULL OF HOPE that "their plan" as told by Bill Ryan (Conspiracy: police state) - btw thank you Chaturi for posting it - WILL NOT COME TO ITS END!! The signs that "they" are - seemingly very determined - about to finish "their" evil plan are very obvious listening to the news and seeing how strongly "they" try to push it forward, manipulation, lies, confusion and trying to fix more and more fear included.
BUT LET US RECALL THAT THERE IS THE HIGHEST LOVE AND LIGHT EVER ABOVE US ALL AND HE/SHE WILL HAVE THE FINAL WORD!! ONLY THIS IS OF IMPORTANCE TO KEEP OUR FOCUS ON!!
MICHAEL´S WORDS AND MUSIC ARE HEALING and we can spread them from where we stand all over the globe. By singing (and dancing) and repeating these words of the refrain "We Are The World....." - and to me they feel like a mantra - we are all able to FIX them EVERYWHERE on our planet. This will also strongly contribute to THE CHANGE NEEDED. Please listen attentively to the songtext again.
There comes a time When we heed a certain call When the world must come together as one There are people dying And it's time to lend a hand, to life The greatest gift of all We can't go on Pretending day by day That someone, somewhere will soon make a change We are all a part of God's great big family And the truth, you know love is all we need [Chorus] We are the world We are the children We are the ones to make a brighter day So let's start giving There's a choice we're making We're saving our own lives It's true we'll make a better day Just you and me Send them your heart So they'll know that someone cares And their lives will be stronger and free As God has shown us, by turning stone to bread And so we all must lend a helping hand [Chorus] We are the world We are the children We are the ones to make a brighter day So let's start giving There's a choice we're making We're saving our own lives It's true we'll make a better day Just you and me When you're down and out There seems no hope at all But if you just believe There's no way we can fall well,well,well,well let us realize That a change can only come When we stand together as one [Chorus] (this 9x) We are the world We are the children We are the ones to make a brighter day So let's start giving There's a choice we're making We're saving our own lives It's true we'll make a better day Just you and me
To show that there is no difference between us, that WE ARE ONE - no matter which country we come from, color we are or which language we speak - I also posted the German translation.
[Deutsche Übersetzung von Martin Boehme (this guy translated the songtext ; I only made some corrections with the typing)).
Es wird eine Zeit kommen Wenn wir ein besonderes Rufen beachten Wenn die Welt sich vereinigt Es sterben Menschen Und es ist Zeit, eine Hand zu reichen, dem Leben Das größte Geschenk überhaupt Wir können nicht weiter gehen Jeden Tag so tun, als ob Irgendjemand, irgendwann etwas ändern wird Wir sind alle ein Teil von Gottes großer Familie Und die Wahrheit, du weißt, Liebe ist alles was wir brauchen
[Refrain] Wir sind die Welt Wir sind die Kinder Wir sind die, die den Tag erhellen Also fangen wir an zu geben Es gibt eine Entscheidung, die wir treffen Wir retten unser eigenes Leben Es stimmt, wir werden einen besseren Tag machen Nur du und ich
Gib ihnen dein Herz Dass sie wissen, jemand sorgt für sie Und ihr Leben wird stärker sein und frei Wie Gott es uns gezeigt hat, indem er Stein zu Brot machte Und deshalb müssen wir alle eine helfende Hand reichen
[Refrain] Wir sind die Welt Wir sind die Kinder Wir sind die, die den Tag erhellen Also fangen wir an zu geben Es gibt eine Entscheidung, die wir treffen Wir retten unser eigenes Leben Es stimmt, wir werden einen besseren Tag machen Nur du und ich
Wenn du fix und fertig bist, es scheinbar keine Hoffnung gibt Wenn du gerade dann glaubst, dass wir immer getragen sind. Oooooooohh… lass uns realisieren dass eine Veränderung nur dann eintreffen kann, Wenn wir uns als Eins ( eine Einheit - unity/as one) vereinigen (wenn wir als eine Einheit stehen)
[Refrain (9x)] Wir sind die Welt Wir sind die Kinder Wir sind die, die den Tag erhellen Also fangen wir an zu geben Es gibt eine Entscheidung, die wir treffen Wir retten unser eigenes Leben Es stimmt, wir werden einen besseren Tag machen Nur du und ich
BAD TOUR 1988 Tokyo Song: "WANNA BE STARTING SOMETHING"
Coming back to our global situation - (alleged enemies) NATO and Russia now bringing themselves together more into line against Far East ( Iran) and Asia ( China) and demonstrating a future unit against the "pretended and alleged danger" = their plan, there are some keywords in this song which fit in this situation too. Basically the song and performance contains information of how the system (entertainment industry/MSM/control...) behave towards the artists, Michael repectively.
The lines at the end of this song are an everpresent call and message to the people all over the world: "LIFT YOUR HEAD UP HIGH...." (see below please).
Regarding "Ma ma se ma ma sa ma ma ma co sa" - this goes back to origin Kamerun music style and dance. For more information I will post the link below. Michael points out to his/our roots, his/our origin which is even more valid and important than ever today.
There are several brilliant performances of this song but I felt to choose this one because in our current artificially created global situation Tokyo - at least for me - is symbol for this "Far East / Asia situation (`danger`)".
Note the seven beats starting at about 0:05 please and the additional lines he sings along with "ma ma se....." . The second verse is left out in this performance. The last line of the 3rd verse is changed: "...my Baby´s slowly dyin´".

I wanted to post "HIStory song" from Michael´s HIStory tour 1997 that is also posted in the LEGACY thread. It is still blocked for Germany and btw, more and more of youtube videos are blocked here - generally but above all Michael´s work - and not only youtube videos. I am convinced that ´wanting to sell their blood album´ is not the only reason. It is simply censorship as Michael had a very important message and mission for us. And those people who censor us - though they pretend they would not and Germany would be a free democratic country - lol ( sorry that I am so ironical) - know exactly what Michael told us, his message and who he was, is respectively. It is his message they try to censor. Also his shortfilm work - either there are mostly remixes or shortened or changed versions, as I found out now searching for a good version of "Blood On The Dancefloor" and "They Don´t Care About Us". Michael´s messages in there are very present at the moment. I will come back soon and try to summarize the connection and reference of all the recently posted videos. See also below please the extended version posted by Irina.
