EARTH SONG
Michael Jackson
What about sunrise
What about rain
What about all the things
That you said we were to gain.. .
What about killing fields
Is there a time
What about all the things
That you said was yours and mine...
Did you ever stop to notice
All the blood we've shed before
Did you ever stop to notice
The crying Earth the weeping shores?
Aaaaaaaaaah Aaaaaaaaaah
What have we done to the world
Look what we've done
What about all the peace
That you pledge your only son...
What about flowering fields
Is there a time
What about all the dreams
That you said was yours and mine...
Did you ever stop to notice
All the children dead from war
Did you ever stop to notice
The crying Earth the weeping shores
I used to dream
I used to glance beyond the stars
Now I don't know where we are
Although I know we've drifted far
Hey, what about yesterday, what about us
What about the seas, what about us
The heavens are falling down, what about us
I can't even breathe, what about us
What about the bleeding Earth, what about us
Can't we feel its wounds, what about us
What about nature's worth, ooo,ooo
It's our planet's womb, what about us
What about animals, what about it
We've turned kingdoms to dust, what about us
What about elephants, what about us
Have we lost their trust, what about us
What about crying whales, what about us
We're ravaging the seas, what about us
What about forest trails, ooo, ooo
Burnt despite our pleas, what about us
What about the holy land, what about it
Torn apart by creed, what about us
What about the common man, what about us
Can't we set him free, what about us
What about children dying, what about us
Can't you hear them cry, what about us
Where did we go wrong, ooo, ooo
Someone tell me why, what about us
What about babies, what about it
What about the days, what about us
What about all their joy, what about us
What about the man, what about us
What about the crying man, what about us
What about Abraham, what was us
What about death again, ooo, ooo

魔鏡站長解析
魔鏡站長
站長聽過林憶蓮在2011年香港演唱會的這場《Earth Destruction》，雖然歌詞原文是麥克·杰克森的《Earth Song》，但她用空靈又沉穩的嗓音重新詮釋，讓這首環保主題的歌曲多了層細膩的悲憫。特別是副歌那段「What about us」的反覆叩問，她以氣聲與真聲交錯的方式唱出，彷彿在黑夜裡輕聲呼籲人們停下來傾聽大地的傷痕。現場版的編曲相對簡潔，重點放在她聲音的質感與情感張力，尤其當她唱到「我們正在摧毀這顆星球」那句時，尾音微微顫抖的處理，讓人感受到一種深沉的無力與痛心。適合在獨處時靜靜聆聽，讓歌聲像一場溫柔的提醒，喚醒對自然與生命的敬畏。
歌曲冷知識
・這首歌透過大量排比句式的提問，將人類對環境與生命的破壞攤開在聽眾眼前。
・歌詞中反覆出現「關於我們」的詰問，強烈對比出人類在自然毀滅過程中的缺席與冷漠。
・從對自然與動物的關懷，延伸至戰火下的孩童與宗教領土，展現了宏大且沉重的生命反思。
・透過對地球創傷的細膩描寫，這首歌適合在需要沉澱心靈、重新思考人與自然關係的時刻聆聽。
