Ok first things first before anyone reads any further I want them to go open my profile page and just listen. DON'T read the TITLE or the SINGER I just want you to LISTEN then try to think of who it is. Once you have tried to guess who it is then come back here and read the rest of this post.
Ok Listened to the song I hope by now, if not shame on you for not going to listen. First off if you looked at the player (like I said not to lol) you would have seen the Song Name was: They Don't Care About Us (were you right?). Second the Singer of the song was: Michael Jackson (were you right again?).
Now I ask, what did you think of the song? Have you heard it before? Do you get the actual "message" and "feeling" of the song (despite who its by and weather you like him or not)? Did you LIKE the song? What parts did you like/dislike and agree/disagree with in it? Did any parts surprise you or shock you that he spoke about or mentioned (brought up)?
My personal thoughts and why I added this song to my page. I wanted to see peoples reactions for the first thing is why I added it. I wanted to see if people would like it and respond to it positively or go against it. Personally I really like the song and when I found it I thought it was a great song. It has actually been out for quite a while now (which I was surprised about)
He made a few videos for it which im going to post the links for for you to go view at youtube. I think the video's get more in depth and really make you FEEL more of the song but for those that are easily saddened (or just dont like seeing 'sad' stuff) might not watch them as he does show some things in the videos that are I guess you would say 'sad'. View for yourself if your not sure what im talking about you can always close the window lol. He made two different versions (i think both should be watched in my opinion), one is the original and then the second is the normal song again but different video. BOTH videos are very good and I think you should watch them in order. Just my opinion. Here are the links to them and I will let you be the viewers. (they call the second one the 'prison verson')

Please, leave two cents and more worth if you want. I want to hear what everyone thinks about the song and videos. Remember this is NOT a discussion on the ARTIST its about the SONG. Peace Out for now.

I'm sorry, cant listen to the song. Since our IT reformatted my pc, I can no longer listen to music and watch videos, i think I need to upgrade flash player but the problem is I dont have the privilege to download.

I think the words are very good and hit close to home for alot of ppl. I also think he sends a great message that no matter what happens it can't change who you are. The truth is there are very few ppl that care about YOU as much as you would want them too. Normally, your family and friends but so far as government, the bank teller or the general Joe Smoe on the street they don't give a fuzzy rat's butt about you.
As for Micheal Jackson himself...although you didn't ask...I have always liked alot of his music however I think he put himself in situations where he left himself open to alligations whether those are true or not. He's always done great music...but he needs alot of work in the public image and common sense departments.
