Hi guys,

today we continued to analyse the video clip of "Earth Song". Here are some elements you gave:

Michael Jackson is the saviour of the Earth:

In the video, there are 2 or 3 parts.

1- The planet before / after its destruction.
2- The turning point (the climax): the earthquake when people bend down on their knees to pray and M. J. turns into a figure of Jesus Christ.
3- The resurrection of the Earth; the flashback to the origins of life and the first "era".

-> Christian symbols in the video:
* Heaven and Hell
* The cross
* The prayer
* Jesus Christ
* The resurrection
* The new beginning / The first era
* The miracle
* Noah's Arch ...
