OK, quick survey suggests that the message from Jackson to Cocker to Ciccone is quite similar: it's all about YOU, the individual, it comes from inside you baby.
Evidence:
MAN IN THE MIRROR M. Jackson I'm Starting With The Man In The Mirror I'm Asking Him To Change His Ways And No Message Could Have Been Any Clearer If You Wanna Make The World A Better Place Take A Look At Yourself And Then Make A Change
FROM A TO I J. Cocker
It’s the same from Auschwitz to Ipswich: Evil comes I know from not where. But if you take a look inside yourself – maybe you’ll find some in there.
HEY YOU M.Ciccone First love yourself Then you can love someone else If you can change someone else Then you have saved someone else But you must first love yourself Then you can love someone else If you can change someone else Then you have saved someone else
And the message of Live Earth is that we're all contingent in this while kind of implicitly, quietly, letting governments and corporations off the hook. Feel guilty about yr light bulbs baby while we light up the Wembley sky with our megawatts.
