“Privacy” has Jackson on the attack, as he growls about the increasingly unethical tactics of the media over a grinding beat and the sound of flashing cameras. The song hits as hard as anything on the album, its aggressive tone supplemented by symphonic strings and Slash’s ripping guitar fills. The content is, of course, a Michael Jackson staple. Indeed, it is fair to say that no popular musician of the 20th century was as consistently fierce a media critic as Michael Jackson. As a mass-communicator himself, he understood the enormous power the media held over the public’s perception of reality. Songs like “Privacy” were intended to both alert people to its deception (“You’ve got the people confused…”) and assert his humanity in the face of dehumanizing tactics (“You try to get me to lose the man I really am”).

As on previous media-aimed tracks, Jackson is shrewd enough to make the song about more than himself. In the second verse, he recounts the senseless death of Lady Diana, who was, notoriously, being chased by tabloid reporters when her car fatally crashed in 1996. “My friend was chased and confused, like many others I knew/ But on that cold winter night, my pride was snatched away,”

Jackson’s identification with another “celebrity” hounded by the paparazzi may not elicit much sympathy from the average listener. Yet Jackson clearly feels there is a larger “message” at stake in such a tragedy. His “pride is snatched away” because of a realization that his value as a human being is reduced to how much profit he can generate for a preying media. He is adressing, in other words, a system of enslavement and exploitation. Desperate to avoid this fate, he snakes his fist at the enclsing paparazzi, warning, “Get away from me!”

“Little Big Man is what we call him!” Sixteen-year-old Jermaine Jackson is talking about his thirteen-year-old brother, Michael, lead singer of the Jackson Five, possibly the greatest rock phenomenon to hit the pop world since The Beatles. Michael just sits there and grins, his sparkling eyes sending out vibrations of excitement. Magnetism, star quality, charisma- call it what you will- Michael Jackson radiates it. […] Who’s the loudest, we ask? Little Big Man, quickly renamed Little Big Mouth, wins hands down. (Little Big Man and the Jackson Four, 1972)

“I remember writing ‘Earth Song’ when I was in Austria, in a hotel. And I was feeling so much pain and so much suffering of the plight of the Planet Earth. And for me, this is Earth’s Song, because I think nature is trying so hard to compensate for man’s mismanagement of the Earth. And with the ecological unbalance going on, and a lot of the problems in the environment, I think earth feels the pain, and she has wounds, and it’s about some of the joys of the planet as well. But this is my chance to pretty much let people hear the voice of the planet. And this is ‘Earth Song.’ And that’s what inspired it. And it just suddenly dropped into my lap when I was on tour in Austria.”

-Michael Jackson on “Earth Song”
