  1. The song is true. No one thinks they have done anything wrong until they see someone else do it and see that it is wrong- Isaac Torres

    1. Yeah I have to agree with Issac as well. Because when people do something bad, it's like their not really thinking it through while they're doing it or they just don't care. Until people realize whats going on and then they have to try and fix it.-Calvin B

  2. I think the song is showing that hate and anger brings nothing but pain and sadness. If we are all nice to each other no problems like war or protests will happen.-Brendon Farrissey

  4. He helped with a lot of those causes expecting nothing in return because he did it out of generosity. He knew helping for a good reason. He did this because he wanted to not cause he was forced

  5. The song goes good with the video. He was very generous, by doing it because he wanted to make a change, not because he had to. -Desiree' McAllister

  6. I think this song makes people think about their lives and how they live. Like when I watched the video and listened to it, It made me just think about people wanting to make changes in the world but no realizing that you must make a change in yourself before trying to change other things.

    1. the video shows how other people have life so hard and it makes us realize how easy we have life and how we always want and we never give. The video also tell how he always gave gave gave and never expected anything back and that's what people need to do.

  7. It may have been made in the past, but still reigns true to today. The video was good at showing what can be true to others.

  8. We as people should think about how we shouldn't be racist against one another and that political power shouldn't overpower one another? Think about that.

  9. This song shows that you do not have to make big changes to make the world a better place. Merely having small changes can positively affect other people's lives. - Matt Larimer

  10. I think the video goes perfect for the song. People should take a step back and realize how great their lives are. Many other people in this world are struggling in life and deserve to be living in a great environment. I think everyone should make a change in the world. You have to change yourself and think about what you can do before you can be successful in the things you want to change.

  11. I also agree that this song was perfect for this video. A lot of things are going around the world, war, hunger , people suffering, but it's up to us to stand up and help those in need. We have to imagine ourself in their shoes, if we needed help wouldn't we want people to help us, get us back on our feet. Helping someone gives you purpose and true satisfaction. We also have to be grateful for what we have , because they're people out there who probably don't have the least things you do such as a home, or even clothes. The smallest things can truly make a difference.

  13. I think that this is a great song because Michael Jackson is ballin. But, I think italso makes people realize what they have and what other people don't. It also makes people realize that they can always make a change in the world by everyone just doing their part. Looking at the "Man in Mirror" is looking at a reflexion of yourself and identifying your flaws. #realtalk - Caleb Spruill

  14. It doesn't make me feel a certain type of way, but I just don't feel any "change". I get where people are coming from saying they want to change who they are, I get what he is trying to say, he's saying if you wants to change the world, you have to start by changing yourself. It just didn't get to me like it did to others.

  17. I think he got his point out. I think that his point was to be able to change the world to be better, you have to change yourself into something better. And that the people who did change the world better were good people. They weren't perfect but they were good people, and they changed a lot. And that there is still people in need of others help. And that anyone can change someone life and that person could be you. - Paige Levasseur
