Five Key Questions.



1. Who created this message? 
This song is recorded by Michael Jackson and written and composed by Glen Ballard and Siedah Garrett (Americans songwriters).

2. What creative techniques are used to attract my attention?
The most creative technique that I think he used are images. The principal idea of the song it's about to make a change, and for that he used images of important events that happened in the world. The images that attract my attention was the Ethiopian famine, where people don't have what to eat or where to live and that makes us to think about a really good change and needed

3. How might different people understand this message differently?
I think that there's a lot of people that just think in their-self and their problems and they don't care about people that really need help. Or people who think that their problems are the most important in the world and they don't want to see the other reality in the other side of the world.

4. What values, lifestyles and points of view are represented in, or omitted from, this message?
Lifestyles that are represented in this message are the Ethiopian famine, homelessness, poverty, civilizations at war, fighting for peace and for a better world. I think in this video there isn't lifestyles and point of view omitted, because it's shown the most important realities in the world.

5. Why is this message being sent?
I think that Michael Jackson wanted to show us realities that we usually don't want to see them, and all this people really need a change in their lifes and, of course, to make a change in their realities, we must make a change in our lifestyles, that's why the message of this song repeats a lot of times that we must to look al each other and realized that our problems are nothing compared with the others.
