earth singer

Michael Jackson's 'Earth Song' was his biggest-selling UK single. Leo Hickman writes:

'The song is a very rare thing: a hit record with a powerful message about our impact on the environment. How many others can you think of? Joni Mitchell's 'Big Yellow Taxi'? Marvin Gaye's 'Mercy Mercy Me'? The Pixie's 'Monkey Gone to Heaven'? All great records, but none of them come close in terms of sales when compared to 'Earth Song'.'
