11. "Man in the Mirror" Michael Jackson (Pop)

I think like it means that he's gonna wanna make a really big change, but he has to start with himself. He sees all these kids out in the streets, barely eating, and all this other stuff that he ignored at first. He says the lines "who am I to be blind with pretending not to see their needs." So he looks into the mirror and asks himself. so he starts with himself to make a big change...starting small. The message in this song is simply that, "If you wanna make the world a better place, take a look at yourself and make a change." Basically, if you want to change the world, change yourself first. This is a song that deals with Poverty and the peoples lack of responsiblitiy for the sick and dying. I think this song is important also in the black story, because much black people live in poverty.
