Ben – Earth Song Michael Jackson tribute (Carmen Monarcha)
Tribute to Michael Jackson by André Rieu, performed at Maastricht Vrijthof in July 2009, featuring “Ben” (instrumental) and “Earth Song” (Carmen Monarcha). André Rieu speaks in German, despite the concert being in the Dutch city of Maastricht. This is because the German TV station ZDF commissioned this concert. The concert also exists with André Rieu speaking in Limburgs. This version of the concert was broadcast on Dutch TV (with Dutch subtitles!) in early September 2009, a month after the ZDF broadcast on German TV, and 7 weeks after the actual live performance. At 0:33, there’s a woman with her child (which seems quite content, but not overly enthusiastic), and at 8:03, the same child is enthusiastically waving her arms in reaction to the Maastricht children’s choir waving theirs! And doesn’t the moving image at 1:42 prove that Michael is right when he says: It don’t matter if you’re black or white? We all are one human race and share the same emotions. A translation of the German text is provided by way of annotations of the video (accessible via the arrow in the bottom right-hand corner of the video if they don’t show up.)

I think on the long term MJ will be a real classic, in the mould of great artists like Mozart or Michelangelo. And people who wanted to bring him down, people who trashed him will be viewed as jealous peers who either were short-sighted to know a great artist when they see him (many great artists were trashed by their peers!) or were too wrapped up in their own evil agendas and tortured an innocent man. Because the truth will come out and eventually everybody will realize that MJ was innocent!

Every time i watch this video i have to cry. Looking to the children singing with Carmen singing this very beautiful. Looking to the audience, a lot of the people have tears in their eyes.
All this let you see that MJ was beloved by a lot of people.

I love the ‘Ben’ tribute, but the ‘Earth song’ – sorry – is terrible. She just sang it in because of the song not in in because of the message – and that’s the difference – Michael sang all his songs with passion for the message – I don’t like her voice and facial expression. THE EARTH SONG contains one of my favourite Michael lines: heavens are falling down – I can’t even breathe – I miss and love him so much! R.I.P. Michael

Goes to show what a truly amazing artist Michael was to have a tribute like this. He will be remembered forever. He touched people’s hearts and spoke to them no mater what nationality, religion, social status.
