Michael Jackson – Earth Song
Original 1995 European 12" Maxi Single Epic 662569 6 • Made in Holland • Original Hype Sticker ```A Powerful Michael Jackson Collectors’ Release
Released in 1995 during the HIStory era, Earth Song became one of Michael Jackson’s most emotionally powerful and socially conscious recordings. Its dramatic arrangement, gospel-inspired climax and message about humanity’s treatment of the planet helped make it a lasting favourite far beyond the world of pop music.
This original European 12-inch edition is especially appealing because it presents the extended Hani’s Around The World Experience, running for almost fifteen minutes, alongside two previously unreleased club mixes of Wanna Be Startin’ Somethin’. It offers a very different listening experience from the standard single and gives the music the space, dynamics and scale that only a full-size vinyl release can provide.
Collectors value this edition for its authentic 1995 Epic presentation, Dutch manufacture, full-size picture sleeve and surviving original promotional hype sticker. For ordinary listeners, it is simply an impressive analogue edition of one of Michael Jackson’s most moving songs, paired with energetic remixes of a timeless dance-floor classic.
