** Various comments Michael made about "Heal the World" from ''Music/{{Dangerous}}'' and "Earth Song" from ''Music/HistoryPastPresentAndFutureBookI'' suggest he intended them as magnum opuses that would become international anthems.

Due to said album already coming close to maxing out the CD (clocking in at 77 minutes with 14 full tracks), Mike ended up shelving the song for special edition releases in 1993 and 2001, only for the song to get shelved indefinitely (the first time due to Jackson's child molestation allegations, the second due to both [[ExecutiveMeddling growing tensions between Jackson and Sony]], and [[ExecutiveVeto Def Jam vetoing the release of the song]]).
