May all violence on this planet end, and may the end of violence begin with me.
As Mahatma Gandhi said, "Be the change you want to see in the world."
My song DARKSIDE which is a remake of Marky Mark & the Funky Bunch's WILDSIDE, explores date rape, domestic violence, dead-beat dads and body image issues/eating disorders. Everyone has either experienced one or more of these issues personally or knows someone who has. This song brings these matters into musical form because awareness of the problem is necessary in order for healing to begin. It is not about placing blame or guilt or shame. It is about taking responsibility for our issues and committing ourselves to being better people.
We all have a dark side. We all have areas in our lives that need healing. This song keeps it real, brings the darkside to the light where it has a chance to be healed, and reminds us that we all need to work on ourselves in order to make the world a better place. World peace begins with inner peace (the macrocosm is a reflection of the microcosm) and therefore if each person works on him or herself to be better, then we are on our way to utopia!
As Michael Jackson said in his song Man in the Mirror, "If you want to make the world a better place, take a look at yourself and make a change." This song is about taking a look in the mirror and having the strength, courage, desire, and determination to make that change. I bless us all to MAKE THAT CHANGE!
SONG COMING SOON!
Heal the world, make it a better place, for you and for me and the entire human race.
~ Michael Jackson
