《地球之歌》是电影《老男孩》里的一首插曲。这首歌是迈克尔·杰克逊《HIStory》专辑中第三支进行世界范围发行的单曲，是杰克逊的“公益三部曲”之一，于1995年12月初发行。这首歌曲创作自1995年，当时世界战争不断，污染越来越严重，在那样的历史背景下，迈克尔杰克逊亲自作词，作曲以及编曲和制作，创作了《地球之歌》。《地球之歌》（Earth Song）最初以《我呢》（What About Us）的名字为《危险》（Dangerous）专辑而作，后经重新制作和优化，入选了《历史》（HIStory）专辑。
《地球之歌》首周即勇夺冠军位置并蝉联6周第一名，成为英国单曲榜历史上最重要的圣诞档期冠军曲。在整个欧洲大陆《地球之歌》几乎都是前5名的单曲。歌词以设问的形式展开，引人反思。这首歌代表了杰克逊灵魂里的许多东西。音乐录影以倒放镜头的拍摄制作手法，在荧幕上完成了一个现实中永远不可能实现的梦境。这部天真而煽情的短片引起了世人的共鸣，然而这个已经充满危机的世界的真正得救之道，还在于人类自身的觉醒、即刻的行动和不懈的努力。
