“Mother Nature Needs Us” is a name of a song. I listened to this song, it is not just a song but has a far-reaching idea expressed by the singer. As far as I am concerned, it is this idea that stimulates singer to create this song. She used an unique method to call on people to protect environment. By my emotional response from this song, I think that she use very happy, refreshed tone to remind people of this serious social problem. After I listened to it more than five times, I found that the lyric of this song is true becayse people can interpret real meaning of this song from the lyric.
At the beginning of this song, she told us recent environmental problem, such as acid rain, global warming and water pollution. Those are the strong points in this song. There is no doubt that environmental contaminations are not one country or area’s problem, they have become the global issue. Facing this problem, the singer wanted to use this song to encourage people to work on this issue together and find a solution. She imagined a beautiful world where people drank pure water and children could play under the clear, unpolluted sky. She firmly believed this should not be a fantasy but a reality if we could stand as one line and start planting the seeds.
What I am interested in is what seeds represented here? Do they represent the project of protecting environment, hope, or action of protecting our common atmosphere? I think all of those are seeds and useful approaches to change our current polluted world. Meanwhile, the author regards nature as mother. The fact is that we cannot survive without the love of mother. So it considerably illustrates the importance of a good environment. One line from the lyrics “we were blind but now we see” in this song has special meaning for the singer. What the singer wants to express is that “blind” referred to people damaged the environment in the past, such as hacking forest, water pollution. On the other hand, the words” now” and “see” prove the fact that people realized the problem and tried to find some ways to prevent our home from being contaminated.
It is worthy to listen to this song because it makes us feel that we should pay more attention to our environment and do something to improve the quality of our atmosphere.
