"What More Can I Give" by Michael Jackson

These are the after-math photos of the famous 9/11 incident. 

The September 11 attacks (also referred to as September 11, September 11th, or9/11) were a series of four coordinated terrorist attacks launched by the Islamic terrorist group al-Qaeda upon the United States in New York city and the Washington D.C. on Tuesday, September 11, 2001.

This week's topic would be focusing on Michael Jackson's tribute song for the incident which is entitled, "What More Can I Give". 

Here are the lyrics, thanks to: http://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/michaeljackson/whatmorecanigive.html

[Celine Dion:] How many people will have to die before we will take a stand?

[Billy Gilman:] How many children will have to cry, before we do all we can?

[Reba McEntire:] If sending your love is all you can give

[Nick Carter:] To help one live

[Usher:] How many times can we turn our heads

[Brian McKnight:] And pretend we cannot see

[Mariah Carey:] Healing the wounds of our broken earth
We are one global family

[Jon Secada:] Just sending your prayers

[Beyonce:] Is something you'll feel
Helping one heal

[Chorus:]
[MJ:] What have I got that I can give?

[*NSYNC:] What have I got that I can give? 

[Luther Vandross:] (Tell me)

[MJ:] What have I got that I can give?

[Justin Timberlake:] (Yeah, yeah, uh, uh)

[*NSYNC:] To love and to teach you
To hold and to need you
What more can I give?

[Aaron Carter:] Brother to brother

[Mya:] lay down our fears and reach out and make a pact

[Gloria Estefan:] Show him the love that is in our hearts let us bring salvation back

[Luther Vandross:] Just sending your love has the power to heal

[Shawn Stockman:] So let's all give

[Chorus:]

[All:] What have I got that I can give?

[Luther Vandross:] (Is not allowed to give just a little bit)

[All:] What have I got that I can give?

[Luther Vandross:] (Everyone should be a part of it)

[All:] To love and to teach you
To hold and to need you
What more can I give?

[MJ:] Say the words
I'll lay me down for you

[Celine:] Just call my name
I am your friend

[MJ:] See, then why do they keep teaching us
Such hate and cruelty?
We should give over and over again

[All:] What have I got that I can give?

[MJ:] (We should give over and over again!)

[All:] What have I got that I can give?

[MJ:] (Oh my god, oh my god) 

[Boyz II Men:] (Oh my Lord)

[All:] See, to love and to teach you
To hold and to need you
What more can I give?

[All:] What have I got that I can give?

[Mariah:] Aahh...

[All:] What have I got that I can give?

[MJ:] (give you, give to you)

[All:] See, to love and to teach you
To hold and to need you
What more can I give?

[All:] What have I got that I can give?

[Celine:] (What More Can I give?)

[All:] What have I got that I can give?

[MJ:] (I wanna give to you, give it to you)

[All:] See, to love and to teach you
To hold and to need you
What more can I give

[MJ:] (they think I'm crazy but I'm not!)

[2nd Chorus:]

[All:] What have I got that I can give?

[MJ:] (To give it to you)

[Mariah:] Aahh..

[MJ:] (we wanna give to you!)

[All:] What have I got that I can give?

To hold and conceal you
(Oh, no, yeah, yeah, yeah)

[All:] To love and to heal you
What more can I give?
(Give me, give me one time more)
What have I got that I can give?

[Gloria Estefan:] (What I got, what have I got) 
(Say your prayers)
What have I got that I can give?
(Show the world how much you really care)
To love and to teach you

[Celine:] (To love you, teach you)
To hold and to need you

[Celine:] (To hold you, to need you)
(What more?)
What more can I give?

[All:] What have I got that I can give?

[3LW:] (What can I give? Tell me what can I give you)

[All:] What have I got that I can give?

To hold and conceal you
To love and to heal you
What more can I give?

   This is a very wonderful song, which I believe is not just intended for the 9/11 incident, but can be applied to other instances.
