imo this song has is an anthem to guilt-trips thinly veiled as something grand. it's a mid 80s preview of 2020s #virtuesignalling.
it's a popstar "musical" version of the starving children "please send money" ads that were spammed all over TV back then. i was in my mid teens when this song came out.
i have no faith in popstars or the media. both are vapid.
Ordinary people help each other. Super rich people with assistants and mansions align themselves and make it radioactively visible in order to appear to help.
