I think the song Man In The Mirror is mainly talking about making a positive change, for himself when he talks about the Man in the Mirror(himself). I think that because in the beginning, he talks about his problems, not seeing how much more fortunate he is than others. When he says "Man In The Mirror", he means himself and how he talks about the change and how he wants to . As you advance further into the song, he really becomes more change is the theme of the song, being he repeats the word many times and talks about it a lot. The speaker of this song is Michael Jackson.

The tone of the song Man In The Mirror is
somewhat more quiet in the beginning, but later on the tone becomes louder. This happens when he talks about wanting to change himself. What I can infer because of what Michael Jackson is saying, the setting here is somewhere, as he talks about a part where After listening to the song, something I found something stood out was the theme of change.

Another thing I found in the song Man in The Mirror was a theme. This theme seemed to explain how Michael Jackson visualized himself in someone else's shoes, when he says "Who am I to be blind and and how he would feel. From the music, it makes him think a little bit since he asked himself a questions. This theme is similar from the slides before, and the thought of this comes back to the theme of change.
