Michael was obsessed with this movie as many of his generation were. He hated Spielberg as a man, but adored his artwork.

Maybe at a passing glance the main theme is similar but the chord progression is totally different. Jaws end credits is a little sea shanty calling them home. Heal the world is not a sea shanty. There is also a key change in Heal the World. Jaws end credits does not have a key change.

I've just noticed it and came online to see if someone else noticed too. The resemblance is uncanny

There's a place... in your heart... and i know that it is love.... And this place... could be brighter than tomorrow......🎶

er no, its kind of a pleasant sound both are and thats it man, wow people have different perceptions in life.

MJ's lucky John Williams wasn't as ruthless as Prince. Prince is know for suing artists for sampling the tiniest sound or a single word from his songs. He once sued Arrested Development for $100k because they sampled the word ''Tennessee'' from his single ''Alphabet Street'' using it in their hit song titled ''Tennessee''. To be fair to Prince, he waited until the song became a huge hit before demanding compensation because they could afford it. Shows how business Savvy Prince was. He could have sued them straight away, walking away with far less $$. Prince would have had a field day with Michael Jackson 😂

HEAL THE JAWS KKKKKKK

I heard this before heal the world so when I hear that song it reminds me of Brody and Hooper returning to shore.

The shark knows there is a place in your heart and it knows it is love.

not sure what this is - but to me the ending of jaws was the most beautiful part of the movie.

Considering Speilberg himself stole ET from the “The Alien” by Satyajit Ray which was a conscious thing, unlike this likely subconscious inspiration.

What if it is :O

I've got the Jaws soundtrack. It's blatant theft. Obviously. Jackson was a Spielberg fan/friend back in the day and for sure will have seen Jaws.

24 measures taken from John Williams for sure

HUH? . . . You sure about that?

no jaws in heal the world

Increíble cómo el agua desafía la gravedad

YES, thought I was the only one who noticed :D

If you don't have relative pitch it will be harder to notice the similarity obviously!

There are a lot of people that are tone def the present state of music should prove that. A lot of people can not tell one note from another and anyone that can not hear the exact duplication of the note especially the large interval between the last two notes are tone def. John Williams was even asked about it but he said he didn't care to push the issue.

I don't understand those who say the 2 are not identical. As one or two have pointed out, there are 19 consecutive notes (not 6) that are identical between the two. To those who have asked which, the notes are this parts of the lyrics: There's a place in your heart And I know that it is love And this place could be much Brighter than tomorrow The notes of those lyrics are identical to the 19 notes from 0:03 until 0:18 To break it down further: There's a place in your heart - 0:03 - 0:07 And I know that it is love - 0:07 - 0:11 And this place could be much - 0:11 - 0:13 Brighter than tomorrow 0:13 - 0:18

Creo que es un guiñaso!!!

Mj himself in Moon Walker says jaws is One of his favorite movie....mj being a musician I think listens very carefull a movie music....maybe a took a Little suggestion from.....

I hear this everytime and when I look it up on the Internet I see so much debate about how this sounds nothing like Heal The World... Most people seem to think it doesn't... Hoooooowwwwww?!

WTF are you talking about? They sound nothing alike. When is it supposed to start?

Noticed this last weekend. Mind blown!

Totally! I tought i was the only one noticing this....

Identical sequence of 19 consecutive notes. Same song in my view. But there are more people passionately denying this than not. Either many tone-deaf people out there or maybe just MJ fans in denial. I am a fan too, and when I first heard "Heal the World", I couldn't put my finger on it but immediately sensed some familiarity. The "AHA" moment only came on viewing "Jaws" again after many years...
