The song "Liberian Girl" by Michael Jackson is a tribute to a woman he had met from Liberia. In the song, he expresses his love for her and how she has changed his life. The first verse talks about how the woman has brought new love into his life, and how she has made him feel a love that is true. The second verse compares the woman to a precious pearl, emphasizing how valuable she is to him.
The chorus repeats the idea that she has changed his world, just like in the movies. The bridge expresses Jackson's desire for the day when they can get married and be together forever. The song ends with multiple repetitions of "I love you Liberian Girl" as he expresses his love and devotion to her.
One interesting fact about this song is that the woman it is written about is still unknown. Jackson never revealed her name, adding to the mystique of the song. Another fact is that the song was not released as a single in the United States, even though it was a hit in other parts of the world. Additionally, the music video for the song features cameos by multiple famous actresses, but none of them were credited in the video.
