I'd say it's because you're attributing an emotional state to the earth.

A cry for help? presumably because of the nasty human infestation?

From the fine article:

"Whenever you have aurora, you get AKR," said Robert Mutel, a
University of Iowa researcher involved in the work.

The knowledge could also be used by Earth's astronomers to detect
planets around other stars, if they can build a new radio
telescope big enough for the search. They could also learn more
about Jupiter and Saturn by studying AKR, which should emit from
the auroral activity on those worlds, too.

Perhaps it's just the planets talking amongst themselves? or are there
hidden human populations on Jupiter and Saturn?

Just so long as they're not on Europa, it's all good.

If you listen closely, AKR is remixed ABBA, Cream, and early Cure. It's
hard to recognize because NASA has no rhythm and completely screwed up the
bass line. What this says about our planet is hard to say, but at least
it's not Elliot Smith, which would indicate profound malaise.

Thank $DIETY that I wasn't drinking anything hot when I was reading that.
