The heart as a symbol would just fit for me to this song. When I hear this song I think of Michael's "I Have This Dream" - when he encourages people to hold each other's hands."I would like all of you now to take the hand of the person to the left and to the right of you. Go ahead. Right now, I mean it. Don't be shy. Do it, because it starts now. ... Now tell the person next to you that you care for them, tell them that you LOVE them. Tell them that you LOVE them! This is what makes the difference. Together we can make a change to the world, together we can help to stop racism, together we can help to stop prejudice, we can help the world live without fear, it is our only hope. Without hope we are lost. Thank you all!"HEART symbolises LOVE, this is why I think it's possible that the form of the hands shows a heart for us, telling that LOVE is the most important thing.You can listen to Michael's speech here:You are not allowed to view links.

when i clicked on the thread and saw the cry vid picture immediately i got a flash of the the shot of kenny and the others in a circle holding hands with their heads bowed.
looking4truth, I just read your post, and realized that we basically think the same. We just brought up different examples Sorry that I read it only after writing mine...
Quote from: "Serenitys_Dream"I am going to disagree with you on this. I love the song and that picture is of a man on the left holding the hand of a woman on the right.The bodies are shaped differently, the body on the right has muscles...masculine looking and the arm on the right is more slender, the hand appears smaller and more feminine, look at the wrist. All only IMO of course.[attachment=0:dye816hv]HMH.jpg[/attachment:dye816hv]I agree with you that the the hands are not two men. I also don't think their was homosexual innuendo in the song. So i disagree with that part of the OP's post. However, the strange happenings surrounding the release of this album scream hoax. The album and the songs on it are a message.I feel that when people get this album, if they get this album, they will be surprised by what they get.

by RK » Wed Nov 17, 2010 11:20 am This has to be strategic to the hoax. It seems Mike is throwing these things in the world's face. Where it can't be ignored. I'd say our boy is understandably really pissed off. It reminds me of Is It Scary. where he saysI'm gonna be exactly what you wanna seeIt's you whose haunting me Your warning meTo be the stranger in your lifeAm I amusing you or just confusing youAm I the beast you visualize.And if you wanna see eccentrialities I'll be grotesque before your eyesLet them all materialize.But if you came to see the truth and purityIt's here inside a lonely heartSo let the performance start......As far as HMH goes, I love it. Nice song....but the controversy is on purpose....hoax purpose. I don't understand how it all will unfold, but I intend to keep watching the performance of the greatest show on earth.

by looking4truth » Wed Nov 17, 2010 9:21 pm I am not going to say I totally disagree with bec because I did think of the homosexual overtones but I thought of that when I heard the demo. I figured that is not what they meant obviously but I did think of it. I just laughed it off and enjoyed the song. However, I'm actually surprise, no one didn't think that this could simply be a continuation of Michael's last single and video from Invincible--Cry. Throughout the video, there are people of different backgrounds, races, cultures, holding hands. It is also interesting that Michael is NOT in this video. It seems to be a prelude to this adventure we are on now. I think the message of Cry and Hold My Hand is similar and goes along with this adventure of L.O.V.E. and truth. I think the homosexual overtones could just be a coincidence? It's not there with Cry so I would say it could be just be our interpretations getting in the way of the important message or maybe you guys are onto something...what exactly...not sure. The video for Cry is below.
by truthprevails » Wed Nov 17, 2010 6:09 pm Another thought: MJ was someone who wanted to break barriers and walls of all kinds. He promoted equality through his songs and everything else he did in life... He took on the issue of color, race, and nationality. What if now he's taking on the issue of gay-ness, trying to send out a message that "it don't matter if you're straight or gay"? There was a recent incident in the U.S. where a gay boy (college student) ended up committing suicide... Remember that Michael was sensitive to people's pain and sometimes wrote songs inspired by real stories of real people (Bad, Gone Too Soon)? Maybe this is just another example of that. Now I know HMH was written in 2007 or so, but maybe the cover was created recently and is ambiguous on purpose... And maybe it IS about gay-ness. (I don't know, of course. This is a possible theory.)
