Just wow.
These new leaked ones are just... Michael is so beautiful. Not only that, but his sadness is expressed so gloriously, it tears the heart apart because it looks so contained, yet it transmits so much. Him before that red curtain is pure dream... and the one where he is surrounded by stars, by the universe, sends this feeling of protection. The pictures look calculated, artistic, profound, simple and rich... Magic...
This makes me shed a tear, with the lump in the throat I already have.. I don't even know whether of sadness or euphoria or both... But the pictures are so fresh and polished, without being too manufactured, exposing true artistry with a soul, not lifeless. I don't feel the coldness anymore, for they have such a strong sweet scent to them, that you can sense he's close. Here... Like they've been just made. The coldness, actually, can be still felt to a point, by means of the accentuated make-up... But for the black colors he is clothed in, that looks okay... He looks as the clown trying hard to hide his emotions by means of paint. He is staring straight into the heart of the viewer, though. In a way slowly pleading with him for.. mercy, or better understanding. His pain and loneliness are so beautifully exposed. It's silent and peaceful and floating in there. He is concealing out of insecurity and slight fear, with caution behind a protective blanket of stars, yet the windows of his eyes - not too intrusive, not too mysterious - expose his inner territory accurately.
He just feels like he's here...
The pictures are timeless and share this 'here-and-now' texture..
