The form has not changed but the environment, the dressings, the costumery has altered your perception of it&#8217;s meaning. To sing <em>This Is My Hand<\/em>,\u00a0a song about the embracing of one\u2019s own body, means something different in this time in history when there have been so many recent tragedies, where innocent people have had their lives taken from them in acts of violence and racism in both America and France. Today this is not only a song of self-embrace, but also one about the inherent right of all people to maintain freedom in their own bodies.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/My-Brightest-Diamond.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft  wp-image-13494\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/My-Brightest-Diamond.jpg?resize=229%2C229\" alt=\"My Brightest Diamond\" width=\"229\" height=\"229\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/My-Brightest-Diamond.jpg?resize=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/My-Brightest-Diamond.jpg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/My-Brightest-Diamond.jpg?resize=144%2C144&amp;ssl=1 144w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/My-Brightest-Diamond.jpg?w=900&amp;ssl=1 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 229px) 100vw, 229px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Track listing:<\/strong><br \/>\n1.
