Double vision: Ricky sent out a link to the risque video - My Skin Talks - to his followers on TwitterThe soft focus video features a minimalist soundtrack, and jerky camera work, which acts a metaphor for Ricky's reawakening.
The singer is seen slumbering on a white lit floor, as the camera pans over his body.
It sees him naked in various positions, with tattoo-like effects emerging on his skin with inspirational messages in Spanish such as 'find yourself', 'forgive' and 'change your life'. And slowly his body restarts jerkily coming to life.

In his tweet he told fans the 2-minute video, called My Skin Talks, was directed by his friend Dago Gonzales.
The pop heart-throb ended years of speculation about his sexuality when he announced that he was gay.
Martin, who had always dodged questions about his sexuality, told fans the birth of his surrogate twin sons in August 2008 and writing his memoirs made him decide to come out.

The Puerto Rican star admitted 'fear and insecurity' made him keep quiet about his sexuality but told of his 'happiness' at finally revealing who he is.
Martin, 38, posted: 'To keep living as I did up until today would be to indirectly diminish the glow that my kids where [sic] born with.'
The singer began his career with boy band Menudo and broke out as a solo artist and teen idol in the 1990s in Spanish-speaking countries.
He released his first, English-language album in 1999, the self-titled Ricky Martin, which saw two major hits, Livin' La Vida Loca and She's All I Ever Had.
Since then, Martin has been a star in both North America and South America.
Jarrett Barrios, the president of the U.S.-based Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD), welcomed what he called Martin's 'openness and honesty'.
