No, she wrote "Hold Me" with Robbie Patton. It was written about Dennis Wilson. She hadn't even met Eddy Quintela at this time.

As far as I know, it was just Mick. But, I would think he'd know.

I'm still not quite sure how the video ties in with the song.

I'm not sure it does. The video is a paean to the Belgian surrealist Rene Magritte. Of course, it's not really the band's statement -- it's the director's. The band are just used as props in the director's & production designer's attempts to re-create the tableaux of various Magritte paintings.

In a strange way it seems to me it does. He basically separated all of them, and represented the different vibes in the band. More than a romantic request, it seems the director's "Hold me" was more mirroring their need to find common grounds.

I read that, yes. I wondered if there was some sort of connection to the song.... guess not.
