AllBum.Art - Alternative Art-Work for Album and Single Covers

Firstly a note about apostrophes. Dexys Midnight Runners doesn't have one. This raises the question of whether the midnight runners belong to dexy, or whether dexys is an adjective of its own. Either way, the original single front cover artwork for Show Me doesn't really show anything. But don't fret, the remix resolves this as we find a babe who is showing you, and anyone else who'll watch what is not that well hidden behind her see-through dress. Don't!

What would you expect to find when looking at the front cover artwork for the single Flowers In December by Mazzy Star? Perhaps it would be a fuzzy, almost shriveled looking flower head, after all it is usually cold in December. Or would it be, as shown on the remix, two babes out and about in the snow wearing nothing other than fur coats. Maybe both are valid visions of flowers, maybe not. Floral!

Apparently, Frankie Goes To Hollywood are Watching The Wildlife. We know this because on the original single front cover artwork, there is a picture of a panda's eye with an inset picture of the panda's head. Though furry Panda's might still be wild in some parts of the world, it is not completely clear whether the one pictured is. On the remix is a babe who is standing in the wild, with an inset of her equally furry wildlife. The band may not have been watching this particular scene, but we think you would be, rather than the panda. Monochrome!

Let's take a look at what's going on here. The Super Furry Animals decided that the best artwork for the front cover of their album would be some bad passport photos of various 70s throwbacks. Maybe that is Fuzzy Logic to them, but not to us. Our logic also failed us which is why there are two remixes, making this a triple-play. On the first remix there is a babe whose logic is definitely furry and fuzzy. On the second remix a more mature babe is cupping her tits which, if she is trying to hide her embarrassment at being naked is silly as she is neither hiding her nipples nor covering her own fuzzy logic. Slamina!

It's nice, sometimes, to be able to bring you remixes of tracks where even the original artwork is rare. Today it's the turn of Musique and their single In The Bush. It appears there are several meanings of the word 'bush' and on the original cover it seems to mean 'piece of land in the middle of nowhere' (as in the Australian bush). On the remix the meaning has been changed to 'hairy female parts' and we find a babe who has, for some reason, let her bush grow and then put her clothes over it, in her bush so to speak. Outback!

Let's Ch-Check It Out with the Beastie Boys. And what do we find when we do this, well none other than a rat singing into a microphone. So let's remix this cl-classic and on the re-remix we find two babes and a guy. The guy is looking at the second of the babes. The first of the babes is undressing the second of the babes and asking the guy to check it out. It's clear what he is meant to be checking on, it's more of a pussy than a rat. Seventies!

What is Matumbi's Point Of View? A red jacket, yellow tie and black shirt on a hanger in front of a green curtain, that's what. Yes, some very obscure metaphorical analogies going on here because we assume that they have taken the point of view of someone who has no idea about how to produce covers for music. Then again, the remixed point of view may not be to everyone's taste, in fact it might be to very few people's taste unless those people happen to like looking up at hairy old women. Vertigo!

Whilst we are in the mood for a triple-play on a hairy theme, here's a remix for Untouched by The Veronicas. On the original single front cover artwork are nothing more than the band members in shorts and beefy boots. On the first remix we find two alternative babes, who are evidently untouched in the pantie department. On the second remix, is a similarly untouched babe, but being touched by another babe, so does that mean she is untouched or not. You can decide that. Barbery!

A triple-play from TLC and their song Unpretty. On the original cover you will see the three band members, who, as far as can be told, aren't specifically unpretty. On the first front artwork remix, is a scene that much more falls into the category of unpretty, or hairy, or hirsute, depending on your point of view. If you move your point of view about 3 feet further away, you would have the second remix, which surely few would argue doesn't qualify for unpretty with a gold star. Away!

Another triple-play from us here at AllBum.Art. Little Jimmy Osmond sings to us about his Long Haired Lover From Liverpool but, sadly, does not show us what she looks like. We have no idea either, but we have provided you with two options. Option 1 is a long haired babe who is clearly in the mood for lovin'. Option 2 is much the same it is just the location of her long hair that is different. Decide!
