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

According to this 1981 single from German electronic popsters Kraftwerk, "She's a model and she's looking good". At least that is how the opening line of their single The Model goes. But just who is this model, and why is she looking so good? The original cover offers no insight unless the model in question is a model of computer (which it could have been). The remixed cover shows a suitable model, looking good. I'd like to take her home, that's understood...

Not the first remix for Madonna (in fact the third so far). Ms Ciccone's 1990 single Hanky Panky is perfectly poised for a remix what with it very explicitly mentioning a little 'spanky'. And so Ms Ciccone's visage has been explicitly replaced by a perfectly poised maid, ready to be spanked by her master. Is the girl a cantankerous yank? Frankly, it doesn't matter. Swanky!

What do you imagine when you think of Norway? Is it snow covered pine forests? Reindeer? Whale fishing? Well think again. Think 'ring-ding-ding-ding-dingeringading' and you're getting warmer (global warming no doubt). Norwegian comedy due Ylvis have brought the sound of The Fox (What Does The Fox Say?) to the hot 100 and in return we at AllBum.Art have remixed the cover of their single to show a more foxy fox! Fair exchange is no robbery.

The original cover for the 1990s single Stupid Girl by Garbage deserves to go where the band's name suggests, in the trash can. Has there ever been a less interesting cover for a single whose title holds out so much promise? Probably not. So the AllBum.Art team has remixed it to show what the song is talking about - a stupid girl. Why is she stupid? She is naked except for some snake-skin boots and she has a snake around her neck. It it just us, or is that not a recipe designed to make the snake angry? How stupid can you be?

Another submission from a fan of the site (if 'fan' and 'this site' aren't inherently contradictory). This comes from Alan Morris from Manchester in the UK. Alan says,

Goody Two Shoes is a song that has always held a special meaning for me. I met my first love when this was playing at a disco and she had the most amazingly sexy legs and shoes. So a remix to remind me of those days seemed necessary. But don't tell the wife!

OK Alan, we won't say a word!

Another cover art remix prompted by a picture rather than by the song. What could be more normal than a woman standing at a Bus Stop with her panties around her ankles? Where on earth did these pinup artists get their ideas. Regardless, it's a good chance for a remix of a golden oldie, in this case a song from The Hollies whose original cover was OK but has no bus stop in it, natch.

Despite not being a big hit in the charts, Somebody Else's Guy by Jocelyn Brown is one of those songs you just can't help bobbing along to. The remix of the cover is just simply pulling open the blinds of the original cover to reveal the girl behind. With the blinds open we can see that she is rather hot, though her temperature will no doubt be lowered by the sparsity of clothing that she's wearing.

Whip It by Devo is one of those songs that will probably be played forever more at discos and parties across the nation. Why? Because the idea of 'whipping it good' provides an image that most party-goers would see as being the next steps to a successful night after the party has ended. But unlike the original cover for the single, it isn't standing around a globe of the world that they have in mind, but more like the remixed version no doubt!

Just a simple update of this classic 1980s rock track from ZZ Top. The original cover does a pretty good job of identifying the kind of legs that the Top boys are singing about. But that was nearly 30 years ago. Today, skirts are shorter and heels are higher and the remixed cover does a good job of reflecting today's more extreme leg related situation, together with a bit of cleavage for that truly 2010s feel. Oh, and we've done away with the whole stupid car thing as well. Eliminator: what were they thinking of?

Does Your Chewing Gum Lose Its Flavour (On The Bedpost Overnight)? Does My Chewing Gum Lose Its Flavour (On The Bedpost Overnight)? Does Anyone's Chewing Gum Lose Its Flavour (On The Bedpost Overnight)? Maybe Lonnie Donegan knows the answer, or maybe the babe on the remix knows the answer. She seems to be conducting some kind of experiment in which chewing gum and bedposts have become intertwined. Science!
