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

Tinchy Stryder (is that even a real name) is Featuring Melanie Fiona and together they are going to Let It Rain. This is clear from the original single front cover artwork, because, well, it's purple. On the remix, it is much clearer as we find a babe standing underneath her umbrella which is a shade of Stryder Purple (as we shall now call it). It's good job she is carrying her umbrella as if it is let to rain she would otherwise get very wet. Forest!

What is High Enough for the Damn Yankees? If the original single front cover artwork is our spirit guide, what is high enough is just to repeat the words 'high enough' several times. The remix shows a babe who is waling around in a pair of boots whose heels are high enough for anyone, in fact they are so high, she has had to duck down to avoid hitting her head on the metal structure that is above her. She should be careful not to trip. Down!

It might seem straightforward to you and me, but clearly to Beyoncé, counting to 4 seems to have eluded her. On the original album front cover artwork there is unquestionably just 1, even if you count those aspects of Ms Knowles' body that there are 2 of, it doesn't make 4. On the remix there are, let's count together, 1, 2, 3, 4 babes. Cuatro. Vier. Четыре. Apat. Of course, it would be wrong to expect Ms Knowles to know 4 in Russian, but surely she can count in English. Erbgħa!

Light A Candle (To Start A New Dawn), is what Daniel O'Donnell is instructing people to do. To help us envisage this, Mr O'Donnell stands around on the original front cover artwork in a white suit and black shirt with his hands in his pockets. Maybe he has a lighter in his pockets. On the remix we find a babe who appears to have lit a number of candles. She also doesn't have pockets, so she can be hiding lighters in them. In fact she has no clothes to hide anything in. Wick!

Poor Kelly Clarkson. It's not clear who has put her in this situation but she feels that My Life Would Suck Without You. She seems to have made herself feel better by getting a heart-shaped lollipop that she can no doubt suck on, in place of whoever it was that she sucked before. On the remix are two babes, one of who is sucking on the other. Without her, her life would suck less, though if the sucking is her favorite activity, then maybe less sucking would make her life suck more. Converse!

Do you think we're alone now? Tiffany does when she sings I Think We're Alone Now. On the original single front cover artwork Ms Darwish is, without question, alone now, or so we think. On the remix, a babe is not alone, but the dude standing in front of her has probably suggested that they are alone. The babe, on the other hand, looks slightly alarmed at the prospect of being alone with the dude. That said, her sexy clothes suggest she is not unused to being alone with various dudes. Solitude!

Imagine precipitation. Now imagine Wendy Moten is inviting you to Come In Out Of The Rain, which, according to the original single front cover artwork, means sitting down with her and her multicolored jacket. On the remix is a babe who needs to come in out of the rain as she is standing outside in the precipitation by a beach. She is lucky enough to have an umbrella to keep her dry, but she has nothing else to keep her dry. She really should come in out of the rain before she catches a cold. Transparent!

Hold Me Now, hold you now, hold me before, hold you again, none of this helps when the original single front cover artwork by The Thomson Twinsjust shows the three band members not touching, let alone holding, anyone or anything. And they clearly are not twins either. On the remix, two twins (or is that one set of twins?) are standing next to each other, holding each other. Is it now, before or again? Then or thereafter? Does it matter when the twins are wearing nothing but their high heel sandals? Ukraine!

The original single front cover artwork for Escape by Enrique Iglesias shows almost exactly what you would expect to see, which is a picture of Mr Iglesias himself. No sign of anything escaping, other than his ego. On the remix we find a babe in high heels and a head-scarf who appears to have escaped from a jail cell. How she has managed to escape is not that clear, though you can't help thinking that she may have had some assistance as her prison door is unlocked. Run!

Nothing says Dirty as well as the picture of the knitted child's toy that Sonic Youth display on the original single front cover artwork. On the remix we find a babe who appears to have white paint thrown all over her. It has made a real mess, and she might have quite a difficult job washing it off. You could join the queue of people who are willing to help her get clean. That is, from the dirty state she finds herself in to begin with. Loofah!
