The one with the hand with rings on fingers, the rings chained together and the whole hand covering the face. This cover has more to read into it. Chains = binding, rings = encircling, hand over face = hidden, face peeking thru fingers = showing glimpse to the world.<br />Summary = I'll show you enough, but don't bind me.<br />http://www.google.co.nz/imgres?imgurl=http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-IlNdsVcFVLQ/Txs35lFhHII/AAAAAAAAAFU/uHg-oJRwUPk/s1600/Adam%2BLambert%2BUK%2BFor%2BYour%2BEntertainment.jpg&imgrefurl=http://reviews-and-info.blogspot.com/2012/01/adam-lambert-for-your-entertainment.html&h=500&w=500&sz=53&tbnid=RG3J_euFi9jszM:&tbnh=95&tbnw=95&zoom=1&usg=__Xsey4WBc2zg81mGBY97eSKD8KsU=&docid=wCVog2eK1YIbrM&sa=X&ei=WOJuUqS9AsiwkgXt-IHoCQ&ved=0CE0Q9QEwBQgypsy queenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14464534455444145383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7838167612732796487.post-64660415603747602482009-11-02T19:42:43.590+00:002009-11-02T19:42:43.590+00:00I think the correct lyric is "soft and sweet&...I think the correct lyric is "soft and sweet", not "awfully sweet".Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7838167612732796487.post-73056109248463207822009-10-29T18:07:31.981+00:002009-10-29T18:07:31.981+00:00Lynn, yes, I agree that it's not a very well e...Lynn, yes, I agree that it's not a very well executed and a bizarre choice for the cover. But I think the tweet about 'getting it' was a little patronising. For me it's not a case of understanding it or not but a simple matter of taste.<br /><br />For some people the title of the album evoked images of old-fashioned crooners. But seeing the album has changed all that. Some may think that the album cover is naff but I think opinions may be swayed after hearing the music.<br /><br />I'm trying to keep an open mind until I have the whole album and can put everything into context. The music or lyrics might contain self-ridiculing snark, something really kitsch and tongue-in-cheek which would give us that 'Eureka!' moment and it would all make sense. Then the irony of the cover would become obvious and our appreciation of it would change. That's what I'm hoping for anyway!<br /><br />k65535, I'm so excited about the music - we're nearly there now!Mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01563024315492738747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7838167612732796487.post-58234796726720273552009-10-29T06:38:57.890+00:002009-10-29T06:38:57.890+00:00Adam Bombed, looking at the nicely splitted versio...Adam Bombed, looking at the nicely splitted version posted on IDF, yes it is intentional. But I think the splitted version may be done by more than a fan. The timing of the leak and the accuracy of the split, given there is an overlapping between the two pictures, are too perfect somehow.<br /><br />Sidetrack, Adam had leaked more song titles out yesterday. There is one call Broken Open (:D) and one called SOAKED. While people were all excited about who the song writer was, surprise, there is a leak on a demo.<br />Here comes the DEMO version of SOAKED written by MUSE:<br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ONkTCzxF_xM&K(*Glitter*)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15789491739672124090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7838167612732796487.post-89846432563078292032009-10-29T02:36:02.490+00:002009-10-29T02:36:02.490+00:00Adam bombed; I was expecting something sexy and fl...Adam bombed; I was expecting something sexy and flirty - not a "Lisa Frank" design. It's photo-shopped to death. His shoulder looks out of proportion with head. The feathered blue hair looks like a wig. His face shows no expression. Even the title doesn't fit the photo. It's all too bizarre, confusing and Xanadu-esque. I want Adam as a human with flesh and bones, not an alien. <br /><br />This is my first Adam disappointment...I think he is trying way too hard to get a reaction and not letting his voice/music do the impressing. Instead, it looks like unicorns, fairies, and martians will be sauntering into the background at any moment. This photo is a sterotype of the glam-rock days and I believe this could set set himself up to become a parody. He hasn't yet performed enough in the glam-rock genre to take a chance on a cover like this....maybe in a year or two. <br /><br />Having said all this, I (of course!) still love Adam. I look forward to the songs. But this cover is not the Adam I want in my CD holder!!!<br /><br />Sorry. I am happy though that people can appreciate it. I guess I am one of those who just doesn't get it.luchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06421560829159318367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7838167612732796487.post-83950616070175566962009-10-28T23:17:52.277+00:002009-10-28T23:17:52.277+00:00Lynn, what a strong reaction you have! What do yo...Lynn, what a strong reaction you have! What do you specifically dislike about it? Is it the way Adam looks? The style of the design? Feel free to elaborate some more!<br /><br />AD, it's definitely other-worldly and so different to the results of any photo shoot we've seen so far that it came as quite a surprise.<br /><br />k65535, Thanks for bringing over that observation. I wonder if it was intentional or whether it's us fans over-analysing. I agree that it's very memorable and would stand out on a shelf. Like you, it reminds me of Bowie but I think its effect is the same as that which Adam described in a <a href="http://www.dailymotion.com/swf/k4FHugiAxaz0UA11hw5" rel="nofollow">confessional</a> of seeing Bowie's Diamond Dogs album cover for the first time and being drawn to it.<br /><br />Nicole, yes the cover makes me even more intrigued about the music. I'd been considering a revamp for a while as all the photos are quite old.Mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01563024315492738747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7838167612732796487.post-16203794944471434742009-10-28T08:33:25.155+00:002009-10-28T08:33:25.155+00:00Adam Bombed - Oh God he went with androgyny - I am...Adam Bombed - Oh God he went with androgyny - I am beside myself now waiting for this glittery man/woman to sing to us.

It reminds me of David Bowie. <br />As an artwork, the cover is beautiful. It is magnetic, powerful and memorable. As someone pointing out in IDF, if you view the cover diagonally, you will see that the pink side is more feminine while the blue side is more masculine. It is unique and something people easily grow to like. <br />As something representing Adam Lambert, I think Adam deserve more credit than that.<br /><br />I guess people nowadays are so drawn into perfection. Things are altered and erased as they are not good enough. Even if this is how it's done in Hollywood, I still wish to see more Adam in every photos of his, cover or not cover. Because, he is just beautiful the way he is. Thanks Adam Bombed for the post.<br />~k65535K(*Glitter*)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15789491739672124090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7838167612732796487.post-53888187410387594342009-10-28T03:41:16.597+00:002009-10-28T03:41:16.597+00:00Love it!
