those ears
and that old school Vivienne Westwood hobo make up
just wonderful

very sensual...beautiful and erotic.. a nice change of mood....

The different sized pupils...very Bowie-esque.

Let's hope the media don't think Sylvian has followed Pete Burns down the plastic surgery route.

Not a fan of the cover, but at least it's interesting.

Would you like it if it was David naked, Paul? I know some of us would and by some I mean Neonico...

I have to admit it isn't the type of cover I was anticipating.
David naked? Oh pur-lease - that is just wrong on so many levels! No no and no!!!

I think the cover is beautiful and I'm pleased that most of the music has been remixed in some way. Looking forward to hearing Five Lines especially

This sums my thoughts pretty well.

[Blemished]

Oh dear...I think that cover is horrible...quite embarrassing really...one of his rare lapses of taste

Lokking forward to five lines...but there's not much else to get excited by...and think the nine horses stuff is misplaced

If he's in the mood for releasing past material I would love to hear the Manafon sessions instead. Now that would be more like it.

Embarrassing? In what way?

[Blemished]

Embarrassing? In what way?

Embarrassing in the sense that I think it's meant to look moody and artistic but (IMHO) fails laughably.

Maybe it's meant to mean something about desire and darkness, but I just see a naked girl with a towel on her head and two little pointy ears like an arty version of Marilyn Manson.

This is all entirely subjective of course - it sounds like you love it - and each to their own. I've loved every Samadhi Sound cover up until now.

It reminds me of the "Pop Song" cover. My wife tried to buy that years ago and the clerk thought she brought it to the counter to complain about it. "You mean you want it? Really"

Art is art is art is art.

[Chet]

I guess we need to see the entire booklet to understand the cover image.
and yes, sure brings back some Pop Song thoughts, and I did like that cover, more than the song,
and this cover is even better, and interesting, and, as always, a well choosen typography...

[baht habit]

I would have thought that was the cover to the re-issue of Little Girls With 99 Lives.
