I see, a well trimmed up Prince with his eyes closed facing a wall of orange. The wall is painted like a beautiful sunrise. He stands at the wall, that could assume two meanings, but the one I am going with is that as of the wall where jews pray on in the holy land. However, his hand sudgests a feeling around for an opening as if he wants to get through the wall. As a photographer I enjoy this image. The contrast is briliant and the lighting beautiful. I agree with you a beautiful picture I to appreciate art work/photography my mom did photography so I got to see alot of cool pictures and I once dated a artist who did beautiful paintings. The first thing I notice was how well his hair is trimed,looks sharp, this is very tastefully done. | |

you know..velvet-esque. It appears to be that iron-on felt you find in craft stores...which in an odd way makes me love this cover even more. Prince shops at Michael's, whodathunkit! 
Meanwhile... Backstage at the NAACP Awards: Stage manager: "Prince, 10 minutes." Prince: "Damn, I still got two numbers to cut out!" Peace, David Dig if you will this picture...because I don't know what it's really called, but to me it looks like Prince was "stationed" over in Japan or the Phillipines and he came back with a jacket that's like one you'd wear to train in karate...especially the way 3121 is stitched on. I like it!  I'm firmly planted in denial | |

i don't know if it's been mentioned but what i like about the cover is how different it is to previous covers. prince never had his back be the focus of the cover before. plus his profile is just stunning. [Edited 2/18/06 19:10pm] I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that | |

I think so too  I could go on and on about it, but then I might be pinned as long winded.News: Prince pulls his head out his ass in the last moment.
Bad News: Prince wasted too much quality time doing so. You have those internalized issues because you want to, you like to, stop. | |

This does appear to be the cover as listed at Amazon.com. Says it's a digipak. I've gone to find myself. If I should return before I get back, keep me here. | |

Aerogram said: He's in silhouette, looking at his shadow, facing a wall.
He's touching his shadow. The only skin he shows is on his ear, neck and hand. The shadow is lighter on the wall than on himself. The wall is all shades of orange and yellow He sports the number 3121 at the back of his coat. This appears to be an image with no fonts. [Edited 2/17/06 16:08pm] Hmm….yes, yes, I think you’ve started something here. The “Te Amo Corazon” video had the same motif of light and shadow. Perhaps this all hints at coming to grips with one’s true nature, allowing more light in and as a result ending up with a more authentic reflection of self. With his ear lit up and his hand completing this reflective connection, maybe this is his way of saying, “Listen to the peace I’ve made within.” With back to camera this beats the hell out of the obnoxious antithesis that is “Rave’s” fluorescent blue body suit, matching-hair ribbons and boasts of “Produced by Prince”. -- And the importance of album artwork is going no where, only taking a brief respite during these early days of non-tangible music media adoption. The new iPods display the album artwork while the music is playing. And the visual aspect of enjoying music in this way is only going to improve with time and technology. --- [Edited 2/17/06 23:43pm] | |

WOW !!!! Finally found the end of this...Interesting comments...I agree with Willie Wonka and some of the others the frontal view of Prince's Face is Very Sexy, Hot and A "PERFECT" album cover....Instead of the 3121 Back view...But there's an old saying that says "Don't judge a book by it's cover"...We R all buying the album 4 the songs inside..Not the cover..
Don't sweat ( Black Sweat ) the same Sh.....!!!!! | |

HalluRain said: This does appear to be the cover as listed at Amazon.com. Says it's a digipak. So when we open this digipak, will we be confronted with the other side of this image? The front side. (That would put the viewer on the other side of that wall. That would be pretty cool.) If not, is the front on the back? Is it on one of those pull out things? Is it on the spline? Is there a front somewhere!?!
It's not for me or anything, I just think that if there's no front, some of these people here will complain and stuff. Why do you like playing around with my narrow scope of reality? - Stupify | |

I'm not feeling the amateurish fonts on the poster, but the enigmatic CD cover ROCKS! Ὅσον ζῇς φαίνου

And I'm so glad he didn't give us yet another one of those Mariah Carey "look at my beautiful face" poses. Ὅσον ζῇς φαίνου

I think that the cover almost has a spirital meaning to him like want the comfort of the wall although in my experience walls don't give much comfort Don't mess with the best coz the best don't mess | |

Okay, don't mean to sound like a smartarse, but the cover has a pretty obvious meaning. What do you see? Prince's back. Say it slowly. Prince is back. Tah-daah.

He looks like a teenage boy.
I haven't read through the whole thread, but is 3121 an applique on his jacket or is he wearing a plain jacket with 3121 added with photo editing software? The spacing of 3121 seems to be off. ughh...I don't like it at all. | |
