Ok, they've changed it back now, but it looked like this.

According to livewire "You're still getting the corset. PE is a lenticular cover and this is the "other" picture when you tilt the CD."

much better

WOW. Cool. WHere is the Hologram? And why is 3121 all over the place?

It seems it is a different shot of the 'same' cover but the symbol is now displayed over the image of Prince and the earth (very faint in the background) - apparently it's a lenticular cover.

New cover sucks, I like the old one better!

the colour looks a lot like the cover of the emancipation album

i think i'd rather have the corset..

If I tilt my cd just right will "Mr. GoodNight" be replaced by "Best of You?"

Aww, that's tight. If it is a hologram/lenticular I'm gonna spend hours playing with it. I like either cover, but both?! awesome.

wont this be way too expensive packaging for the daily mail release..?

what's the difference btwn lenticular and a hologram?

I am sure the daily mail release will be something akin to the musicology giveaway.

Why is 3121 all over the back of the cd? so you think its going to have booklet with the cd?

Judging by the last few, I'd say it's gonna be an eco pack with a booklet. Hopefully there will be a place for the booklet.

Sly said:

Apparently not. I read (among the promo on the MoS site, I believe) where they said the album would have the same cover as the commercial version sold internationally.

looks the same to me

Yep...they've changed it back now.

livewire said:

what did it look like

Unsure whether there will be a booklet with the CD. It may be that the information to accompany the album will be accessible online instead.

As for 3121 being printed all over it, it has to be remembered that he seems to be using it as a 'brand' not unlike the use of New Power (Soul) was first mentioned on Lovesexy, and it then became New Power Generation on Graffiti Bridge followed by the band, record label, NPGOnline, NPGMC etc.

3121 seems to have been the song and the album, themed-parties, club residencies and the website. It also gets a fleeting mention on 'Mr Goodnight'.

It's also #47 now.

I think the colors are ugly.

I like that.

It does look like the Emancipation cover...I wonder why?

PE has moved up to #37 on Amazon.
