I think the cover art really got me prepared and excited. I love how someone is "drawing" him

That is certainly a beautiful cover. This could wind up being a favorite. I just now noticed the little hand with the pen on the left.. cute.

The link mentions a U.S. release date on the 22nd... that's the first i've heard for us. Hope it's not a mistake.

Thanks for that link.

Now that I can see a HQ version of that cartoon, I like that his hair is highlighted purple, but I don't like that his eyes are not brown. His eyes should have been colored light brown. Still an awesome drawing though, and it captures him almost perfectly. It's the most eye-catching album cover he's had in a long time, in my opinion. I think it will garner a lot of attention in stores, even if the music is not popular.

He should have someone make him a real-life version of that outfit the toon is wearing. Then he could wear it onstage, and look like the drawing. Man, that would be hot. lol

Yeah both artists are a bit unsophisticated.

The artist for the Prince cover looks to be pretty young and seems to put a lot of effort into his work so I'm sure his artwork will be a lot stronger in the year to come. The one above just screams armature schtick. Was it by Bowie himself?

Anybody notice that "Compassion" and "Future Soul Song" were in the "Cause And Effect" lyrics?

Yeah, unlike the illustration of Prince, that doesn't look like Bowie's face to me. This depiction is more abstract than the one for "20Ten." Similar concept though hmmm, which is what I think Alguy was implying.

Yep. He may have decided to leave it off of the final album cut because so many people trashed it and bitched about it online. Who knows?
