Now I'm not gay or anything, but you've got to admit that cover is quite cool.

best...

Sign o the times (magnificent just like the album ) and lovesexy (really make you wonder what the music inside sounds like)


worst...

Graffiti Bridge (atrocious), Prince (almost funny) and Rave (no comment)

All in all i've got to say Prince makes really nice covers most of the time.

I agree with j'all on da bests, but when it comes to some bad ones, herr r mine:

- Graffiti Bridge (Only 1 person mentioned this - it's God-awful)!!!

- The Vault (barf)

...and all the other worsts that u guys said, save Chaos & disorder, ain't that bad..


Also, one of the bests has 2 b the not-holographic D&P cover with the blue tinted photo - awesome! (maybe this is UK only, I dunno)

best: dirty mind, and not for what you might think! it was cleverly done...and to think, wb wanted that pic in color initially! it wouldnt've worked if it were. the black & white is/was perfect. nod

worst: the vault. that cover looked as if it were slapped together in about 5 minutes. disbelief

from some of the testimonials that i've read here in the past, i don't think people are commenting on the way it looks, but they dislike the way it was made. a lotta folks were complainin that their n.e.w.s. cd covers were fallin apart, like they hadn't been glued together very well.

I've played N.E.W.S like twice and my case is already looking like some origami gone wrong. neutral
