Title: Which Be Not Nobody cover?
Post by: rosieposy87 on April 08, 2003, 08:40:09 am
Well, i'm not sure many people remember that there are in fact two BnN covers, personally i prefer the first one, which do you like best?

The Original:

Wow, I had no idea there was an alternative cover. Interesting stuff.

I like the original. It's more surreal and weird (for want of a better word), like Vanessa and like most of the music inside :)

I gotta go with the original. I think its more her own style and design. The one we have now took her design and cleaned it up for commercial release. But I like the original.

As much as i lovethe present cover, definitely the Original...i love it, it's no where near as comercial, and it's so retro and surrealist. i think it beats the present cover hands down unfortunately.

I personally think the new cover should have smaller text (such that "Vanessa Carlton" fits between the edges of the artwork that the "V" and "on" covers up, and "Be not Nobody" is in smaller letters, and the cover art should be 12 inches across instead of 5½.

Yes, but wouldn't you agree that she's been cleaned up a bit too. Wouldn't you agree that Be not Nobody was released and not Rinse because Rinse is more her style (darker). The idea of "divide and conquer" too dark so we have "ordinary day". I do like the original more though.

she said something about something we were discussing i guess kinda about the cover - about how she loves art nuvous - (spell check aisle 4) and thats what her cover art is all about ----

i love it too!!!

i thougt that was cool i have some art nuvous pieces around my house!

I was refering to the original cover, not the Rinse album which has no cover.
