I LOVE YOU CHRIS!!!!!!!

Maybe when you get closer to it, it will probably look more like her!?!

That's the first thing I thought of when I saw the cover-she looks like she did on the Dance cover. Women always want to look younger on their album covers. So what. I like this cover-very elegant.

ITA - and Stevie has had the same lighting.

I personally like the pic and I think we all should reserve comments until we see the actual booklet. It's a two inch pic, for cripes sake.

She looks fantastic and I can't wait to hear it!

I was thinking the same thing... once we get to see the full-sized CD cover, or, at the very least, a higher quality scan, it will probably look more like Christine.

But I do like the cover... and it kind of reminds me of Cher's 'Living Proof.'


The song titles are VERY intriguing... I hope we get to hear some snippets soon.

i think she looks gorgeous.

the woman is 60 years old - give her a break!

after all the embarrasing appearances Stevie has made over the years (remember those hideous outfits during the Other Side of The Mirror tour?) , you'd think we could all be a little forgiving for Chris. She's taken care of herself - she deserves to look however she wants - even if it involves a little blown out light, lots of make up and some chin-reducing photo shopping.

one of the dj's on KCRW mentioned this record and said it was "supposedly fantastic".

Oh, you're right, Joe. I have no problem with them wanting to look their best. It's just that in the pic, I don't recognize her, at all.

EEK - Let's hope its not directed at anyone in FM More likely, it is directed at Eddie Q. as no member of FM has done this severe of a thing to her. Rather, they have praised her, etc.

I'm definitely wondering if these songs are directed at Eddy Quintela.
"Bad Journey," "Calumny," "Easy Come, Easy Go," "Liar," "Sweet Revenge"... definitely could be songs one might write about an ex-spouse!

And when you look at the track-listing, this almost sounds like it could be a "themed" album... telling a story, chapter by chapter.

1. Anything Is Possible
2. You Are
3. Northern Star
4. Bad Journey
5. Friend
6. Calumny
7. So Sincere
8. Easy Come, Easy Go
9. Liar
10. Sweet Revenge
11. Forgiveness
12. Givin' It Back

Johnny Stew, you are always good for a laugh a day. The Cher cover is great!

I hope and hope and hope the songs are mostly sparse and the spotlight is on the piano, which I love from her. But, I am sure the entire thing will be great because she rarely does anything wrong IMO

Thanks, Johnny Stew. I've never in my life heard of that word. These titles look terrific. I'll bet they're directed at her ex-husband.

Airbrushing or not, it's a beautiful picture.

The song list? Sounds very snarky. I can't wait to hear Christine get bitchy.

Speaking of Dr. Plastic...the only time I've ever thought that about Christine was between "Time" and "The Dance". Look at the pictures from the "Time" album liners and then try to convince me otherwise. As much as I love and worship Christine, it's obvious she got a little touched up or just lost a lot of weight in those 2 years.
