Hi there. I may be imagining this, but before TISL was released, I thought I saw a pic of what the album cover was suppose to be on a website. I think that website was like Queen of Rock, or something like that? It was a website that used to have lots of video clips to watch and such. And I could have swore they posted a pic of what the TISL cover was going to be, before it was released. And it was the pic of Stevie sitting down (the pic of her on the promo posters) rather than the pic of her, showing her back, as she is walking away from us.
But here's the thing - I could have swore it showed it in full color (not that gold tint like it is on the promo posters). And I could have swore it showed more of the background of the arch and the water, and was a little less "close up" on her face and body than the pic of her sitting in the promo poster is.
I may be remembering incorrectly, but when I saw it, I had described it to a friend of mine on the phone who did not have a computer, and lives out of state so couldn't come look at it on my computer. I remember telling him it so reminded me of Bella Donna. And eventhe demo song, Blue Water. I thought it was completely and totally beautiful, and the perfect picture for the cover of TISL. I desribed the mirrored look to the floor she is sitting on, or whatever, and also the big arch above her, and the ocean beyond. It was awesome. I still think that would have been an excellent pic for the cover, and then the pic she used on the actual front cover would have been totally excellent for use on the back cover of it. But that's just me and my wishful thinking.
Anyways, what I am wondering is if anyone else remembers seeing that (it was later changed on that website when the real TISL came out, with the actual pic that *was* used for the front cover). But Iwonder if that person kept the original picture. Or if anyone here saved it? I didn't have a printer at the time, and did not know about how to save a pic/image on a computer at that time. So damn, I don't have it. But I LOVED it. Or -am I nuts, and dreamed the whole thing. But no, I could not have, because it was that pic used in the promo posters. That promo poster just got edited, and they cropped out most of the background and did it more close up, and they tinted it gold-ish.
If anyone remembers this, or even if they have a copy of that pic, can you please let me know? It's been driving me crazy.
Thanks!!!
