Well I gata say my least fav cover of them all has got to be Timespace.

Enchanted_Stevi 09-04-2008 01:42 PM

I said "The Divine" I love the picture but its boring

Johnny Stew 09-04-2008 01:46 PM

I chose 'The Divine.'

It's just a black & white picture on a cheaply produced import-only release, which Stevie probably doesn't even know about and I never bothered to buy.

Steviefan49 09-04-2008 01:46 PM

Great thread Caitlin!!! These are always fun!:p

Stevie album covers are a sore subject with me. I think most of them are terrible. Herbert Worthington's photography is mostly to blame.

I absolutely detest the "Divine" cover almost as much as I hate what they did to her face on the cover of Rock a Little. The photo on OSOTM is just awkward. The choice of artwork and font - as well as the placement - on TISL makes no sense. It's hard to read. Enchanted should have utilized one of the dreamy Stevie photos from Neal Preston's beach shoot, not a giant feather.

I have to go with The Wild Heart as my favorite solely based on the photo on the far right.

SmileAtYou 09-04-2008 02:21 PM

I have to say Rock a Little. The back of the album is much more beautiful than the cover!

i agree, except i think you're supposed to vote for your LEAST favorite ;)

i'm voting for enchanted, because it's a stupid feather. i guess any pic is better than none. and i LOVE the divine cover. that pic is hot. :blob2:

Villavic 09-04-2008 02:32 PM

I even didn't know there was a Divine album...

AliceLover 09-04-2008 03:27 PM

Enchanted....shes not even there.

BTFLCHLD 09-04-2008 03:58 PM

CV a photograph of stevie as she is NOW would have been nice...

I know. What is even up with that?? It doesn't even have anything to do with Stevie.

You know in the Sorcerer video they use ink, black ink, writing and it creates a FANTASTIC effect. With Enchanted, if they wanted to use some kind of feather quill image to depict Stevie's writings, they could have been a lot more creative.

I picked Enchanted as well.....I do love her sig on the cover but I don't like it that there is NO photo of her. Why didn't they use the 'Blue Lamp' photo like they did for the inside booklet as the 'front' cover photo than? Or what someone else said that beach photo shot from the BD era would've been nice or just some outtake that we've like not ever seen.....
My next one would've been Shangri-la cover....its her 'back' it should be her front not back of her...IMO.....it could've been much better...
The next one would be SA....with the outtakes we've seen....I think there were much better photos not that its aweful or anything......just much better choices that is......:confused:

I know what you're saying, but weighing everything, I think that was an interesting choice. I think I like having it from the back, but I wouldn't want them to make a habit of doing that. I find the singularity of it appealing.

I dont count the "Divine" as an album really. So I picked TimeSpace. I think because it really dates that release. I guess all of them do, in some way. I'm not a fan of the Other Side of the Mirror cover, or Street Angel either. But, it's just an album cover...

vivfox 09-04-2008 08:17 PM

My least favorite is the stupid quill pen on the cover of Enchanted. Perfect wasted oppurtunity to give us a beautiful unseen shot.

omigodstevie 09-04-2008 08:19 PM

Least favorite is DEFINITELY Other Side of the Mirror.
I don't know what she was thinking, but I think that dress is awful, and the hair is all wrong, and the make up is clownish, and ugh. I'm just not a fan.

(cause its awful) technicolor brown hair, grandmas drapes as hood, sad face, goofy faunt):distress:

Musicman408 09-06-2008 09:54 AM

Cool idea Caitlin. I voted for The Divine. I bought it a long time ago, before I owned OSOTM, and so it was used for my OSOTM fix. Then when I finally got OSOTM, I never listened to it again.

baboles 09-06-2008 02:37 PM

Stevie looks so uncomfortable on the cover of OSOTM. It looks like she is struggling to hold herself up.

camchristo 09-14-2008 12:51 PM

I got in on this too late. So, I thought I would post my opinion on my favorites, from favorite, to least favorite:

Bella Donna
OSOTM (I don't care what any of you say, I love it. I love the whole 80's excessive fantasy of it.)
Rock a Little
Wild Heart
TISL
Crystal Visions
Timespace
Street Angel
The Divine (although I don't really consider this a real album)
Enchanted
