I love the cover painting and think it suits a lot of the songs' ideas pretty well, the three Lindsey-sung songs especially always reminded me a little of a Fitzgerald character out on an extravagant "exotic" (for lack of a better word) vacation. It's vivid and brooding the way "Big Love", "Caroline" and the title track are meant to be. Christine's songs written with Lindsey have a same dark thread too. It's a beautiful image and I feel it fits what the album was trying to be (as much as it could be any one cohesive thing, given how it came together).
