The Cover og 'Say You Will'

[The Nisse]

Read: The cover OF 'Say You Will'..

I'm sure I've read somewhere that it has a special meaning or background story. But I've completely forgotten it. Can anybody help...?

[Sahara]

I don't know, I've never heard of any...

All I know is that I like it and that those trousers look damn good on Lindsey.

It's modeled after some japanese movie, their positions. I forgot why. I'm sure David will come along soon to help us answer that question.

Someone very astutely noticed that it looks like a copy of the cover for this film, and was probably a play on words referring to the whole conflict about whether to make SYW a double or single album, due to sales concerns.

Wow. Good find there.

Love the cover- probably my favourite (Lindsey looks freakin sexy!) but Stevie is so touched up, she doesn't look like herself

Thanks, but I'm just reposting... I'm not sure who made the initial discovery.

At first I thought they were the band members', but then I realized none of them had neatly manicured French tips . It's actually a stock photo by someone named Keith Carter: http://creative.gettyimages.com/sour...RoyaltyFree=on

Thank you...that is very interesting. Even the typing looks the same..

I've wondered what message they were trying to send about the cover as well. That picture bears a remarkable resemblance to their cover.

That's fascinating. And no, Stevie doesn't look like herself. Yes, Lindsey looks damn good.

I think Stevie looks more herself on the SYW cover than the Dance cover. Her face, close up, on the Dance cover looks like a man or something.

foxyluva...who's the girl on the left in your signature? She's hot..

Just to add my opinion.. I think both the TITN and SYW covers are great, I think maybe I've looked at them so many times that I can't imagine them any different..

Frankly, the Say You Will cover sucks. I much prefer the simpler Limited Edition CD version of Say You Will album. The photo cover makes them look dead and not a great image to put out there regardless of the Double Suicide connection (although interesting).

I have to admit, I seem to prefer all the album covers that do not feature the band in them.

Oooh I totally disagree. SYW cover just has a classic look. Their best album cover since Mirage I think.

Best cover since Mirage? No way. Tango In The Night is a hot cover. Lush and depicts the music to be found inside.

I even prefer the Behind The Mask and Time covers over Say You Will.

John McVie even hated the cover where they were "floating." Which is either Say You Will or The Dance. I vote the former since they really do not appear to be floating on The Dance cover. But maybe.
