Okay here's the idea I had, basically post pictures of the cd you are listening to, basically the cover of your CD so we can all see what music ya listening to at the moment, depending on how ya want to do it, you can go the easy way out and look for it on the web or you can scan it too, or take a picture too, whatever works so let's see what CD your listening to at the moment.

Here's what I'm listening to.

Why not stick to favourite album sleeves? I'd rather not have another "What are you listening to?" thread, but with loads of images

Off the top of my head, the cover for Anathema's a natural disaster is a bit of a favourite - the bleak, lonely image fits brilliantly with the music on the album - I tend to listen to the last two Anathema albums more in the winter than the rest of the year for some reason; it just fits!

Nice idea, but most of mine are total crap, other than OK Computer, which I quite like. Placebo tried a bit too hard with their covers. And SoaD's covers are OK, but they're nothing special.

I have re-allocated my vote to David Hasselhoff's Christmas album



Fo' shizzle.

Well we could have favourite and we could have listening to Beef, that's up to the users. Besides that cover I chose is not my fav anyway, not even close.

If I had to pick one of my collection it'd prob be

Ergh uh hmm... how about this one?

This topic is going to be hell on the modem users...


I think Beef is on the right track here. Only post your favourite CD cover, and try to keep the pictures a wee bit smaller than A Brave New World...

My two cents.

Obviously it'll have to be:

Edit: If it's supposed to be favourite covers, I prefer Bare Egil after all.

Just wait until I re-allocate my vote to David Hasselhoff's German Christmas Album (note : it probably isn't called this)

[A. J. Raffles]

What are you laughing at? Lillebjørn Nilsen is bloody brilliant - even though he's only marginally more photogenic than Bare Egil.

[PrejudiceSucks]

Fair enough, I suppose. Radiohead aren't particuarly photogenic either, really, but then that's part of their appeal.

Ah. See, I was doing favourite album covers, but we now seem to be on "covers of favourite albums," which is the same as the Favourite Albums topic, surely?

[Tom Henrik]

Very true, Beef. Very true

*goes to edit the Marving Gaye one*

[BeefontheBone]

Hey, Marillion. I love those guys, they're so gloriously terrible
The covers are all pretty similar in many ways, with that jester/fool, a window and a load of objects. Misplaced Childhood is a bit of a departure - all that stuff only gets to be on the back
I had a physics teacher when I was doing my A levels who was a big Marillion fan (and also a fan of laser discs for some reason) - funnily enough, I remember that more clearly than the physics he taught me
