This would fit my description of an over-produced cover.

It would have probably helped if they had stood in front of a real building, and not a photograph of one.

I don't think this cover can be helped at all.

Cool timing, though - I was going past this building about half an hour ago.

You mean, "hey sexy young lady, come backstage after the show and try to knock my sun glasses off".

Frankly I was more disturbed by the title, because it took a while to realise it said "lips".  It looked like "tips".  The girl with orange tips would rank as a pretty bizarre title.

This question might belong more to Cato's Grammar Grumble than here, but here it is nevertheless: why are you, guys, that disturbed by anything? I mean, one can be disturbed by a sudden unpleasant noise when reading in the quiet late at night, or by the entrance of the chamber maid when making love to a gorgeosu babe in a hotel room --- but being disturbed by a title, or CD cover? What am I missing?

Perhaps it's just a question of usage.  At any rate, Webster's lists "breaking or destroying tranquility or composure" as one of the meanings of "disturb", even though the sense of interrupting something is the word's primary meaning.

Even so, I can't imagine anyone losing their sleep because of a CD cover, or a CD title.  ;D

Now that's a cover I've always liked a lot - tranquil and mysterious at the same time.

I have no problem with the cover.

Not only that, but it is a very good recital recording; wonderfully paced and collecting some great songs from a nice variety of composers.

Indeed, thanks to this thread and then seeing the tracklisting/reading reviews on Amazon, I'm quite interested!
