[TubbsFarquhar]

It’s quarter after one and I’m a little drunk and I need you now

Well, given that Lewis Capaldi and Ronan Keating's When You Say Nothing At All are previous winners, and Enrique's Hero is a runner-up, it's not surprising that one did well.

I always thought it was the back end of a car buried in the sand, a while back someone told me it's meant to be a rocket motorbike or something.

"Gary and I traveled around gettng all the pieces to put it together. We went to a junkyard in Santa Ana to get the tail fin and fender from a 1959 Cadillac, complete with taillights... We picked up the bad polyester yellow jacket and white pants at a sleazy men's shop... Finally we grabbed a local LA paper to use as a prop. It had this amazing headline: SEN. BUCKLEY CALLS FOR NIXON TO RESIGN... That was the creative process at work. We lived for that, Gary and I, and we still do.

Some of my favourite album covers:

Rüfüs Du Sol - Bloom (2016)

The artist is Jack Vanzet


Rüfüs Du Sol - Inhale/Exhale (2024)

Flight Facilities - Forever (2021)

Friendly Fires - Pala (2011)

The macaw photograph was from a collection called 'Perroquet' by Norwegian photographer Sølve Sundsbø.
Looks like he's also responsible for the picture Coldplay used for their excellent album A Rush Of Blood To The Head (2002):




Death Cab For Cutie - Transatlanticism (2003)

Above & Beyond - Tri-State (2006)

Chaartaar - Jaddeh Miraghsad (2015)

Midnight Juggernauts - Dystopia (2007)

I like simplicity and colour, quite clearly hahaha.... If I think of any other cool ones later I'll share them.
