Song from the album "Ask Questions Later", Interscope Records, 1993.

What's the design got to do with the song or it's meaning? Great song by the way.

Great song. GORGEOUS illustration!

Hi squee.
Association... fine subject for a debate. Not here.
If you don't find meaning... maybe next time (scoop!): "Nobody can find you're nowhere".

Hey I'm not trying to start a debate team I just don't see what a sharding tape player has to do with "everybody loves you when you're dead."

Either one by themselves is fine but slapping the two together with scant rhyme or reason just doesn't float my boat. Now to go spend my Ten Dollar Bill.

tops for this one!

Hi squee.
Do you Know John Cage? Was a great composer, my favourite.
This was him: "...every technical rule comes neglected in order to leave space to an expression that transforms every accidental sound in music and where the shape and the interpretation come left to the chance and the freedom of the interpreter... author only limits itself to prescribe to the executor various behaviors legacies to as many states of mind, without minimally to care of the sonorous result".
Change sound/sonorous in graphic, change music in composition and you will NOT have solution.
This is not "EverybodyLovesYou" occurence, but that's all.
"10$ Bill" is one of the "top ten" songs of the century, after "4',33''".

Yeah I've heard that John Cage quote before. I appreciate the interpretation of a piece of music/soundscape is as much dictated by the listeners environment/experience but surely the role of a designer is to express their personal solution/interpretation in a manner which connects with others no matter what their differing situation?
Closed and Insular design communicates nothing. It is just masturbation. Nothing wrong with that but where is the connection with your audience.

If you could maybe explain the connection between your image and the song that perhaps I would understand it better.
Like I've said I like the source material (the song) and the aesthetic of your design... I just can't make the connection.

If Tomorrow Never Comes is my favourites. Nice drums.

Audience? I don't care audience. This is not a "communication project".
This is expression. If people estabilish feeling I'm happy. If they don't like method/meaning... they'll give it a zero. Who cares?

Cage was only a kind of answer. One of the many. Probably the wrong one. Cage is one way to wisdom.
Dispense truth is not my job.

About your first question (What's the design got to do with the song or it's meaning?).
The answer is: Nothing.

It's a wrap folks. Nice yakking with ya.

What's all this dibate about? Shouldn't everybody find itsown meaning? I like the old tape now gone and replaced by fancy CD players...PRINT IT PLEASEEEEEEEEEEE!!!! (Small sizes for girls are very apreciate)

Squee. It's hard to understand your slang.
Now I use mine: L'hai avuta vinta, sei grande, hai scoperto il mio bluff, c'è bisogno di gente come te!
Qui a threadless e nella vita. Dovremo chiamarti con un'altro nome, però: Dio.

nice, i like this a lot man.

Well "God" is a little over the top...but thanks anyway ;)

i can't see the word/text/font clearly!

Much <3
