"The Origin of Love" - the pieces of a puzzle

I really like this cover, even if it's only a sketch :thumb_yello:

It's not the first time he draws a Sun, he drawn it also in Louboutin's shoes! I like it! Maybe it's because he's working with Empire of the Sun :biggrin2:

 

Well,according to him,that is not a sun:

I don't know why, but I imagined the album cover will be totally different style this time. I don't know why I thought like that :doh:

 

Because he SAID he would be totally different from his previous album artwork. :naughty:

Apparently, there will be quite a lot of lions in his new album handbook. He included lions/suns in his doodles, but also in the Louboutin pair of shoes he signed for Yuls.

 

(I have to tell you that if he hadn't tweeted that, I would have thought that was a sun too:naughty:).

So thought that was the sun, too, especially since the drawing somehow reminds me of Empire of the Sun artwork / themes, particularly the walking figure in it.:teehee:

:doh: wait, just read that tweet. The figure is the "lion son boy beast baby" (:blink::lmfao:) and there is the sun in the picture as well.

So, everyone is right then :dunno:

 

Makes me wonder if he meant "lion sun boy beast baby"

 

 

He does have a history of typos :teehee:

Did anyone notice the ebay add description which referred to it being drawn on his personalised paper? That being the case did you notice that the initials were MPH and not MHP??

 

Just a thought....:wink2:

I'm a typesetter & i also design personalized letterheads for people. When a logo is made of their initials, very often they ask for the initial of the family name to be center

 

Mika could have come to me for those :sneaky2::naughty:

Mika's Album - Metropolis Studios

Tilted The Origin of Love, the Mika’s new album is said to combine elements of melodic classic pop that defined 70’s and 90’s. Mika has described his approach on the album to be more simplistic approach than his previous albums. However, this wasn’t reflected in the percussion order! Were we sent everything from Djun Djun’s, Conga's to our 4.3 Marimba.

I’m looking forward to hearing the final album and how our instruments contributed to his latest work.
