Fun fact... this was actually the original cover:

Gaga was hesitant to do the motorcycle idea, but Starlight convinced her to do it. 

I should have guessed that Starlight's messy ass was behind the cover. Dammit. This would have been flawless

Never liked the original album cover, in my eyes the BTW cover represents the concept much more effectively. The horns, free flowing hair, Gaga showing skin/tattoos & the vulnerable pose just convey the message better in my eyes.

Any source to back up your statement?

Yes. 

 

I understand that she was going for Diamond Dogs but I just don't think it worked as well as it did on that album. Bowie's cover was freaky-looking and semi-disturbing, and BTW standard just looked too cheaply photoshopped and kind of comical. It's interesting because the horns under the skin pic was closer to the odd surreality of Diamond Dogs than the motorcycle artwork.

No. It's great as the BTW single cover, just as the actual standard album cover is also great in its place.

Yeah. The owner of Propagaga who knows a LOT.

I know who he is. He may know a lot but what he said certainly wasn't true. Gaga stuck to the original concept for each album cover besides ARTPOP.

How do you know this? And what was the original ARTPOP concept?

It was originally a photo from the computer chip headpiece set from Inez & Vinoodh's ARTPOP photo shoot (original album shoot, later put down over Jeff Koons' shoot).

 

I know it because my friend asked Jacob Roanhaus (creator of the headpiece) about working with Gaga. He was told by Interscope executives that his design would be on the album cover.
