Plus, that wig is so clearly...a bad wig...that it feels very not-Gaga. I just always thought the blonde cover was SO SO SO much more iconic and unique. The angular bob, the vinyl jacket, the dark/light aspect. Plus, it conveys the sound of the album much more. Like this cover LOOKS like Bad Romance, DITD, Monster, etc. It's superior imo. It's also her best cover, makes me mad that she didn't like it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LUO YI 6,089 Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 I prefer this one over the blonde one I want to get a physical copy but I haven’t searched The night sky tells all Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In most non-US markets, the covers are mixed, so one can have the standard edition with the blonde cover or the deluxe edition with the brunette cover.

The blonde one is for The Fame + TFM I've seen the blond one for both version of the album (with and without The Fame) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
River 117,262 Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 Were you a fan when it was released? This cover was shocking, it was like "wow omg, this is Gaga?" so vulnerable and not pop at all.. This cover is in the top for me. So sploosh your juice all over me you Riverboy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Temptation 11,209 Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 I prefer the photo her in the black wig but with a bird clawing her head and the wig completely covering her whole head including her face. I think that shot was used for the single cover for Monster. It’s such a sick homage to Hitchcock. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And not to forget that we havent seen her as a brunette before up till this day. Even most of her before TF footage was not or only a few of it released.

Dominic 11,922 Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 I think it is VERY Gaga. I always saw it as the dark side to The Fame album so that's why she has black and not blonde hair.

But my argument is if this is the "dark side of fame", where's the glamorous over-the-top decaying pop star tea? Like the blonde cover is serving DRAMA with that lewk, and the brunette is so...watered down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikolai Barrow 1,337 Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 It's her best cover i'd say. Like the blonde one too but not as much. The dark one has real soul. The only thing i don't like is her hair got caught on the right side and looks weird. Surpised it wasn't edited out But yeah i love all the covers she has done but it is definitely the most iconic one Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikolai Barrow 1,337 Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 Also didn't she say in an interview at the time "everyone wanted to see the real Stefani so i thought i'd show them" or something along those lines. Like the idea was stefani and gaga were the same and people weren't getting it because of the blonde hair Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TF was just a blonde Gaga with glasses, this is a dark Gaga with bleeding eyes. The hardest thing in this world is to live in it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
