ICONIC IMAGERY
Play something with a famous album cover.

Nirvana - Nevermind



Weird Al was so brave to do his version of this cover unedited. This was years before Death Grips went full peen. And even though John Lennon had gone there, by the time he did nobody wanted to see it anymore so it wasn't deemed pornographic like Al's, which was taken in his peek physical prime.

So I wanted to choose this one because it's a tiny bit subversive. Legendary band, in my view an iconic image...but the reason the image is iconic is from a song on an album that is after this one was released


Queen – Queen II
