Is the Miracle the 10th worst album cover of all time?

I've never liked it but judging by some of the other monstrosities on that website, I'd say it's not even in the top 750. Hilarious to read the Stepford Fans' responses to the vote: well done guys!

My personal favourite is this one: [url=http://www.zonicweb.net/badalbmcvrs/heino.jpg]http://www.zonicweb.net/badalbmcvrs/heino.jpg[/url]
Isn't he adorable!

Nice! I've done the translation on the latter cover:

"Freedom Matters"

"All big fat lies. I bring flowers"

"Wikileaks"

"Don't Forget to Hit the Tip Jar"

Ha! At first glance it looks like "I love my mother", which seems appropriate somehow. He probably has her buried in the cellar.

"FxxKER. What the fxxk is Queen's 'The Miracle' and 'A Kind Of Magic' sleeves up there for? All the other bands are one-hit wonders, or non-hit musicians... but Queen is big! Seems to me someone is homophobic." Jacob Britt

^Can't believe no-one commented on that!

Also, one that actually made me laugh out loud.

''My dear sir-- the only exemoron [sic] i see around here is the same face you see in the mirror when you shave your balls!?!?!''

^That's an interesting insight. ;-)

Plus, the 'Miracle' cover isn't as bad a David Fuller's version of it!

Can't be bothered to even check the link, the cover is fine for me, immediately recognisable.

What? The Miracle has an AMAZING cover, easily one of the best

They should have picked The Game instead, HORRIBLE album cover and the only bad album cover from Queen

"A flower bouquet that will never wither" & "A gift throughout the year" is what it actually says. Heino was later discovered to be an advanced scout for an alien albino race wanting to take over the earth, and vanished from the public eye. His home planet has replaced him with several hamsters and rabbits, easily recognisable by their white hair and red eyes. The takeover is not expected to happen anytime soon.

It is pretty bad, but again, it WAS the 80s.

I like The Works. The Game is just so bad in every way. No colour, quite a bad picture of the band, and then that grey border kind of thing.. ugh

I'll defend The Game.

Originally the cover was shiney silver, not grey and I think the photo was to show that this isn't the "Night At The Opera" Queen anymore. They growed up.

It also tied in with the Crazy Little Thing video that was really hot at the time.

I can't defend the Works though. Looks like a family Christmas card photo taken at Sears.
