Pretty much the same way I felt when I saw it. Nothing special, but not bad.

Don't judge a CD by it's cover I suppose.

Bets on for the first poster to come on here and say "It's Amazing "...with the shock smiley as well.

It's awfully old fashioned but then I suppose Susan isn't exactly 'hip'. I was expecting something a little classier though.

It's AMAZING!

OK, I lied...

What did people expect; a red lipsticked, bikini clad Susan perching on a Ferrari, Photoshopped to within an inch of her life?? OK that image is slightly frightening...

I think it's a good cover for her, and I suppose it does exactly what it says on the tin

Its alright, will end up in the bargain bin in 2 months when everyone has forgot about her. It reminds me of a mrs mills record my nan used to get out. Im sure she looks like her.

It looks as if she is thinking "I don't know how I got here either"

I hope she sings this as good as she did in her first audition, but, with less of the shakiness. If this single sounds anything like her voice did in the final I'll not be buying it.

Edit: I actually think that cover looks just perfect to be honest. I don't think they should change ANYTHING with it. It looks just right. This would definitely grab my attention, even if, I wasn't going to buy the single.

I like the cover - I was just reading that Susan was at Celtic park tonight (in glasgow) cheering on her team and she was wearing a red anaorak and leopard-skin shirt or scarf, couldn't make out which.( http://entertainment.stv.tv/music/13...o-save-celtic/)

This fashion nightmare (even if it is for a football game) is exactly what I like about her - she is who she is and she isn't going to change that now just because the media's eyes are on her.

And I think her album cover conveys that down to earth nature i think she has.

She looks human at least; it's amazing what Photoshop is capable of.

I agree - the typography in particular is extremely dated, and doesnt sit well in the space...

I'd have preferred to see them use her signature perhaps, if they really couldnt think of anything else....personalise it with her own character.

(and the " default" gold frame round the edge looks like something straight out of one of the earliest versions of Quark-Xpress)

Im also really surprised they used an already published image ( ok, its a pretty one, she looks nice!) from the magazine photoshoot, and didnt commission ( or even bother thinking up) something original for the album.
