Album Covers that confuse you? :/

What the HELL is going on with Motley Crue Dr. Feelgood album cover? A Snake, wings, a creepy head. It confuses the crap out of me. I get the snake is wrapped like a medical symbol, but it really is a confusing looking album cover.. :/

Dr. Feelgood album cover.

Pretty sure we've had variations of this question before. This is one of the first albums that comes to mind for me (a good album too, mind you):

There's also this one (not so good of an album):

Pretty simple really. It's the medical symbol known as the Rod of Asclepius, with batwings added and a skull on top. Obviously a comment on medical insurance and American healthcare. Or something.

I love Dr. Feelgood.

Here's some useless trivia. There was a local brewery that named their beer after famous albums. They had a chocolate porter called Thriller. Their IPA was called Dr. Feelgood. The governing body over alcohol and licensing made the brewery change the name of their IPA. Apparently, someone claimed that the name of the beer implied that it had medicinal properties. The beer is now called Snake Oil IPA.

I personally prefer Samuel L Jackson's take on it: "It'll getcha drunk!".

I am watching and listening to Miss You by The Rolling Stones on YouTube and the picture in the video is the Some Girls Album Cover. I thought,"These Girls look really weird." It then hit me that these "Girls," are actually all Mick Jagger! LMAO!

Edit. Looked up Some Girls Album Cover and NONE of these Girls are Mick Jagger. The majority of them are actual girls(well, women,) but for some odd reason, George Harrison is one of the "Girls," George is a MAN, not a girl or a Woman.

Some Girls Album Cover.

Edit again. According to Wikipedia, Mick Jagger IS one of the "girls," on the Some Girls Album Cover, along with other Rolling Stones Members(Rolling Stones are all Men, none of them girls or women)Confusing indeed.

Nah you're wrong. Everyone knows George was a Beatle.
