This time, let’s talk about the album artwork that has inspired urban legends, plus other hidden details and creepy coincidences. This video includes albums from The Eagles (Hotel California), Supertramp (Breakfast in America), Michael Jackson (Dangerous), The Who (Who Are You), Lynyrd Skynyrd (Street Survivors) and MORE!

    The band UFO 1975 album "Force It" had 2 mystery people on the cover making out. Only within the last several years it been confirmed who they are. Genesis P Orridge & Cosey Fanni Tutti of the influential 70's Industrial band Throbbing Gristle. Who had no relation to UFO, only to the photographer.

    Keith Moon was 32 when he died, but the man was young by number only. He was old beyond his years by 1978. He looked like he was at least 45 years old. His face literally changed a lot as the 70's wore on. That's the price he paid for the unfortunate choices that he made, though to his credit he was trying to finally address his problem in '78 but it was too late. There is a backstory about that "Who Are You" Album cover. Before the photo shoot began Moon had become rather disgusted with his weight gain that apparently showed regarding the outfit he was wearing, so he chose to sit backwards on that chair to hide his visible paunch.

    I read somewhere Pete Townshend explaining the Who's Next album cover as the band "pissing on our own obelisk" - the object is vaguely reminiscent of the obelisk in 2001, Townshend was referring to the Lifehouse concept album that they had failed to complete, which several of teh songs on Who's Next were salvaged from.

    There’s an album called images at twilight, by the band saga from 1979, that shows a post apocalyptic New York City with the world trade center damaged, and the Empire State building as well. Released in the same year as supertramps album 1979. Also, there is an alternative number of the beast. 616 some scholars argue that’s the older number.. It’s found in papyrus 115 and Codex Ephraemi Rescriptus. Both 666 and 616 add up to the Emperor Nero in gematria. The Romans and the early Christians thought he either didn’t die by suicide, or he would come back from the dead and retake Rome. You can read about it in the Nero redivivus legend. And finally the Anton LeVay one is funny. He was originally a carnival performer. And his daughter zeena looks like Taylor swift. This led to conspiracy theories that she’s a clone or something like that. They are both very beautiful. There are pictures online of them side-by-side. The resemblance is uncanny.

    I doubt the figure on the Eagles album is Anton LaVey, even though he was more of an opportunist than a spiritualist. There is another urban legend surrounding him, where he had a vision just before he died and said he was all wrong about his beliefs. He died from pulmonary edema, and was unable to speak when his time came.

    It all really depends on who was connected to the project and not necessarily Supertramp themselves. The kind of people who make world changing moves happen have a lot of influence in Hollywood and the music scene. A lot of past and current events have been foreshadowed all throughout our media. There are way too many "coincidences" at this point to just say it's all a stretch or fluke.

    If one is open to seeing something, a lot of strange stuff may be noticed in the works of art. Take for example the famous classic (at least, in the former USSR) novel "Mindswap" by American sci-fi writer Robert Sheckley. There the protagonist Marvin Flynn (in Russian transcription, Marvin Flinn) confronts the villain Ze Kraggash. The novel was written in 1965 and it may look like it somehow hinted at the current Russian war in Ukraine: some -in or even -inn fights against some Ze, and they even went to real war to death when both of them occurred in The Twisted World, world of absurdity and surrealism. 1965, 57 years till 2022... Certainly, the novel is not a model, nor a prediction for the result of the war, and Mr. Zelensky from Ukraine is not a villain. But still, the very concept is strangely the same.
