Buddy Holly (song) - Cover Art

Cover Art

The original cover art for the single was an early photograph of Weezer frontman Rivers Cuomo with an unidentified female friend (shown at top of page). The cover art was soon changed, however, as the woman on the cover sued Weezer for usage of her photo without legal permission. The cover art was quickly changed to a childhood picture of Cuomo next to his younger brother Leaves Cuomo.

Famous quotes containing the words cover and/or art:

    Again we have here two distinctions that are no distinctions, but made to seem so by terms invented by I know not whom to cover ignorance, and blind the understanding of the reader: for it cannot be conceived that there is any liberty greater, than for a man to do what he will.
    Thomas Hobbes (1579–1688)

    Fine art, that exists for itself alone, is art in a final state of impotence. If nobody, including the artist, acknowledges art as a means of knowing the world, then art is relegated to a kind of rumpus room of the mind and the irresponsibility of the artist and the irrelevance of art to actual living becomes part and parcel of the practice of art.
    Angela Carter (1940–1992)
