We play some of my stuff and we play some Beatle covers.
First of all there was a guy named Charles Nicholas, who used to do all of the inking that Jack and Simon didn’t do. Simon used to do splashes and covers, but Charles Nicholas, after a while, did the inside of all of the stuff.
The world of Manhattan is small and tightly knit, and the man on top retains a certain humility. He knows how far and fast he can fall by looking at the guy across the street. The view from the $250,000 apartment covers a lot of ground, most of it condemned.
When I was in Baltimore, I played in several different bands, doing four sets a night, two sets of originals, two sets of covers, that kind of thing.
The uniform makes for brotherhood, since when universally adopted it covers up all differences of class and country.
I don’t think I have a sense of fashion. But I do have an aesthetic, which I feel is an offshoot of me working in the design industry. For example, if I am mixing and matching prints on my sofas and cushion covers, I tend to do that with my wardrobe as well.
It’s always flattering when someone covers a song. I mean, when you’re a young band, and you’re unsigned – to think that someday people would want to cover one of your songs – it’s just mind-blowing.
I always sang Leona Lewis covers, and if you know her songs, she’s not just singing your average easy song; she’s going off the majority of the time.
The only advantage of the CD is that you have a booklet that can tell a bit of a story, but the little covers are just boring. I love vinyl, and I have loads of it. It’s the same thing as digital photography versus film photography. It’s a quality thing.
There was no way to lock down, or tighten up, or Fail-Safe into Security Theater a race that covers 26.2 miles, a race that travels from town to town, a race that travels past people’s houses. There was no way to garrison the Boston Marathon. Now there will be.
I love to sing, and I’ve recorded a few covers and originals with friends, but I haven’t written any songs.
My attitude with covers is, make it your own or else leave it alone.
Morality covers our conduct, not what goes on inside our heads.
‘Iceman’ covers a bigger scope than ‘Long Day’s Journey.’ But they’re both fabulous pieces of work. ‘Iceman’ is like a symphony. It’s got all the movements, all these different voices. ‘Long Day’s Journey’ is more like a beautiful string quartet.
Mentalist is the technical term for what I do and it covers everything from psychic medium through Uri Geller, through to magicians doing tricks with a mental theme.
Me and my family used to have a Christian covers band together… like rock Christian music, upbeat, all in Indonesian. The band was called Roasted Peanuts.

I always do my own makeup, hair, and styling, including in videos and on, like, album covers.
So basically my, my foundation does this thing called gap coverage for, you know, students that apply for our scholarship program. What it means, it’s not like quote, unquote ‘full scholarship.’ They apply for financial aid and, and FAFSA and things like that. Then whatever’s not covered, my foundation covers.
Every newspaper in the country covers stories that other newspapers cover. Every industry is filled with people who are competing to do the best job providing a particular service.
I think that when I was younger and had my first round of big success and was plastered on magazine covers in the early and mid-’90s, I was kind of outspoken and had kind of a pretty aggressive attitude in my life.
Stolen scrap like manhole covers, railroad weights, stop signs, guard rails, and public lighting put our residents in grave danger. Not only that, but the theft is tearing apart communities with stolen church and cemetery ornaments.
The first band I was ever in, I played guitar. We did Gary Glitter and Green Day covers at the time. We were called Fizz. I have no idea why we picked that. We were, like, 12 years old.
I was the kind of reader in smudged pink harlequin glasses sitting on the cool, dusty floor of the Arrandale public library, standing at the edge of the playground, having broken a tooth in dodge ball, and lying under my covers with a flashlight.
The thing about doing mashups and covers is it’s great, but a part of you never gets to really showcase what your original sound is like or what your writing voice is like.
Naps are the key to relieving stress. When you are working on two hours of sleep, the fact that cheese comes on something when you ordered it with no cheese is enough to send you crying under the covers for an hour.
Nobody considers a covers record an album.
Any item of clothing that covers the face and makes it impossible to identify individuals is open to abuse.
I did about 2000 covers altogether, for all sorts of books – from Shakespeare to James Bond – and I always had the idea that I must give 100%, no matter who the author was.
I remember when I was about 12, I read M. R. James’ ‘Ghost Stories Of An Antiquary’ under the covers, way too young to fully understand what was going on with those stories – completely terrified but absolutely loved them.
You promote your films; it’s part of your job. You do the magazine covers and stuff, and then I try to live a really normal life. I definitely don’t try to make it into any more craziness than it is.
I came up in a time when Springsteen, the Stones, Dylan, and the Beatles were still dominant. For every magazine cover with a new band, there were five covers with one of those guys.
And this one I wanted to do some covers. So I just really sang some of my favorite songs.
‘Twisted’ is similar to ‘Pretty Little Liars’ in that it’s about trying to find out who did it, but it’s more about the human relationships between characters and the strain that things can put on them. It’s also a little bit of a social commentary piece, because it covers very timely issues.
I’ve always been charmed by houses, and descriptions of them are prominent in my novels. So prominent, in fact, that my editor once pointed out to me that all of my early novels had houses on the covers.
I’m happy that I don’t have to do covers anymore, because that’s not what I do.
One of the reasons that DC, Marvel, and other comic book companies have always asked me to do covers and variant covers is because they know that when they tell me ‘icon,’ I jump over their words, and I give them an iconic cover – but while I’m doing it, there is going to be an idea there.
I think too many comic book covers are way too busy, crammed with far too much information, both visual and verbal, that just becomes a dull noise.
I went from a guy, kind of a working actor, a supporting player, to magazine covers and being offered the studio pictures really quickly. Nobody was comfortable with it. I wasn’t really comfortable with it.
You are ruled by change whether you like it or not, and io9’s future path lies with joining a larger site that covers technology as well as science and science fiction.
You do a deal – business deal, real estate deal, stock deal – protect yourself at all times. I got that from boxing. That’s from A to Z: that covers everything in life. And it started when I heard it in the ring. They don’t say that in basketball or football or any other sport that I know of but boxing.
Within two months I made the grand slam: covers of ‘American Vogue’, ‘Italian Vogue’, ‘British Vogue’, and ‘French Vogue’.
I hate people who splash their own pain on covers, like the whole world should hear about them. Why are we all supposed to be interested in one individual’s suffering?
‘The Tin Drum’ is one of my favourite books of all time – I’ve probably got 12 or 15 copies with different covers, different translations – but it’s also just about my favourite film.
There haven’t been many credible electronic covers records.
I never pushed the envelope of wanting people to know me, or be on the covers of magazines. I just want to enjoy what I’m doing.
Some of my favourite record and album covers and stuff have all been the singer, and they create a character, and they dress up a little bit.
Wells Fargo’s internal review only covers unauthorized accounts dating back to 2011. News reports and court documents suggest these problems might have existed long before then. The 2013 ‘Los Angeles Times’ articles led to the L.A. city attorney’s office investigation into Wells Fargo’s sales practices.
I thought I knew who Alan Turing was. I’ve always loved history, and I was actually shocked by how little I actually knew. I was amazed this wasn’t common knowledge. Why wasn’t he on the front covers of my history books? He’s one of the great thinkers of the last century, and he was sort of pushed into the shadows.
I went to a seminar early in my career on the craft of storytelling by Robert McKee. It was really life altering. There are basic principles on how to craft an engaging story and he covers them well. He’s got a book out, ‘Story,’ that I would highly recommend to anyone interested in improve their storytelling.
