That's also my idea! But I saw a few years ago on a tatoo-website (shame on me, I totally forgot this website :oops:) a very cool picture of someone with the "Oxygene" skull on his back... 8) :wink:

I quite like the simplicity of the Sessions 2000 cover. :)

I very much like the work of Michel Granger, also his none Jarre works, very surrealistic. Jarre Live was a disaster same as Odyssey through O2, sessions 2000, Best of (girl with self, my god...), HongKong and Destination Docklands (although this one is much better that Jarre Live).

Revolutions is simple but a very good picture. The original cover for Houston/Lyon is great but Cities in concert (extended version of Houston/Lyon) is terrible.

Favourites are; Oxygene, China Concerts, Rendez-Vous, Chronologie, Oxygene 7-13, Jarremix, Metamorphoses.
Why did they change the cover for the Moscow DVD, I liked the original video cover very much, it really had the sovjet style. I mean I like the picture for the DVD but the red video cover was so much better.

Equinoxe is my favourite, now isn't that a surprise?! I specially started to like it when they re-did the artwork and started to make the eye yellow. Everytime I see the figures projected on the big screens during the concerts they just hypnotise me...

Yes i like it too because of the Rothko style painting, if anyone is interested, check out Mark Rothko specifically or "colourfield painting" as the art style on the net.

Dunno why, but I like Jarremix as well! In my opinion Jarre Live and Odyssey Trough O² have the worst artwork...

Both artworks were created by Michel Granger, and like Jean Michel wanted the music to be a next chapter to the original Oxygene, Granger designed a cover that continues the idea behind Oxygene: in the first one the human (skull) is inside the earth, and in the second it's the other way round: the earth is inside the human being. And they lived happily ever after :D (It was a story after all :mrgreen:)
Not so fast GeeJee.

Granger never designed a cover for JMJ, JMJ however did use some of his paintings on some of his albums, there's a difference IMO. The painting used for oxygene 7-13 was made in 1996 for example (i've seen the back of the original painting and it clearly said 1996. I don't remember the exact date however, but it was februari/march-ish.)
