Sorry for the sort of non-sequitur, but I was, er, meditating on the Rolling Stone cover early this morning and it occurred to me that really, that's not a snake. That's a serpent. The Serpent. It's some serious Garden of Eden-style coiled around the Tree of Life shit.
So, in the creation myth/literal truth of God, the serpent tempts eve to eat forbidden fruit from the tree. Here we have the serpent coiled around Adam's thigh. Eden, indeed.
Apples, Ladies and Gents? Cause this picture is making me want to commit some highly original sins, Genesis style.
So I wonder if this composition was intentional, and I am just extremely slow on the uptake, or if it was more like "Yeah, snakes are cool! Rock and Roll!"
Takes? Genesis-inspired fan art? *loling at the idea of reading the bible to make sexy Adam Lambert fan art*
