I love the cover. I like how 2014 is such a different year. I'm sure this new album will be great.

I like the cover too. It's not the first time she is not using a live pic for the cover.

I don't think it suits the concert. It would be a great album or single cover, maybe even work as an arena tour DVD cover... but a CDL cover? Not so much...

The picture is beautiful but the text seems to be an afterthought.

I love the cover, but I think it is not fitting for a concert DVD...

The typography on this is horrible. The image is beautiful though.

I'm pretty sure it's a left over from the recent SCawaii shoot

I like the cover. I wonder why people find it weird when the pic is not live pictures from the concert. She/they are trying out of the ordinary and people complain... (though arena tour 2003-2004, concert tour 2000 wasn't live picture too)

I don't like CDL 13-14 picture.
I get your point, but for me there's a big difference between this years CDL cover
and this:



I like to have live pictures on a cover of a live performance DVD.
And this is how I like them:







And the other non-live covers?


(the concert is superb, the had a lot of amazing footage to pick from in my opinion and the cover is tacky)


Just logo and text, yay...


Does this count? CDL 06-07 didn't even get a cover, not even a prettier picture... :/


So I prefer live cover, thank you! cOUNTDOWN LIVE 20014 looks a lot like these pictures:







Following the same white-light concept. I find it boring. I though FTL/M-G-R single is adorable, but I'm over that theme now.

Omg, I LOVE THE COVER.
I don't understand the choice, I mean, we had that Lady-Gaga-style-fluo logo, with bright yellow highlighter hair, and leather jacket and diva sunglasses, so this doesn't make sense, expect for the fact that I LOVE IT.
I love this cover. She's amazing, the lights are great and stuff.
On a side note, I think this pic is slightly different from the "LOVEagain" era ones. This feels lighter and less artificial. It reminds me a lot of fairyland covers, but, like, the early morning version, lol.

A really beautiful pic.
But so random for a concert cover.
I'm all for a seperate photoshoot for a concert release, but at least something related to the concert. Though this is better than most of her covers just with some live pic(s).

I love the cover and this was totally unexpected....still it's strange because it's not related to the concert nor to its concept. I mean okay, AT2003-2004, 2000 tour and rock'n roll circus/next level tour didn't even a photo taken from the concert but still they were RELATED to it! it's straaange. But i like it very much. might actually be buying.

I like the photo but I don't think it is good for the CDL. CDL is in winter and I don't think a photo at the beach is ok. The CDL was not in Dubai to party on the beach in New Years Eve. ) I really like the photo but I totally dissagree with the cover.

I actually like this. It also fits the feel of things lately. Especially her last single release. Somehow I think it works well for this cdl

I hope her next album won't follow these light pale colors and white bed clothes style, we had Love songs, LOVE again, Feel the love, and this...
