All Around the World - Lisa Stansfield (1989/1990)

open.spotify.com/track/0piPn2...
A black background and Lisa Stansfield pictured from her top up. She is also in black, so she bends into the background, as does her hair, which is also black. She is turned a bit to her right, and looking down. Her hair is either short or up, so you see a clear picture of her face and ear and neck, which is in a "V" shape, as the black outfit she is wearing has a "v" neck. She has two large red roses next to the "V" neck on our right side. Her arms are crossed, so her hands are standing out to us, as are her face, ear and neck. In a semi-circle over her head, it says in white font: "All around the world" in all lowercase font and "Lisa Stansfield" in white font, but all caps.

The Last Great American Dynasty - Taylor Swift (2020)

The RI house TS bought in 2013 was last owned by Rebekah Harkness, one of the wealthiest women in America. Thus tabloids were fascinated with her.

open.spotify.com/track/2Eeur2...
A picture of Rebekah Harkness, of whom the song was written about. Ger back is turned to the camera, with her head looking over her right shoulder. Her dress is low cut in the back and sleeveless, and she is wearing pearls. Since the picture is black and white, I don't know the colors of the dress, other than the top is dark, and the bottom it looks dark on the front and a lighter color on the back, with a ribbon on the back. The picture was taken a long time ago. Perhaps the '50's? So, she has short, curled dark hair. Since she was wealthy, she is standing in front of what looks to be an expensive desk with an armoire, with expensive candle sconces on the wall of either side of the armoire. Next to the sconce on the right looks to be an piece of art. A large picture of someplace outside. At first I thought it was an entrance to another room, but it's not. Below the picture, it says "The Last Great American Dynasty 2020" in black all caps lettering. At the very bottom to the left in smaller black all caps lettering, it says "Taylor Swift" "Folklore" "Republic Records"

To the top left, it says "Kenny Wayne Shepherd Band" "Ballad of a Thin Man" in yellow.
