#317 The Best Album of 1989, Round 2 Match #70: Prince vs. Chris Isaak

Best Album Brackets Logo #2.jpg

Hey folks!

First pic: It's the Batman logo as used in the 1989 film, an oval with a bat shape inside it. The bat is black, everything around it is gold and there are glints on it, as if made of metal. The logo is zoomed in a bit so it's cut off on the left and right edges. Second pic: A black and white photo of Chris Isaak, a stupidly hansome white man, in a white t-shirt and dark pants. He's sitting on a bed in a motel room, his hands outstretched, fingertips touching. Behind him on the right side of the picture is a sink and mirror and some bath towels. He has a pensive expression on his face. It's a heart-shaped world, Chris.
