Must See: Stephen King’s Stranger Love Songs is brilliant

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

This just may be the coolest sh*t you see all day. Hell, all week possibly. Artist Butcher Billy has taken the titles of cheesy 80s songs and turned them into vintage, old-school covers for Stephen King books.

Not only that, but he turned a select few into VHS cover boxes as well. 

Butcher Billy on the art project: 

This series imagines an alternate universe in which some of the most hopeless, desperate and tragic heartbreak songs of the 70's and 80's were actually novels written by Stephen King. The concept is to look at the dark side of love through the lenses of pop culture, bringing twisted aspects of his classic stories to play with the original meanings of the songs – that can be completely subverted or strangely emphasized, while paying tribute to the vintage design of the original book covers.

The art project is called "Stephen King's Stranger Love Songs". You can peep all the book covers and VHS cover boxes below! Just make sure to let us know below which one is your favorite.

Enjoy!
