Scorpions former lead guitarist Uli Jon Roth notes that he has since expressed regret over the original album cover:”the demon of our time, the less compassionate side of the societies we live in today — brutally trampling upon the heart and soul of innocence.”


Scorpions rhythm guitarist Rudolf Schenker: “Even the girl, when we met her fifteen years later, had no problem with the cover. Growing up in Europe, sexuality, of course not with children, was very normal. The lyrics really say it all. Time is the virgin killer. A kid comes into the world very naive, they lose that naiveness and then go into this life losing all of this getting into trouble. That was the basic idea about all of it.”

EG/Myself: Through the years of seeing this album in stores I always thought of it as a well-done design. A cover I never looked at sexually but as a work of art, and truthfully said, better then the music itself that was tucked within.

Should the Internet be policed for everything labeled under perversion and pedophilia, and if so who should be doing the labeling?
