Question
what is the difference between the female cat standing on a multiple headed snake and the male cat strapped on the wheel with knifes being thrown at him?
also if you have an explicit version and you put in your computer will it list it as explicit or clean?
i ask these questions because i have a copy with the female cat and i just purchased one with the male cat which was listed as an explicit version. both CDs come up listed as clean on my computer.

Answer
The female cat cover was the original front cover of the "Nine Lives" album. Aerosmith decided to change the front cover of the "Nine Lives" album to the male cat cover. The female cat cover was a temporary cover because it included for a limited time only a bonus song (falling off).

It seems to me that if you bought the explicit version, that it would come up as "explicit" on your computer. However, it may be coming up as clean because the Cd itself is new. The album is old but the Cd itself is new. I hope that makes sense. I don't have too much knowledge with playing Cd's through the computer, but it may be your software that's changing the version. Anyway, hope this helps.
