Damien Hirst unveils shocking £50m diamond-studded skull

they are 8,601 of the most perfect diamonds money can buy. And as befits an artist obsessed by death, Damien Hirst has set them in an 18th century skull. Despite the £50 million price tag, potential buyers are already registering interest in purchasing the work entitled For The Love Of God.

The rest of us must queue for a free ticket to view it at the White Cube gallery in Mayfair and absorb the dazzle of the biggest jewellery commission in Britain in a century.

Unveiled yesterday, Hirst, 41, said he had been inspired by Mayan and Inca skulls. “What was the maximum you could do as a celebration against death,” he said. “The most I could do was if I covered a perfect skull with perfect diamonds.” With his dealer Jay Jopling splitting the £12 million cost of the raw materials, Hirst began buying flawless, ethically-sourced diamonds for the project.

It is the highlight of Beyond Belief, one of the biggest exhibition of Hirst’s work ever held in London. You cannot miss Hirst’s second piece of art that is as weird and as odd as the first one. ‘Love’s Paradox’, cows in a formaldehyde solution are on display at the White Cube Gallery in London. agencies

i need to get over this beatles thing

Help, I need somebody,
Help, not just anybody,
Help, you know I need someone, help.

When I was younger, so much younger than today,
I never needed anybody's help in any way.
But now these days are gone, I'm not so self assured,
Now I find I've changed my mind and opened up the doors.

Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
And I do appreciate you being round.
Help me, get my feet back on the ground,
Won't you please, please help me?

And now my life has changed in oh so many ways,
My independence seems to vanish in the haze.
But every now and then I feel so insecure,
I know that I just need you like I've never done before.

Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
And I do appreciate you being round.
Help me, get my feet back on the ground,
Won't you please, please help me.

When I was younger, so much younger than today,

And I do appreciate you being round.
Help me, get my feet back on the ground,
Won't you please, please help me, help me, help me, oh.

dear ms.soberman this is for you (winkwink)
Candle light and soul forever
A dream of you and me together
Say you believe it, say you believe it

Free your mind from doubt and danger
Be for real don't be a stranger
We can achieve it, we can achieve it

Come a little bit closer baby, get it on, get it on
'Cause tonight is the night when two become one

[Chorus:]
I need some love like I never needed love before
(Wanna make love to ya baby)
I had a little love, now I'm back for more
(Wanna make love to ya baby)
Set your spirit free, it's the only way to be

Silly games that you were playing
Empty words we both were saying
Let's work it out boy, let's work it out boy

Any deal that we endeavour
Boys and girls are good together
Take it or leave it, take it or leave it

Are you as good as I remember baby, get it on, get it on
'Cause tonight is the night when two become one

[Chorus]

Ah, oh wow
Ah, oh wow

Be a little bit wiser baby, put it on, put it on
'Cause tonight is the night when two become one

I need some love like I never needed love before
(Wanna make love to ya baby)
I had a little love, now I'm back for more
(Wanna make love to ya baby)

I need some love like I never needed love before
(Wanna make love to ya baby)
I had a little love, now I'm back for more
(Wanna make love to ya baby)
Set your spirit free, it's the only way to be

It's the only way to be
It's the only way to be
