Added example(s): Call Back
Added DiffLines:
* CallBack: In the background of the front-cover illustration from ''Humanoid'', there's a heart-shaped octagonal window that resembles the (literal) "metal heart" from ''Metal Heart'''s front-cover illustration; and, taking into consideration the lyrical theme of the title tracks from both of these albums, it's obvious that this was done intentionally.
