From: foxie Subject: (police) similiarity in Beatles/Police breakups Date: 03 Jan 2001 09:05:16 -0800 (PST) Hey! Let's admit it: one of the great things about Christmas is that you get gifts that you couldn't justify buying for yourself. One such item on this year's list fort me was the new Beatles Anthology book. And what it read it has been. I am reading it from back to front - I admit it: I am much more interested in reading about the end of the group than the beginnings. I send you this e-mail to reveal a comment in the book made by George Harrison about Paul MacCartney - this when The Beatles were in the studio recording LET IT BE. George states that in the sessions, MacCartney came into the studio knowing exactly how he wanted his songs to sound; that he wanted little if any imput on them from the other Beatles; that this flew in the face of how The Beatles had always recorded - that being that when someone came into the studio with a song, that the entire group worked on it. It was not the possession of one member - that one member telling the others exactly what to do and how to do it. Basically, that each song was open ended: that each member was to use it as an outline and, if possible, contribute to something on it. Immediately after reading George's comment, my mind flew to Stewart's story of how, when recording SYNCHRONICITY, Sting came to Montserrat with completed demos of exactly how he wanted the songs to sound. Anyone that has had the pleasure of seeing VH-1's Behind The Music on The Police(and I know THAT has not been easy as, despite my constant harassment, it has aired only a handful of times)can see just what a sticking point that was and still is to Stewart. I just found the parallel interesting and thought I'd share... Only hope can keep me together Rich __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!

I've loved the Police since I was born (I'm 18) and regret I wasn't around to see them tour. I just thought I'd introduce myself and give you all a link.. a year or so I made an Andy Summers webpage (being a gutarist, I obsess over all his work) that focuses on his Police days.. it's got information on all the gear and guitars he used during the Police days, as well as many interesting lessons I wrote myself using the Police's music. It's called Zenyatta Andatta and you can all see it @ http://web.tiscalinet.it/andatta/ It tooks months of reasearch and work to put this page together, so I think anyone who's interested will be very satisfied! Hope to talk to you all later! GREG - To unsubscribe to police, send an email to "majordomo@xmission.com" with "unsubscribe police" in the body of the message.

It's an amazing view of the band, with so many pics and detalis about so many things they did! Wonderful! I guess we 'the fans' can keep our stuff together and make a book like this one...with a little help from Stewart Copeland, Andy Summers and Sting.....AND MILES!...I can even add Henry Padovani and Ian Copeland! Think about it! Ciao ciao Giovanni Hey! Let's admit it: one of the great things about Christmas is that you get gifts that you couldn't justify buying for yourself.

Second e-mail! One more thing about the Beatles and The Police break-up: I DON'T BELIEVE IN DEMOCRACY INTO BANDS!!!!! We all know that usually there is a unique important figure in a band (being the singer or someone else) and when this member decide that it's the end....I am sorry but it's the end! In some rare cases there are more than one important member (Paul McCartney and John Lennon) and when one of those two decided it was over, there was no more Beatles rule to follow. Democracy in a band usually drive the band to compromises that unfortunately won't bring to any road. Everything anyway depends on the rules of the so-called dictator, his way of listening advices from the rest of the band, if he really wants the band to have a real and proper sound. I may be wrong, but that's best the way I've seen in succesful bands! Ciao ciao Giovanni PS.: I am a dictator in my band...ehehehe!...and it works! I beleive that both Beatles and Sting went into thier respective sessions with the intent of persuing solo careers,and had either intentionally or unintentionally put a wedge or barrier between themselves and other people in thier bands.They could not wait until the sessions and obligations and duty was over to get out and away from the other people in the band. Maybe it was time for the Beatles to quit,maybe they had run thier course.My dad recently bought that "1" CD,and I barely made it through all 20 something songs,they all sounded alike,I had to pinch myself to stay awake.Maybe they were burned out.Maybe The Police were burned out at the time too?Maybe they should have taken a longer break before coming back together to record.I have been in many bands and all it takes is for one person to fall away,and the band often falls like a house of cards.When everyone wants the same thing,they are playing on the same team,but when people expect or want different things from the band,as in using the band as a means or springboard for something else then they are playing for themselves.A reunion won't fix things.it might make things worse. What good is a bunch of guys who hate each other just going through the motions of being in a band.It can't be healthy,and how would such a thing not show in the playing.

Subject: (police) Lithium Sunset vs. If I Lose My Faith on tour Date: 04 Jan 2001 11:44:41 -0500 Hello all, Just a question to ask of ya'll since I'm listening to Sting: I saw Sting twice on tour here in the U.S. (and will see him this month here in Jacksonville) and although each set seemed the same, I noticed that he played "Lithium Sunset" on his small venue tour and played "If I Lose My Faith..." on the arena tour. I was wondering if anyone had on opinion on which song was better suited for his tour. My personal opinion was that "If I Lose My Faith" was an awesome song live, and a great lead in to "Every Breath You Take". "Lithium Sunset" had me asking "How did this song make the final cut?" Don't get me wrong, I think "Lithium Sunset" is a great song, but given that the song wasn't the 'big' release from Mercury Falling, my best guess is that "LS" was a personal favorite of Sting and that's how it made it on the small venue tour. I also noticed that Sting played "Seven Days" on some dates, but unless I wasn't paying attention he didn't play that song at either of my shows. Last thing - has anyone heard the boot from Sting's Las Vegas show?

I've got a question for the list. Has anyone ever noticed the raven in "Jeremiah Blues"? At least, I'm pretty sure it's a raven. You notice it especially with headphones, but you can hear it without too. I think, though I'm not positive, that it's just after Sting sings "when popular icons failed." Then you hear this little "caw." It's really funny! I'm pretty sure it's there and not just a trick of my hearing or a glitch in the recording. I think it's there because that song is supposed to be about doom and gloom and the raven is a bringer of doom. Thoughts? Anyone noticed this? My comment about the Grammys. They are ridiculous and have no artistic credibility, except when they give awards to someone I like, like last year with Sting :) I am really astonished that Desert Rose didn't get nominated. Considering all the people who go on winning year after year for something they released ages ago. Example: this year Alanis Morissette (gag) is nominated for a song off her CD that came out in 1998. Shania Twain has been another example the last few years. I was sure that Desert Rose would be nominated, and what's more that it would win. I'm glad "She Walks This Earth" was nominated and I hope it wins, but I seriously doubt it will. Here's hoping, anyway, that U2 wins at least one of the three categories they're nominated in. All That You Can't Leave Behind is the first new U2 release that I've liked by them since I became a real fan in the early 90s! In fact, I don't just like it, I love it.

Subject: RE: (police) "Boredom," Grammys, etc. Date: 04 Jan 2001 13:57:33 -0500 I would have to agree with the lingering nominations. I was reviewing the list this morning, and noticed that Sheryl Crow had been nominated for a song off an album I believe was also released in 1998. To receive an award in 2001 for that is prepostorous. As for the raven thing, I do recall hearing that in Jerimiah Blues, as well as in Rock Steady. Of course, that raven caw came after the woman asked the rhetorical question "you got any more bright ideas?" That's like asking your girlfriend if you can go to the nudie bar. If you have to ask, the answer is no! -----Original Message----- Sent: Thursday, January 04, 2001 12:36 PM For the people who spend time analyzing the grammar of Soul Cages when they're bored: I quite understand.

Date: 04 Jan 2001 14:46:54 -0800 Hey everyone, I'm curious to know what you all think of XYZ, Andy Summers' 1987 'pop' album. I've seen alot of opinions varying from "it's inspiring" to "it's abominable." It kinda sucks that it's out of print, in my view it's a killer record and many people probably short-change it because it's like Andy was 'poking his head in the wrong places' with it. Sure, it's different, but other artists have gone to 'different territory' and came out with apalling records.. like Lou Reed (1979's 'Metal Machine Music', which is just four sides of electronic feedback) or Neil Young (1983's 'Trans', which finds him layering his voice with synthesizers.) There's nothing 'weird' about XYZ! I think Andy's songwriting is marvelous on 'XYZ'... I mean, c'mon, he totally bares his fears and hopes of love and life on each and every tune. It's only ten songs, but I feel like I can't do anything the rest of the day after I listen to it. All I'm saying is that it does not deserve all the negativity it lives with, but hey, that's my opinion after all. So what do you people think of it?

I believe it is now out of print and the CD was made in Europe or Japan I think. Anyway, after listening to it I think I can say that it is either his worst or possibly second worst album next to Mysterious Barricades (his second album). It's his only attempt at a true "pop" album and in my opinion the music is pretty bland and none of the songs are particularly memorable. Also, his voice on the album doesn't really sound like his regular voice as compared to "Someone To Talk To" and "Mother." I for one feel that Andy's albums have gotten better over time. His jazz work is definately my favorite. I think that "Last Dance of Mr. X," "Green Chimneys," and "Peggy's Blue Skylight" are his best albums to date. "Stings of Desire" is also an excellent accoustic album. I'm glad to see that Andy has found a new home on RCA Victor after a few years of moving around record labels. If you haven't seen him play live, you should. His skills have only gotten better with time. It's too bad that his live shows aren't better attended. He really deserves a larger audience.

It's good that he got out of that and went back to his own music, doing what he really loves. 'XYZ' was like his 'goodbye' to pop music after playing it to perfection in The Police. What I meant was some people see 'XYZ' like this child that shouldn't have been born... I agree with you saying that about the songs... there are some moments of the album that are really good (i.e. "The Only Road," "Hold Me") and some that are like, 'what was he thinking?' (i.e. 'Almost There', the chorus of "Eyes Of A Stranger.") His solos and guitarwork are, of course, killer, but nothing compared to later on. And it's true, his albums are truly 'progressive', as each one gets better! Maybe I have this opinion of it because I just got XYZ (yea, it's a bootleg...) and it's still 'fresh.' I bet if I give it time I'll notice why his voice sounds different on every song (lol.) When I saw him at the Baked Potato last June, there were only like 15 people there. I thought the club was gonna be packed, I mean, the very name 'Andy Summers' on the marquee of the dang club should get SOME attention. HE USED TO BE IN THE POLICE!!! People?

Other songs include Spirits..., Invisible Sun, Too Much Information, One World, Every Little Thing..., and a song that didn't make it to the album titled Don't Think We Could Ever Be Friends.

I have never heard anything so new since i have heard "Truth hits everybody '83" ! It's like discovering a whole new Police song, i wish we can put or hands on more of those demos that are hidden from anyone. I have a question for Luke, can we have more of that demo tape, i need to have another piece of the whole pie ... It's torturing me! Can anyone post the new De Do Do Do'86, caus' i missed it when it was posted last! I will never forgive The Police for breaking up! Everytime i discover a unreleased or demo song i feel like crying caus' they sound so fresh and new to my ears! Kinetic Kid __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Here is an excerpt of interest from an article about Patric Kjellberg of the Nashville Predators. If anyone wants to read the whole article it can be found at http://www.euroreport.com/sweden/010112kjel.html ...It also didn't hurt that Nashville is considered a musical mecca. He prefers jazz to country, though. On the pop side, Kjellberg favors Sting, the former lead singer of the Police, whose 1985 solo album Dream of the Blue Turtles was credited with breaking down barriers between jazz and rock. "I've been a big fan since probably fifteen years back. He's extraordinary as a musician and he involves himself in things to save this planet, which I think is good." Speaking of the police, Kjellberg has a background in law enforcement. He took a two-year sabbatical from the Stockholm police department to play hockey in the United States... - To unsubscribe to police, send an email to "majordomo@xmission.com" with "unsubscribe police" in the body of the message.

The translated article follows this note. Looks like the reviewer has the same opinon of a lot of Sting fans. The translation isn't perfect but the closing point is very clear. Rich -- "Sting pleased, but she did not convince" With the years, Sting to has changed his musical proposal remarkably. If in their beginnings by the end of the ' 70 with The Police reached world-wide stature with a simple mixture, but power of punk, reggae, dub and rock, the time has turned it into a domesticated musician, of easy digestion and enemy of the stylistic risks. Because last night in the athletic track of the National Stage and in his third visit to the country, the bear not very often could excite the seven thousand spectators who occurred to appointment in the enclosure. Except for when it interpreted subjects that comprised of their artistic top like are Magic, Rosanne and Every Breath, that the applause redoubled and summoned to the dance, the rest journeyed by laziness and the conformismo. As maximum apostle of wolrd music Sting and his companions introduced a harmonic symphony that seemed to calm a basic requirement for an original spectacle: the attitude. Always playing with the experience which they give interminable years of race, the artist raised the scene - with a delay of near one hour dressed in a black polera and after interpreting three songs she went to the public with "good Santiago nights". Without separating an apex from his sonorous religion plagued of subtilities and innocent effects, the musician processed a prescription based on his last album, Brand New Day (2000), with subjects like Desert Rose, Perfect Love and After the Rein, among others. But he only left his amazing calm when singles remembered that has installed it in the posterity. Enjoying a privileged person he forces as vital vowel as luminous, Sting in front of did not have demons who allowed him to encarrilar their show by difficult ways. All the opposite. He was always dominating absolute of the situation introducing changes of rates or adding new melodic keys to his repertoire. After near one hour and average of performance, the Briton returned to close a planned, solid concert and with an excellent sound. But that had in the lack of risk and the little improvisation its worse defect. Sometimes, the extreme maturity is badly a business. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Grrrrrr I'm familiar with the song "Thank You" but I can't remember the beginning of it. It's getting quite a bit of airplay right now. BTW, I saw Dido about a year ago at the Hard Rock Cafe here in Houston after hearing "Here With Me" and falling in love with it. (too many here's! lol) She was good but seemed a little uncomfortable, I guess she hadn't been doing concerts very long? Her band could use some beefing up. Otherwise, I had a really good time. I got to meet her and get her autograph. She was very open and friendly and mixed with the crowd after the show. Funny, the CD has been out for over a year now and, suddenly, she's become *hot*. Better late than never, I'm sure! Didn't she open for Sting at a few of his concerts?

Sounds like bad security, glad no one tried to hurt him. Sting's Chilean Award Reportedly Stolen at Argentine Gig BUENOS AIRES, Argentina (Reuters) - Thieves raided rock star Sting's dressing room before a concert in the Argentine capital overnight and ran off with a bag of his "personal effects" reported to include a human rights award from Chile, police said Wednesday. Officials refused to confirm what had been stolen from the rock icon -- who was at a pre-concert sound test at the time of the theft -- but local newspaper Pagina 12 said an award the Chilean government gave him earlier this week for defending human rights during former dictator General Augusto Pinochet's 1973-1990 rule had been taken. "Sting reported the theft of a bag containing personal effects from his dressing room while he was at a sound test," a police spokeswoman said, refusing to give further details. Sting's song "They Dance Alone," about the mothers of those who disappeared under Pinochet's brutal dictatorship, under which some 3,000 people were either killed or went permanently "missing" -- became an emblem for the former strongman's victims and their families. But the former frontman of the now-defunct pop trio The Police pushed ahead with his one-off Buenos Aires concert late Tuesday however, winning rapturous applause from a 26,000-strong crowd at the Velez soccer stadium in the west of the city with songs from his Police days and his new album "Brand New Day." Police officials said they would tighten security at the stadium in time for a concert by The Red Hot Chili Peppers, due to play at the stadium next week after following Sting across to Argentina from the Rock in Rio music festival in Brazil - To unsubscribe to police, send an email to "majordomo@xmission.com" with "unsubscribe police" in the body of the message.

Tickets go on sale in early February. With tickets limited to 8,000, the Smithfield venue capacity is less than that of The Point so early booking is advisable. Also on the line-up for Sting at Smithfield is the legendary, Grammy award-winning, Jeff Beck whom Eric Clapton has called "the best guitarist around". Both Sting and Jeff Beck will then appear at Hyde Park, along with Nitin Sawhney at Hyde Park on July 28th. Sawhney wrote the track Nadia on Beck's new album, 'You Had It Coming. The album is out on Jan 29th and also features a cover of Muddy Waters' 'Rollin' And Tumblin'. - To unsubscribe to police, send an email to "majordomo@xmission.com" with "unsubscribe police" in the body of the message.

Ok, let me explain..... In Verona, at the Arena, back in 1991, I could get backstage thanks to a pass I got from the promoter (or from someone else, I don't remember very well); like a 'shark', I used to walk around Sting dressing room...ehehehe...waiting for the man to come out...then I realised he wasn't there yet; he arrived very late, a few minutes before the beginning of the concert, when I alredy got my place in front of the stage to get pics from the area where only photographer could stay; sincerely I never thought about stealing something from Sting dressing room, but I remember that at the end of the concert Sting run away, leaving some stuff (he wouldn't use anymore) in his dressing room...and the 'shark' (that's me) could get into the room to get everything he could grab! Ok, this isn't exactly what happened a few days ago in Buenos Aires, and I never meant to do something like that...(now if I want something from Sting I simply ask him...eheheheh!), but you know how it ended?

Ciao ciao Giovanni BUENOS AIRES, Argentina (Reuters) - Thieves raided rock star Sting's dressing room before a concert in the Argentine capital overnight and ran off with a bag of his "personal effects" reported to include a human rights award from Chile, police said Wednesday. Officials refused to confirm what had been stolen from the rock icon -- who was at a pre-concert sound test at the time of the theft -- but local newspaper Pagina 12 said an award the Chilean government gave him earlier this week for defending human rights during former dictator General Augusto Pinochet's 1973-1990 rule had been taken. "Sting reported the theft of a bag containing personal effects from his dressing room while he was at a sound test," a police spokeswoman said, refusing to give further details. Sting's song "They Dance Alone," about the mothers of those who disappeared under Pinochet's brutal dictatorship, under which some 3,000 people were either killed or went permanently "missing" -- became an emblem for the former strongman's victims and their families. But the former frontman of the now-defunct pop trio The Police pushed ahead with his one-off Buenos Aires concert late Tuesday however, winning rapturous applause from a 26,000-strong crowd at the Velez soccer stadium in the west of the city with songs from his Police days and his new album "Brand New Day." Police officials said they would tighten security at the stadium in time for a concert by The Red Hot Chili Peppers, due to play at the stadium next week after following Sting across to Argentina from the Rock in Rio music festival in Brazil - To unsubscribe to police, send an email to "majordomo@xmission.com" with "unsubscribe police" in the body of the message.

Date: 20 Jan 2001 00:19:01 -0800 (PST) No matter how you slice it , the Brand New Day tour is Sting's most disappointing tour to date. The BND album is great with a good mixture of styles, my problem with lack of jazz is the tour, not the album. Any songs from the album containing complex arrangements or a jazz flavor (Ghost Story, Tomorrow We'll See) has been dropped. Instead we get "We'll Be Together" and "Set Them Free", very disappointing. If Sting was in this same vibe in 1987, he would have dropped "Sister Moon" from the NLTS tour, happy he didn't. Another problem, check the following link, there are two live video tracks from the Argentinian gig; http://www.elfoco.com/El_Foco/CDA/review/professional/1,1733,3_530_6___3693,00.html Sting obviously has not touched these arrangements in 9 months. This is surprising because Sting always experimented and bettered songs as the tours progressed. I mean every note vocally and musically is exactly the same, 1000 years is the exact same as the Universal gig. I think he needs to fire his musicians and go on stage with a prerecorded tape and sing on top the music because these musicians are obviously robots now. As much as Vinnie missed out on the most popular tour, he would gone insane on a tour like this. One positive sign is the introduction of "Shape of My Heart". Anyway, one more Pop tour like this and my fandom will be severely diminished. If he goes that route again, I rather see a Police reunion, even the Police had more experimentation on stage than this tour. In the end these are the reviews you get when a tour gets boring, courtesy Stingchronicity ( http://www.stingchronicity.co.uk/ ), of the Santiago gig. -------------------------- With the years Sting has noticeably changed his musical proposal. If at the beginning - in the late 70’s with The Police - he achieved world stature with a simple but energetic mix of punk, reggae, dub and rock, time has transformed him into a domesticated musician, easily digested, and an enemy of risks. Last night, at the Estadio Nacional, and on his third visit to the country, the bass player could barely awe the seven thousand spectators who gathered at the Chilean field. All except the times when he played songs like Roxanne, Magic, and Every Breath – that made the crowd go wild and dance – the general feeling was that of a half-hearted concert. As the maximum apostle of world music, Sting and his band introduced an harmonic symphony that seemed to fulfill the need for the basic formality in any true concert: attitude. Taking advantage of the experience only gained through years in the music business, the artist climbed the stage (one hour late) dressed in a black shirt, and after playing three songs he greeted the audience with a “good night Santiago”. Without moving an inch from his musical religion, plagued with subtleties and candid effects, the bass player came up with a recipe based on his latest album, Brand New Day (2000), with songs like Desert Rose, Perfect Love, and After the Rain, among others. Only coming out of his spasmodic tranquility when playing the singles that have granted him a place in posterity. Gifted with privileged vocal strength, every bit as luminous as vital, Sting didn’t face any demons that might have led his show through back roads. On the contrary, always in complete control of the situation, he introduced changes in rhythms and added new keys to his repertoire. After about an hour and a half of show, the British artist came back to close a well-planned and solid concert. The only catch was the lack of risk and little improvisation; sometimes extreme maturity is bad for business. ---------------------- Later Gerard __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Date: 20 Jan 2001 01:50:52 -0800 (PST) Based on the link I posted in my original message, 1000 years and STF showed no change from 3/2000, I must be going deaf or the quality was not clear enough to hear the drum changes in 1000 years. If you are telling me that the other songs are evolving, then great but maybe I need to hear a good quality recording of the Rock in Rio. I know for a fact there was no improvements from 3/2000 to the 8/2000 US summer tour. As for the song selection, it still sucks, any tour with We'll Be Together and Set Them Free in the same set list leaves much to be desired. Not to mention we have been hearing the same old songs since the TST tour, that's over 10 years.

Date: 20 Jan 2001 10:24:51 -0600 (CST) Hello Gerard, I agree with you totally. Sting's BND record was very good, but live, he has become incredibly boring. Some of the responses to this thread have been, ("well, there is a change here...another little change here..."). Of course, there have been minor fix-ups, mostly because they are trying to find the right key to fit Sting's voice better and also because with the talent on stage, it s going occur from time to time. Although this is quite the rarity on this tour. I think Sting's biggest problem is trying to satisfy all the "boyband" and "pop diva" fans that his success this past year has attracted. Playing it safe and doing the hits, with the occasional obscurity, seems to be the gameplan. Still, I am looking forward to the next go round, maybe things will be different then. When his "flavor of the month" status will have gone away. dob - To unsubscribe to police, send an email to "majordomo@xmission.com" with "unsubscribe police" in the body of the message.

Subject: RE: (police) Brand New Day Tour is Sting's worst to date! - My 2 Date: 20 Jan 2001 17:07:53 -0500 Hello all, I just had to chime in on this one since I'm seeing him in concert on Wednesday. I agree with Gerard on some things. It would be nice to see Sting come out and do some new things with his live music. I have a few boots from the Police, and the "Wallaby" boot from the Ghost in the Machine tour is astounding. Great experimentation with Stew and Andy. On his current tour, I was hoping that he would do some new arrangements with "Bring on the Night/When The World", namely dropping the "When the World" part. "Bring on the Night" is a stand along song that could be stretched out to the nine or so minutes the current mix is. On top of that, it is always the same arrangements, with Dominic doing his guitar thing, and the whole thing has become predictable. The two enlightening things from this tour for me was "Seven Days" and "If I Ever Lose My Faith". I just hope that Sting's stop here on Wednesday isn't straight out of the can. After all, he has been through South America playing a few different songs. As for being the "Worst" tour, I would have to vote for his Police Reunion Tour of '86. :-) Thanks for reading, Don in Sunny Florida -----Original Message----- Sent: Saturday, January 20, 2001 4:28 AM Hi all, It seems Gerard wants to light a new active discussion !!! :-) Well Gerard, I won't disagree with you about choice of the songs for the set (well, we had moon over bourbon street, all this time, that's not so bad) But personnally I think that the songs evolved VERY VERY much... And even a thousand years as getting some new arrangements, specially drum part, I'm sorry for you you can't hear them.... Actually I had the occasion to listen to Rock In Rio Show, and Central park, etc... I think most of the songs have great new arrangements...: >Guitar riff and chord progression completly changed in after the rain and brand new day >We did get the best new lifting of roxanne in years this tour... >Perfect love sounds so more jazzy this late tour, lots of listening in the band. >All this time get a new jazz bass riff too on the last verse, >new intro to if I ever lose my faith, new ending to every little thing she does, >Even bring on the night got a new intro!!! That's a part of thing I can remember actually, apart from the fact that the solos are way better, all playing together so nice now. And now, we have Shape of my heart during the encore, and They Dance Alone played in Chile!!! take care Martin ____________________________________________________________________________ __ ifrance.com, l'email gratuit le plus complet de l'Internet ! vos emails depuis un navigateur, en POP3, sur Minitel, sur le WAP... http://www.ifrance.com/_reloc/email.emailif - To unsubscribe to police, send an email to "majordomo@xmission.com" with "unsubscribe police" in the body of the message.

Date: 22 Jan 2001 00:55:27 +0100 Hi there everybody! Thanks a lot for the very interesting story; I didn't know about! The only thing is that maybe that story happened before 1993, as I got that sign on Sting dressing room in 1991. But it's very interestin and funny too! Thanks for sharing! Ciao ciao Giovanni << http://www.fanzine.net/fanclubs/police/illegaltales >> Yeah, there is an interesting story behind that picture. Some may think that it is Charlie Brown, but in fact it is a picture of Sting. The story goes that back in 1993 Sting visited a fortuneteller in Rome and inquired as to what he would look like when he would be in his eighties and she systematically drew that picture. He is wearing his "Sting" shirt that gave him his name. You can also see that he would have finished losing his hair by then. The "P" stands for his thoughts of regrouping the Police. She said that he would reform the Police that age due to his thoughts concerning his own mortality. You can see that his English nose is in full bloom. However, if you think that he looks bad at that age, you should see the picture that he asked her to draw of Andy. Few have seen it, but I am told that he is well hidden inside of a casket. At this point Sting had to see what would become of Stewart. So he asked her to foretell what Stew would look like. She thought, and drew, and as Sting looked a loud laugh was heard throughout the village. It seems that all the paper showed was a giant head. It was then that Sting knew a reunion was out of the question because Stewart's ego had grow even bigger. So now Sting uses that picture on all of his dressing room doors as a reminder of the humbleness that he strives to find You have a treasure there, and now you know the entire story. - To unsubscribe to police, send an email to "majordomo@xmission.com" with "unsubscribe police" in the body of the message.

However, the words are Great too!! Let me be the first to say that I like "someone to talk too" its not that bad. I can think of some Sting songs that are worse than "someone." How about "a different kind of love." Stew did that I believe. You can hear Sting tell a screaming girl to "shut up." Oh, and for anyone who doesn't have a problem with napster, you can find Stew's one time project Oysterhead on there. Its all live from the jazz fest. As some might know, the band is made up of Les from Primus and Trey from phish. They sound Great. Don't worry though, since none of the songs were ever released, you wont be stealing from Stews pocket.

Date: 22 Jan 2001 19:59:18 -0800 (PST) I really don't care what people think of this song, because i think it's original in it's own way and it portrays a certain truth in our society. Andy took everything necessary to make the atmosphere work for it to go into that final climax which i think is brilliant. The way his voice just fades away with that gong gives me a chill in my back to this day! And what about that well calculated guitar solo that gave the middle piece some character and nobody ever said anything about it. This song is the most feared song and the most unpopular vote amongst fans and i simply don't know why? I guess it served they album well because everybody can't stop talking about it! And what were you guys going to say about Miss Gradenko?!!! My two cents!

Date: 22 Jan 2001 23:18:49 -0700 I probably stand alone with this sentiment, but no matter how good the lyrics are, I can't stand King Of Pain. It's quite possibly my least favorite Police song. The guitar solo always makes me cringe... I always have the image of Andy and Stewart recording their parts on that song at gunpoint or under duress.

To have that kind of wit and personality and not have it used in some ways seems a waste.On the other hand XYZ seems very introspective,melancholy,like Andy coming out of a catharsis of a very depressing time.The time spent at the top of the world, which should have been very happy,was not seemingly enjoyed.If you've ever heard it, you would know. There is some kind of mysterious new project on the burner, a new band,yet un named with some guy from the sixties who was in a lot of famous bands of that era.

In a way it's kind of good the Police broke up, I mean, Sting's ego was over-domineering everything and ruined the creative chemistry of the band. It got to the point where, it wouldn't matter who was playing the guitar and drums, Sting would have remained in the spotlight always. And remember, they were in tension for years. It took hours of argument from Stew and Andy to re-arrange 'When The World Is Running Down' from a night-clubby disco song into a textural rock masterpiece. Listen to the Police - Live! - Disc One, 'Walking On The Moon.' What does Sting say? "Here's a song from my new record!" Reminds me of a Synchronicity parody I wrote last year... Here's a bit of 'He's A Pain' : There's a mixer torn by a musician's pack That's the band down there . . There's our new record made with a broken back That's the band down there There's a little red dot on the board today It's the same old thing as yesterday I have stood here before inside the boring room With the headphones attached tight 'round my brain I guess I'm always hoping that I'll end this strain But it's his destiny just to be the pain . . . He's a pain He's a pain He's a pain He'll always be, be a pain Don't get me wrong, I have total respect for Sting, it's just that what Luke says is spot-on. Oh, and Andy's songs RULE. They are some of the most enthralling pieces of progressive pop/rock that have been written. Same acclaim goes to Stew/Klark Kent ('Excesses' is my fave!)

It is definitely my favorite Andy song from the Police days, though Someone To Talk to is not bad. TOWOS closes out Zenyatta with a bang--perfectly. I think the reason this song worked is that it had a massive rhythm section, compliments of Stewart. I guess it would have been hard to do live but I would have loved to hear it that way.

That's why he still couldn't fill a 100 seat club in San Jose 2 years ago. Amazing that yet still you guys continue to damn Sting for his creative energy while in the Police. No doubt Stew and Andy were a big part of the Police sound but it is obvious Sting was the creative genius in the band. This arrogance by Stewart /Andy and some fans are the exact reasons Sting will never agree to a Police reunion, give the man the respect he deserves!

I myself am also against those people who blame it all on Sting. I know I overshot my attempt to prove my point, but I respect Sting very much and I'm not out to damn him in any way. Otherwise I wouldn't have all his solo albums; I enjoy his music. All I was saying is: the friction that went on in the Police's career got to the point where it wouldn't matter who was playing behind Sting, they were almost like session musicians in the studio. It was best for Sting to go on and do what he wanted to do alone. He was the creative genius, that's pretty obvious. He wrote some of the most killer songs in the last millenium. It was just better to let the wild horse run free, and not keep it in the stable. I checked out the whole my/our thing, and it's really obvious that his British accent slurs the 'ou.' I read that he said 'my' at an Amazon.com review. Looks like I had to see for myself to make sure. About the 'When The World Is Running Down' song transformation, I read this from the words of Andy Summers in a radio interview transcript from 1984. And I only mentioned how good Andy's and Stew's songs were because a similar discussion was going on at the same time.

No, the story goes (this one is for real) that Sting hated that song so much, that he dug a hole and put the master record of the song in and buried it. However, a case has been filed to get the "dirt" a Grammy as well, since it may have made the song sound better. I wonder what Andy was doing behind that camel. Yeah on a lot of Andy's songs Sting wouldn't even play bass, Stew has said that he had to play the drums since no one else knew how.

While you make some interesting points, but overall your arguments sometimes seem to be unrealistic or overly critical. I remember, it was someone from Argentina (I might be wrong about the country) who indicated that there are Sting Fans who don't get a chance to see him that often or cannot afford to see him. CONSIDER YOURSELF LUCKY BY BEING ABLE TO SEE STING SO MANY TIMES OR BEING ABLE TO AFFORD TO SEE HIM. It appears that in our society these days we tend to criticize anything or overly criticize. Once again, everyone thinks that they are CRITICS, and EXPECT THINGS TO BE THEIR WAY. And I know what your are going to say: "I'm a Sting/Police fan, and I have every right to complain". And believe or not, I will agree with your response. One thing to remember, As I said before, STING CANNOT MAKE YOU HAPPY WITH EVERY MOVE HE MAKES. He is running his own show/business with the help of his manager and the crew. Just be a fan with more realistic expectation. Sting's vocals are not always going to great, he is just a human just like me and you. He will have his great days in a concert, and he will also have his bad days. No musician CAN SAY THAT THEY ARE HAPPY WITH EVERY CONCERT OR PERFORMANCE of their career. Just remember, when you were in school, you DIDN'T ALWAYS GET AN A+ IN YOUR subjects or your studies. JUST RELAX AND ENJOY HIS MUSIC SINCE THIS IS GOING TO BE THE LAST DECADE (educated guess) of his PERFORMANCE.

I don't even consider most of it Sting criticism. What pisses me off with a Sting performance are fundamental flaws that an artist of his stature should not be dealing with. Bad sound systems and mixes are not typical of a Sting concert, this tour is my first experience of this. You will never see a Phil Collins go on TV with a bad vocal mix, it just doesn't happen, Sting is partly to blame but this is more a management problem. Do you remember how in October, November, 1999, the first 3 months of the tour, the entire first leg of the US tour, EVERYONE was raving about how INCREDIBLE Sting's voice was at the concert. The summer tour, different sound system, different mix, different halls (outdoors where the sound is supposed to be better), and all of a sudden his voice sounded flat. This is NOT tour fatigue, that is the result of a terrible technical staff. Sting did not loose his voice at any of those shows, it was all in the mix/sound system/engineers! Of course I also complained about the set list, and lack of improvisation, no evolution in the song arrangements, yes those are clearly STING's fault, but that's my right to complain about the commercialism of the tour. You need to relax and not get so sensitive every time I write a negative review. Please define what comment of mine was "unrealistic". You say "CONSIDER YOURSELF LUCKY BY BEING ABLE TO SEE STING SO MANY TIMES OR BEING ABLE TO AFFORD TO SEE HIM", first off, you do not know what I can afford, those concert ticket prices were a stretch for me but I am a huge fan and unfortunately I did not know about the audio/mix problems before I purchased my tickets, else I clearly would not have seen so many shows in the summer tour. I posted a review here after my 10/30/99 LA concert that this was going to be his best tour (obviously you forgot that) and after hearing a 3/00 RAH radio concert, i was so impressed, I stretched my wallet to see as many shows as possible. Now, after spending all this money, you are crazy to tell me just "CONSIDER YOURSELF LUCKY BY BEING ABLE TO SEE STING", man give me a break with your nonsense. I saw more shows when ticket prices were cheaper on the TST tour and was NEVER disappointed. Take your rubbish somewhere else.

Whether the actual song is a hybrid of the screenplay for BRIMSTONE AND TREACLE is debateable; therefore, the song could be interpreted as an S&M song if one chooses to, I suppose. When featured in the film, the song is edited into a a scene where our hero, Martin (Sting), is shamelessly attempting intercourse on a previously comotose, struggling and seemingly unconsenting waif (arguably in need of a shave in the garden spot, imo;'); all the while shouting in her face (and disrespecting a resting household) "Shut up, bitch!"

ENG was in the top 10 U.S. movies for only a few weeks, and it certainly didn't make much of a blip on the movie radar screen. And I thought Sweat Box (or whatever it might be called) was going to be in theaters around the same time as ENG. Frankly, ENG didn't seem to get that much attention (maybe I'm wrong, maybe Burger King has given away millions of llama toys to excited children with their Happy Meals). So I'm wondering if Sweat Box will come out at all. Besides us fanatical fans, who is going to want to go see a documentary about the making of movie music for a movie that wasn't a big deal?? I live in a small area. We have one (!) small theater that shows independent movies. I doubt I'll ever see it in a theater even if it is released. My Funny Friend.... made even less of an impact than the movie. (Whereas Phil Collins' Tarzan song was pretty big). And given the way Sting was treated by Disney, et al, I don't see a Sting soundtrack for ENG The Sequel on the horizon.

The goal being discussion Surely a major divisive force for the Police was the unequal distribution of royalties. Sting loves to say I was the song writer of the band and this was my role da da da...but neglects to say that this was the top role and most rewarded. I understand his position since the genisus and form of the songs largely came from him. Yet the genisus of The Police and the energy of the police and the energy of the songs came from Stewart (and Andy as well). THis was brilliant opportunistic marketing and no doubt Sting would never have been quite as successful without Sewart Miles Andy etc. I read that Andy and Stewart got a 20% royalty for writing on sting's stuff ( can any body confirm this) and it makes sense why they each had to have one song on the album since this gave them another 10% each. If this is correct Andy and stewart each got approx 26% and Sting 48% virtually double the amount. Obviously I'm speculating on the small amount of information I've heard. THen there are concerts- would Sting get an even greater share here as well? But sting had a publishing contract before he met Andy and Stewart- the infamous virgin Richard Branson contract which he ended up fighting in court and winning the right to break and then sign with EMI. And this is possinly why a more equal structure was never set up ie 30,30 ,40 For all the talk about role playing etc and knowing your role it was the financial structure that would have torn them apart. Sure everyones doing well but some are doing incredibly well. EVERYONES EQUAL BUT SOME ARE MORE EQUAL THAN OTHERS. I noticed on the Coldplay CD - Parachutes, (which I can recommend as one of the best CDs I've heard in a long while) that the songs are credited to the entire band. There is no one song writer. I'm sure there would actually be one. Is this a better structure? Do bands that opt for this approach achieve greater longevity? Certainly this is one of those albums that's bigger than one person like the Police stuff was and Sting's stuff isn't. As much as I love Stings work to death it hasn't been Synergised. Alchemy hasn't quite been achieved. Perhaps all it would take is Stewart to come in and say play the bass on the 2nd beat as opposed to the first, Andy to get rid of the Bosanova and hey presto gold Bullion. As much as I love the Police's stuff its never to the point of complete asphyxiation. Somehow it is preserved and fossilized very well. But the guys in Sting's band would be to much in awe of him to say hey fuck you- I think you should do it this way. After all they'd be on a salary and not even a royalty if the Bring on the night Doco is anything to go by. I believe if Sting keeps this approach/structure he will become like one of his beloved dinosaurs. The king on his throne with his eyes torn out..... The blind man looking for a shadow of doubt.......Sting seeks absolute control but ultimately this deprives his music of the X factor which is the missing ingredient. Sting needs to set up a different types of structures to survive. The emporor's new Groove stuff ( what I've heard of it ) seems quite fresh in that he wrote with someone else and he also had an unnervable critic in the Disney executives who were financially independant of STing.He produced in his words better and better stuff. Maybe this is a good way forward for him. Sting says of his album music that he writes and plays his music to Trudy and if there's any interest he continues further with it. Once upon a time he wrote for a much bigger demographic the likes of Stewart copeland Andy summers The punks The era ...etc To achieve some interest from this environment would have been no mean feat. And the "manufacturing of crisis" which sting denies did help his music. I don't think yoga has helped stings music. Yoga tends to set one apart from crisis. Centres you and allows you to be uneffected by the turmail around you. Watch it but be umoved by it. A lot of the spectrum of emotions has gone from the music. There are no songs about anger ( nothin acheivin') , real hurt ( every breath you take...) His best music was that which somehow matched a specific emotion with a chordal emootion and lyrics which described the emotion. TAke a recent song about unrequented love .... Love gone wrong.....the whole metaphor of a dog and the sexy master is more of a parody than a real emotion .... Not that its a worse song than say Roxanne but its a light hearted look at unrequented love. YOu can only do that if your heart hasn't been recently broken. Can you imagine Sting writing that song after he split with Francis Tomoltry ??? There's a whole separation from the reality of the emotion in Stings work at the moment. He's using other characters to express the emotion....The transvestite...Don't judge me..you could be me in a nother life in another set of circumstances.... the Prince that rescues the princes .....After the rain.....Even brand new day has a light heartedness to the lyrics for a song describing an incredibly significant moment.... the new millenium we'll sell all the stock ...spend all the money They're like old jazz lyrics from a Gershwin song. They hardly relate to your average punter. Look a lot of it is good but I think the point I'm making has validity. There is a lot of cleverness in the music and sometimes a lot less directness and for me that tends to distract from or remove the emotional content and that's what really captivates ones ownself. Roxanne does this so brilliantly...message....bring on the night..every little thing..every breath...The list goes on. Perhaps songs like After the game are more heart felt and certainly the Wild wild sea was one of Sting's most provocative works. This was commercially a bad experience for STing though in many peoples minds it stands out and the album sold moderately all over the world. I think it will be interesting to see what Andy does in that it sounds as if he has set up a real band.... as opposed to the previous I bought U2s album and thought at first this is great. It has the energy of old. But now I am completely over it. Its like U2 imitating U2. It doesn't quite work. Though BND has been commercially successful this has been the greatest in America where the album has been flogged. In Australia I've never heard it once played on the radio. I saw the filmclip to BND on cable TV once. The most airplay it got was when it first came out. I think Sting will need to be incredibly thoughtful with his next album to avoid over saturation of this form of pop. Interested to hear peoples opinions on this.

I'm one of those U2 fans who didn't like Zooropa and Pop. I realize that it'll probably take me about two years to get perspective on the new record, because right now I'm not quite rational about it. Ask me then and I'll know how much I really like it in the grand scheme of things. But go back and listen to a song like "New York." Even though I don't like half of their 90's work, I don't think they could have done a song like that, with the drum loop and all, without some of the stuff they experimented with in the last decade. And then, at the same time, it sounds like something off October. And somehow it's something new and powerful. To me. I think U2 is different from the Police, in the dynamics between band members. I actually think that U2 is almost totally unique in that they've been together for about 25 years and they're still all friends, they've never had other members, and I think it's almost unimaginable to think of one person leaving U2 and someone else replacing him. Even though not all the members are equally important musically. I don't think anyone would argue that Adam Clayton, or even Larry Mullen, is as important to the band as Bono and Edge. It's also debatable whether Bono or the Edge is more important musically. But if you took Adam Clayton away and replaced him with someone who was just as good or better, which I don't think would be incredibly hard, I don't think it would work. There is some kind of bond that exists between the members that makes them U2. And I have a funny feeling that some of the U2 songs I hate from the 90's don't work for me because maybe the more conservative members of the band--ie. Larry--didn't like them so much, and the discomfort comes through? I don't think there have ever, or seldom, been ego clashes and suchlike in U2 the way there were in the Police. I think Bono is less egotistical than Sting, and I haven't noticed the Edge having any ego at all, let alone the other two guys :) Maybe part of the problem was that Sting, Andy, and Stewart were all so incredibly talented? Maybe they weren't equally talented songwriters, but certainly musicians. Maybe their great success and the great music they produced had more to do with their talents than with a bond like the one that seems to exist between the members of U2 outside of the music? I love the Police, but I'm not sure I listen to them for emotional satisfaction the way I listen to the greatest of U2, or many of Sting's solo songs, especially Soul Cages but there are songs on every solo record. Roxanne has a great emotional directness but I'm just kind of tired of it, I don't think it's the greatest song, though I loved what Sting did with it on this tour! I also like progressive rock and with the exception of some of the great Police songs like Message and Spirits and so on I think maybe I enjoy the Police more in the way that I enjoy prog rock. I don't know, for intellectual excitement or something :) Sorry about rambling on and on--I really didn't mean to go on at such length!

Here in the UK, it's only three weeks away from release and our local Disney store isn't even selling merchandise yet (as at yesterday anyway). I also checked with one of our record superstores as to when the soundtrack would be released - and they had no record of it (Amazon say 19th Feb incidentally). Although I'm sure there's probably plenty to come - it's a vast difference to the Toy Story 2/Dinosaur bandwagons which were rolling a good three/four months before release. I've four children in the optimum Disney age group (two to nine years!) - so I shall be seeing it a) as a Sting fan and b) as a parent :-)) - but some of my kids' school chums haven't even heard of the film yet - which can make a big difference to an opening weekend. I wonder why the Disney machine has been so slow off the mark in promotion this time?

I am not 100% sure where the live tracks were recorded (doesn't state where they were recorded), Perfect Love sounds like the Universal LA show but the Mix is MUCH better on all the live tracks than the DVD (If they were indeed all from the LA show). The "Thousand Years" remix is the first I have heard this version, it's a different version to the remix import album, but really nice. Not sure what they had in mind here but I tell you, the combination of material on this and the quality of the recordings are sure to turn the "ho-hum" Target shopper ting fan into a much BIGGER fan, good marketing strategy, especially for the price of only $6.99. If this is indeed a Target exclusive, only available in the US, I'll be happy to pick up copies for any fans overseas. Hurry though as I am not sure how long this will be available.

We have no 100% certainty but it might be true: Sting has cancelled all concerts in 2001 including the concerts in the East. There will only be and extra short tour in the USA. Prices would be very high for the tickets. This is unconfirmed! So do not blame us if it turns out to be untrue.

All kinds of horrible thoughts running through my head! Say it isn't so, or give me a NICE reason why one would do this (such as he needs to stay home with his pregnant wife or something non-threatening like that)! BTW, I just picked up the Target CD! Great one. I never cease to be amazed by the marketing machine he has working for him. He's milking the past year and a half for all it's worth and then some... Hey, maybe that's it, he's canceling the tours because he finally decided he (and Miles) have more than enough money! That's the ticket...

I just have to know, because I will be away tomorrow and I have to set the VCR. My TV schedule has "Super Bowl Today" from noon to 3 Pacific time--which I assume is what I should be taping--and then the game from 3 to 7. I would appreciate it much if someone would just confirm that it's the noon to 3 slot I should tape!! I don't care about the game itself!!! Thanks!

Cheb kept singing while he did Roxanne, it was really good considering the time they were given. they didn't do ATRHF, like some people had speculated. Sting was dressed like a pirate with a gold shirt. Apparently this time every year in tampa, fl they have a big pirate festival where they give the pirates the "key to the city" and they have huge parades and parties. this year it just happened to fall on superbowl sunday. After he went into roxanne, he took off his pirate coat. i thought it was done pretty well, too bad we have to watch N'sync instead of Sting at the half time show.

The first few verses of Roxanne were almost unrecognizable and the only thing that seemed to keep any semblance of the song was Manu's drumming. And I hate it when he doesn't't play bass.

I am comparing this to the last Leno appearance, today, his voice had range, the vocals weren't overly compressed, you can hear the high notes in Roxanne clearly, on Leno, he was all monotone. At least today, someone will believe the man can really sing in 6 (or is it 7?) octaves. Yeah, A Vikings/Raiders superbowl would have been much better!

Date: 28 Jan 2001 19:31:07 EST I don't know, but I always look at preGame SuperBowl shows as a lighthearted thing. It's supposed to be fun. I don't know why some of you have to analyse it so much. Just my point of view on this, Donna - To unsubscribe to police, send an email to "majordomo@xmission.com" with "unsubscribe police" in the body of the message.

Date: 28 Jan 2001 17:26:01 -0800 Hey people, Anybody know a good online CD store that carries lots of out-of-print stuff? Anybody know a CD store with good taste, i.e. they carry all of Andy's records ;) Okay, you people get the idea. While CDNow is good for (most) bands and really popular stuff, it's only got the most recent releases by some of my favorite guitarists, like Dave Torn and Andy Summers. I wish to get their older and rarer releases, in other words I WANT IT ALL! So, can someone point me in the right (internet) direction?
