Yes Khanada, you're right about the song "Murder By Numbers" ... I was actually playing albums yesterday, so I checked my albums for the references in my above post. "Murder By Numbers was NOT on The Police's "Synchronicity" ALBUM ... it was only put on the CD version. After re-checking my CD, I noticed that song and was going to add it here today, but I was obviously beaten to it !!  As for "Desert Rose" ... I'm not going to "flame" you ... but I don't share your opinion. That song was brilliant ! ... I love it !!

I don't see anything wrong with Desert Rose. It has Cheb Mami's middle eastern vocals and is a pretty sexy song a la Fast Cars by U2.

Y'know, if Sting wrote all of Andy's guitar lines, then how was poor Andy able to make all those solo records without Sting there to write his guitar parts for him?

The first time was at either the Forum or the Sports Arena in LA, and it was on the Zenyatta tour I think because Sting wore a Beat t-shirt in the Don't Stand video and I wore my Beat t-shirt to the concert. I remember thinking at the time how good the concert was because of how good they were playing. The second time was at Hollywood Park (in LA) of all places, an outdoor racetrack. It was before U2 played the Memorial Coluseum (I can't spell that word, so I've given up on it) and I swore off outdoor shows. I should have listened earlier. Video screens at concerts were new, and the band seemed more fascinated with the video screens than making music. They took a break in the middle of the show to go backstage and perform antics that were broadcast on the screen. I can't remember what tour is was. I didn't keep track of things like that back then. A new album came out, I went to see the concert. |

Yes martha, it was a b-side too ... I've just checked my 45s and saw that the song was also on the "Every Breath You Take" single as well as the Synchronicity CD ...

... Oh no, I don't think so !!I sometimes tend to "forget" about the good old 45s ... even my albums are NEVER quite played enough anymore !! Actually, it's just more of a "hassle" to take them out of their jackets and throw 'em on that blasted turntable !!  Well, I guess I'm trying to "preserve" that turntable for as long as possible now ... You know, one of these days I get the feeling it's gonna "quit playing" FOR GOOD !!

hehehe, thats funny...i love all albums but if i had to rank them that would be it,
i love regatta cause it has the wonderful grooves of their early stuff but slightly better album overall [not Be My Girl Sally  ] and Ghost because the music had developed by then and i overall i like it betetr than syncronicity and zenyatta.zenyatta lyrics were a bit too silly at times, whereas Ghost had a more balanced blend of good lyrics and good music. Syncronicity i like but i guess i could go w/o miss grandeko, mother, tea in the sahara....king of pain, murder by numbers, and wrapped around your fingers are definitelt soem of my fave police songs overall. Regardless, i can listen to all albums straigh through wihtout getting tired of them, I love the Police and if it weren't for them i would have never gotten into U2, they were my favorite band until i slowly but surely discovered U2 and went through their entire catalog which eventually pushed The police into second place. |
