Just reading his iTunes celebrity playlist. On "Tempted" by Squeeze: "One of my favorite songs that I never wrote"...what an ENORMOUS ASS!!! [:(!][:(!][:(!][:(!]
And "Smells like teen spirit" as one of favorites?! That's like Father Holierthanthou in grade school saying "Hey kids, how 'bout that cool Elvis fella huh?"
Re Cobain: "I just wish he'd seen music as a way to heal his soul. I do think he would have gotten to that point eventually." Mother of god! Your shite is what probably drove him over the edge to begin with!!!
And his other selections of self-appointed blue-bloods like James Taylor, Clapton, Hendrix, Dylan, Gabriel, and Springsteen...that's like the f&%king Queen of England saying some of her favorite people are the King of Belgium, The Princess of Monaco, the Sultan of Oman, Jackie-O, and Pierce Brosnan!!!
HELP!!! HOW DO I GET THIS RAGE OUT OF MY SYSTEM???!!!!

To get rid of that rage, mix yourself a good stiff drink, sit in a favorite chair, put "Fields of Gold" on continuous repeat, and drift off into oblivion........

I like much of his work with the Police and a bit of his solo works but have always disliked him on a personal level. He always seemed so full of himself, the self aggrandizing twit. I highly suspect that he was the main instigator of all the in-fighting

I didn't mind his earlier solo works, but definitely lost him by the time the appropriately-titled [b]Mercury Falling[/b] came out. I imagine he'll soon be joining the ranks of Phil Collins, Elton John and Randy Newman in penning feel-good theme songs to

You made a great point MikeP, talking about the decline of once greats such as Phil Collins and Sir Elton. What in the hell happened to turn these legends into such tame has-beens? Don't say age, David Bowie and Iggy Pop still rock for their age. Disney t

Sting did contribute a song to Disney's "Emperor's New Groove" feature. If I remember the stories correctly, Sting was ready to walk off the project if they didn't change the ending (to Sting, the ending of the characters making an amusement park in the

To me the only true and real Sting was Steve Borden,the wrestler.Gordon Sumner I never liked period.And The Police,all I have to say was they were way too commercial for my liking and the type of New Wave that I like to listen to.

I loved the Oscars this year where Will Ferrell mocked Sting. Made me warm and fuzzy all over.

Sting made one reasonable solo album, his first 'Dream of the blue turtles' and the only Police album i really like is 'Regatta de blanc', beside those 2 albums (and a couple of singles) i don't really like Sting/The Police that much..

I just heard Sting's acoustic version of "Walking On The Moon" from MTV unplugged. How is it that an artist could butcher his own song like this?
