"INSIDE THE FAILURES OF THE LIGHT"
by Holymagiccentury 15 Aug '03

15 Aug '03

General (yeap!electric) astonishment before the magnitude of the power failure in the Worlds superpower super potency ,the grid is powerless to so much power(To be or not to begreedy?). Well the people really show great power to take this all by aback ; the last night photos of the full moon over Manhattan skylines were breathtaking in my conception but the massive scare was a high price, strangely enough I de just begin working in a painting using Times magazine photos of a huge imaginary bridge between Alaska and and millions of people gathered as lambs! Dont know anything about how speedily cascades can go on wiping the light out, but I assure you if the bill is not paid it runs out very quickly! All this to remind us of some lessons, and some songs Moon over B. Street, Secret Journey, even Inside just some that I find meaningful from a meaningful character! There are so many others from so many more ===== :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) ========================SMILE=============================== __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

[Police] Money for Nothing... and the speakers for free.... (imagine Dire Straights!)
by Stingfan222＠aol.com 15 Aug '03

Just saw this in the Financial Times. Michelle Sting makes $1.25m as voice behind SLS By Paul Sullivan in New York Published: August 15 2003 5:00 | Last Updated: August 15 2003 5:00 Sting can thank Donald Trump for arguably the easiest $1.25m (£780m) he has ever made. The rock star will today be named as spokesman for SLS International, a manufacturer of high-end audio speakers. But before having to pose for a single photograph, he has seen the value of his stake in the Springfield, Missouri-based company rise sixfold. That is thanks to the Trump Grande International in Miami, Mr Trump's latest property development, saying it would buy up to $7.1m worth of SLS's new speakers, which sent the stock soaring from 51 cents on June 24 to $1.52 yesterday. John Gott, president, said: "It was a wonderful thing to be able to get him. We sent the speakers to his house in Malibu [California]. He listened to them and the next day he called back and said 'yes'." Sting said: "Listening to music on SLS speakers at home is like listening to the actual live recording sessions." Instead of being paid, Sting agreed to accept 1m options at 25 cents a share, the price when negotiations began, Mr Gott said. The speakers are based on "ribbon driver" technology, developed last year by Igor Levitsky, an electro-acoustical physicist from Ukraine, using a new Dupont plastic. Mr Gott claims his speakers produce "20 per cent less distortion" than those of rivals Bose and Wilson Audio Specialties. Wilson said: "We don't actively compare our own speakers to others". Bose did not return calls. Mr Gott said he was courting other spokesmen from the worlds of country, Latin, hip hop and pop music. "Bose has Paul Harvey," said Mr Gott, referring to the octogenarian radio host. "We have everyone else."

Sacred Love on the radio in Texas!
by Stingfan222＠aol.com 14 Aug '03

Now why oh why the DJ puts sacred love on the SECOND he got it in his grubby hands, when I've been begging him for months to play ANY Fiction Plane song? I know the answer, but it irks me. Kind of exciting hearing it on the radio for the first time, it was a "2 at 2" feature, so they even called some dude at interscope in LA and asked for the scoop on what's going on with Sting. Nothing we don't already know. Funny, my kids were saying "that's not a new song" because the DJ kept saying we were the first to hear it. That's what happens when CDJapan delivers!!! michelle

Re: [Police] Sacred Love medley all over Kazaa

Kind of a cool idea. I wish I could hear the whole cd, though. Thre really interesting thing about the Kazaa deal is that almost every track can be downloaded as a spoof containing pieces of the medley. I got excited for a minute there thinking I could download the cd now. Thanks for sharing.

Inside again

Sorry. I looked at the lyrics again and it says glove and fingers....not quite the same as glove and hand. Honest mistake. Ross

Inside

How many of you guys have gone to the link for Sacred Love on the website and heard the clip for "Inside"? It has that sound of The Soul Cages right at the end of the clip. Reminds me a little of Mad About You or something else maybe. I feel much more excited about this song than Send Your Love. I know it's only a 10-15 second portion of the song, but what was your initial impression from that portion? Ross PS. I thought it was funny that glove and hand are mentioned in this song. Last song from last album and first song loosely use the same metaphor.
