Lemon Tree
by Steve Agovino 07 Apr '08

07 Apr '08

Lemon Tree is by the German band Fool's Garden, from the 1995 Universal Records release "Dish Of The Day". I have the single, which has several club mixes as well. Peter Freudenthaler sounds nothing like Sting. The "Sting" version that you heard is actually a cover version by Dreams Of Paradise. The guy does sound a little similar to Sting, but definitely not him. Steve

Lemon Tree
by Sweetmomb＠cs.com 07 Apr '08

I was in a restaurant the other night, and the sound system played a pleasant little pop tune that I later found out was called "Lemon Tree" by a German Band called Fool's Garden. The reason I mention this is because, with all the ambient noise in the restaurant, I thought I was hearing some weird unknown Sting / Police tune! The lead singer seemed to be doing a fair Sting impression when he sang the first line, which is almost exactly (musically -- note for note)the first line of "Wrapped Around Your Finger". It's easily findable on You Tube if you want to hear what I mean. Speaking of "I Shall Be Released", I have some fabulous boots by that name with a bunch of Sting performances that includes the title track. I think there are 5 CD's in the series -- if there are any more out there, please let me know -- I am VERY interested!! Have a great week! Holly

Denmark show cancelled
by Mikkel Z. Herold 07 Apr '08

07 Apr '08

The June 13 show in Haderslev, Denmark, has been cancelled due to "scheduling conflicts". Ticket sales were going very slow, and with a show in Zurich the day before, I don't think it was a tough decision to make. Mikkel -- "At first just a rustle of canvas And the gentlest breath on my face But a galloping line of white horses Said that soon we were in for a race" Sting - The Wild Wild Sea www.mzh.dk

The PoliceWiki
by sockii 01 Apr '08

01 Apr '08

(And forgive the timing but nope, NOT an April Fool's Joke... 8) A new Police project on the web is now live and open to all: the PoliceWiki. http://www.policefans.org/Police_wiki/ What is the PoliceWiki? The PoliceWiki is a project created for all Police fans. The goal is for fans of The Police, Andy Summers, Stewart Copeland and Sting to document the band's history in a format that is open to everyone’s contributions of knowledge, reference materials, and experiences. Why a wiki? There is a wealth of Police and Police-related information on the internet that has been assembled and generated by a number of dedicated and hardworking people throughout the years. But the difficulty is that information on the band -- its history, its members, its accomplishments -- is spread out all over the place: a timeline of events over here; a discography over there; a list of related solo efforts elsewhere. There is also useful information scattered throughout decades of magazine articles and interviews easily lost track of through time. The goals of the PoliceWiki are to make it possible to locate such information quickly and easily, to serve as a quick reference source where various types of information relevant to the band have been brought together into a single repository, and to make it so that information can be easily expanded upon by anyone who has details to add. Can I help out? Absolutely! That's what a wiki is all about. This is a project created for fans, by fans, and won't succeed without them. In fact, right now the wiki is mostly just a framework with a lot of placeholder (or "stub") pages--we've only just begun to start to add real content. The more people who become involved in adding their time and knowledge to the project, the better it will become. If you're interested in contributing to the project, please read through our Help pages (http://www.policefans.org/Police_wiki/index.php?title=Help:Contents ) for more information, or contact sockii with your specific questions. sockii(a)policefans.org
