Can I gag now??

I thought it couldn't get any worse than Puff Daddy, but now we have TWISTA, ladies and gentlemen. Sting's new single - the third to be taken from the 'Sacred Love' album - will be 'Stolen Car'. The video was shot recently in Brooklyn by director Nick Quested, and Kipper recently commented "I have been busy working on a remix of 'Stolen Car' which is going to be Stings next single. This new version features record breaking rapper Twista and a complete reworking of the groove and chords. I initially did this version with my good friend Keith Beauvais in Bagshot, Surrey and I am now giving the track some Chicago flavours and Nate Kunkle is mixing it." The release date is yet to be confirmed.

RE: [Police] Stolen Car and instrumental album

Oh dear. Don't get me wrong; Stolen Car has grown on me (damned catchy chorus), but somehow it just doesn't seem like the right choice for a single. Inside? Yes. Sacred Love? Most Definitely. But Stolen Car... just not feeling it. This pales in comparison with the knowledge that a rapper is doing another version of it... I mean, I don't hate all rap, but after the horrors inflicted on Roxanne in particular, I'm leery of what may happen. As for the instrumental version of the album - where did they find it?! I'd love to get hold of a copy... Angeline _________________________________________________________________ It's fast, it's easy and it's free.

Hi, I am trying to withhold judgement on this until I hear it. I must say I saw him on Friday night at the show at the Tower Theatre in Philly and it blew me away. I think that it was one of the top three shows I have ever seen of his over the past 14+ years. He was in excellent voice and humor, the sound was wonderful and the band is really great on this tour. The version of Stolen Car that they are doing on tour is really great and somewhat different than the album (it is like the version that they did on Letterman, but better). I did like the stills of the video that they showed on Sting.com and hopefully this will get more airplay that WISYN which I think is the best song on the album (especially when Joy sings it on tour!)

Stolen Car is a great song as is. What's with him thinking he needs to appeal to the rap fans? Embarrassing. michelle in tx

The Remix and DC show

Maybe it's too much Kipper? :D Seriously, I was surprised to see him at the Sting show at the Warner Theater last thursday night. That reminds me, I need to give my semi-review of the show. I didn't take down a set list this time (though I just know I heard a Soul Gages song in there somewhere). I liked that charcoal pin-striped suit Sting wore with the white collar and cuffs. Though, I was delighted when he took off the jacket and revealed some chest (reminded me of earlier shows *sigh*). Forgive the girly moment there. :D He looked better than he did during the BND tour, I thought. I wasn't too far from the stage, so I got a good look. We spent most of the show on our feet (during The Police tunes, but not that many of the Sacred Love songs). I thought the band sounded really good musically. It was so weird that I was concentrating less on the lyrics (especially during a few of the SL songs). Sometimes the music just made me feel like dancing, then lulled me into a state of complete ease (whenever we were sitting down). I could just sit there watching Sting singing and moving in his characterist ways. :D A few interesting tidbits: It was really cute when Danny Q kept coming out to gently interupt Sting to exchange instruments (base or little guitar) with him. Sting was so involved that he just would keep playing. Yes, it was a little guitar--Sting joked that he had "a bit of an incident before the show...my guitar shrunk". Before he sang Stolen Car, he said it was about "a psychic theif who gets in touch with the owner of the car-- who is a business man with a wife, two kids...and a mistress". Then he said "I'm no psychic, where the f**k did that come from?". When he sang If I Ever Lose My Faith, he emphasised the verse "no faith in Politicians" (which received an enormous applause). Synchronicity II was really fabulous, it gave me chills. Sting's voice was so powerful and strong. He was really into it. In my mind, I heard Stewart's drumming and Andy's guitar riffs, which made it even better. Roxanne was even better than I had heard it before (it's not one of my ultimate favorites). I didn't mind that he sang A Thousand Years at the end, because when he sang "till you love me", I felt like shouting out "I love you". Well, I love that song anyway. He renewed my faith in him as a singer. I had been feeling kind of bummed, since I almost fell asleep watching the Inside DVD. Ooops. Fortunately, most of the SL songs sounded better live (as I thought they would). The ones that didn't rowse my interest still gave me a chance to just sit there and watch Sting. It was bliss.

Okay, he is obviously being held in some sort of hideous mind-control. Instead of bashing him, we should be appealing to the list for anyone who knows him to do an intervention/deprogramming/exorcism. You know, it's March 16th and it's snowing away outside. Maybe it's the entire universe...<sigh> Holly
