No disrespect to Sting, but I hope George Harrison wins the Grammy Award for
Best Male Pop Vocal Performance for his song Any Road from his posthumous
album Brainwashed.
I also hope the Quiet One sweeps the Best Pop Instrumental Song category for
Marwa Blues and the Best Male Pop Vocal Album category for Brainwashed.
The milkman's son can share Best Pop Vocal Collaboration honors with Mary J.
Blige.

just released the Windows version FYI. One of their features is
Celebrity Playlists, and Sting is one of them. I won't retype

3 Sweet Baby James (James Taylor)
4 Rope Ladder to the Moon (Jack Bruce)

Hi guys,
Anyone who's trying to get a friend hooked on Sting might like this special
offer I found on MSN UK. You can download (legally, natch) several recent
albums, including SL, for £19.99. Link:
http://sib1.od2.com/common/frameset/frames.asp
Also, thanks to whoever posted the tracklisting for the "Cold Mountain"
soundtrack. I'm *so* thrilled to hear the song Sting's composed described as
"Gaelic-tinged"; I've always been curious as to the effect that would result
if he incorporated more Gaelic influences into his work. But I am puzzled:
there's no mention of this new version of "Dead Man's Rope" that we kept
hearing would be on the CD. Anybody...?
Angeline

I found this interesting article online today:
Dec 2, 12:08 pm ET LONDON (Reuters) - No embarrassment will be spared on
Wednesday when rock star Sting presents one of Britain's least-desired
literary awards -- the Bad Sex in Fiction Award. Now in its 11th year, the
dubious honor is awarded by the Literary Review magazine for the most inept
description of sexual intercourse in a novel. Nominated authors for this
year's prize include John Updike, Paul Theroux, Paulo Coelho and Alan
Parker. Among the climactic passages in the contest is one from former BBC
radio executive Rod Liddle's "Too Beautiful for You." "She came with the
exhilarating whoops and pant-hoots of a troop of Rhesus monkeys, which was
flattering, if alarming." Motoring themes are to the fore. In Tama
Janowitz's "Peyton Amberg" a lover's intimate probing of the heroine is "as
if he was searching for lost car keys," while in Aniruddha Bahal's "Bunker
13" a female partner "picks up a Bugatti's momentum." Musical metaphors are
also well represented. The multi-orgasmic female narrator of Paolo Coelho's
"Eleven Minutes" reaches Heaven -- "I was the earth, the mountains, the
tigers, the rivers that flowed into the lakes, the lake that became the
sea." Sting, who once boasted that yoga had improved his sexual endurance,
will present the prize Wednesday evening after each of the competing
passages have been read to a 500-strong audience. Previous winners include
AA Gill, Sebastian Faulks and Melvyn Bragg.
