Police] On the subject of lyrics and their meaning .....
by Bob McKenzie 25 Nov '03

25 Nov '03

Here is one I have always meant to ask about and now seems like a good time. In We Work the Black Seam he says "...............you can't exchange a six inch band for all the poisoned streams in Cumberland." What is the six inch band? ~Anne Coal. AKA "the Black Seam". _________________________________________________________________ The new MSN 8: advanced junk mail protection and 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=dept/bcomm&pgmarket=en-ca&RU=http%3a%2f%2fjoin.ms…

by Nigel Tuffman 25 Nov '03

are any of these subjects safe , comfortable or correct ? stings rather wide fender guitar strap ? dvd burners ? lets discuss the meanings behind stings lyrics like what the heck does de do do do mean anyway ? pocket digital recorders? which sting/police song turns you on , you know .. what gets you all heated up ? high end printers ? if sting were to write another book what would the title be ? I'm sorry, I do have one controversial question do bootleggers give themselves production credits on the back covers of their cds? p.s. the cover of my sting book has a rip & i haven't finished reading it yet waaah! _________________________________________________________________ Say goodbye to busy signals and slow downloads with a high-speed Internet connection!

>>Again, in response to something. You shouldn't expect a non-reaction to >>an action. >>It isn't Rocket Science, Dork (yeah, you read it right). I don't give a >>shit about what you think since you are here to antagonize. And you >>know what? It worked - I just wish this was in person so I could beat >>you so hard your mother would feel it. >>Ross I would hardly call what I wrote antagonistic compared to your statement above. - I did not threaten anyone. - I posted IN REACTION to what has been written on the list the last several days. - I am a Dork, and proud of it. My original post was meant ironically, to point out how absurd this list had become of late. Each lister is entitled to his/her own opinion regardless of whether it is the same as someone else's. As we have learned, one person's inflammatory remark is another person's valid opinion. Each lister is entitled to "defend" ourselves if we feel it necessary, hence my second and now third posts. Nobody is a better "fan" than anyone else here, doesn't matter who's been where, done what, met who, seen how many shows. Sting sure as hell doesn't care as long as he sells CDs and $160 concert tickets. Back to lurk mode, and with good reason. The members here that post contrary to the "popular" opinion are obviously not welcome, which is exactly why I never have posted in my 5 years of being a lister... lesson learned. _________________________________________________________________ MSN 8 with e-mail virus protection service: 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/virus&pgmarket=en-ca&RU=http%3a%2f%2fjoi…

Broken Record
by Fred Berthelot 25 Nov '03

25 Nov '03

I don't mean to sound like a broken record but does anyone else have any input on Broken Music? Has anyone else finished it? It's unfortunate how The Police years go by so quickly in the last chapter, but it's great to read about Henry's involvement in the band. Those were some "really moments!"

Ok, everybody...

Hello again all... Look, In the past five or six posts, I've seen the F-word used several times, and a lot of name calling. Can we PLEASE ALL let it go? Please? Can we do something like discuss the Police? Like how cool it was when Stewart busted his drumhead during the HOF show? Or how great Andy's live shows are? Or how cool it is that Sting will be touring again soon? Please? -Tim

Police soap opera

Tomorrow, we'll see..... - Will Jeremy re-appear to confront those who have cast aspersions on his character, or will he cleverly deflect the attention away from himself once again by starting another inflammatory argument ? - Will the vitriolic political and personal arguments continue, or will we all be feelin' the (Sacred) love ? - Will Nigel-of-the-accurate-and-hysterical-observations ever post again ? - W.W.S.D. ? (What Would Sting Do?) Tune in next time to THIS WAR ... Strange Brew indeed, eh. _________________________________________________________________ Tired of spam?

soap opera

Ross: >>>As humurous as this may appear, it is exactly what cause's the recent >>>events we have witnessed here. >>>Ross >>>PS: For the record, I did not read ONE inflammatory remark from Jeremy. >>>Rather they were posted ABOUT him. He was simply defending himself. IRONIC AND MEANT IN JEST: The USA want to be a World POLICE. So for a POLICE mailing list mentioning the Chief of the World Police is within the rules... Dietmar ** ** INFLAMMATORY AND MEANT TO INSULT: Maybe you should take a look at the damage that was done when your country decided to try to take over the world, and compare it to what you say the US is doing and perhaps take some time to reflect that. Jeremy *********************************************** Apparently you missed that post. Otherwise you basically got the point. Taking a cue from Dietmar I used a writing tool known as "irony". Been a list member for years but never post due to the lack of acceptance for non-sheeplike-behavior.... Sincerely, and in utter seriousness, BOB _________________________________________________________________ MSN 8 with e-mail virus protection service: 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/virus&pgmarket=en-ca&RU=http%3a%2f%2fjoi…

>I didn't write the comment Oh, I knew that, sorry I didn't mean it to read that way. >it was not, to my knowledge, a vitriolic attack on any US >citizen I agree. I just wanted to try to give an interpretation of why someone might feel offended. >I also don't want to be accused of trolling.... No, not you Jason, you've been around too long and we know you. :D >But seriously, things have become pretty heated in the last >few days - but I'm still friends with the lot of you. No love lost.
