Santa's Boyfriend / Faktory X Questions
by Morris, Donald T. 23 May '02

23 May '02

Hello all, I was wondering if anyone had anything new on Joe Sumner's group. It seems as if they have dropped off the face of the earth since they changed their name. Their old website isn't up anymore. Also, I was wondering if anyone would be willing to help me obtain a copy of the Santa's Boyfriend CD that I hear on Turning Leaf. Thanks, Don in Sunny Florida

Hi TJ, I don't know if anyone ever replied to you about this... >Every Breath You Take (special edition single) >http://stingetc.com/rare/everybr.shtml >1. Every Breath You Take >2. Murder by Numbers >3. Man in a Suitcase (live) >4. Truth Hits Everybody '83 I actually happen to have this. It took me several years to track down, but copies of this *are* floating around out there. On a side note, this happens to be the result of the scrapped 12" single for EBYT. Why they decided to change the format and do this is beyond me. But keep checking - it's bound to turn up somewhere again. And if you find it, I would jump at the opportunity to pick it up... the remake of "Truth..." is absolutely brilliant. (now if only I can find a place that sells cheap turntables...) If what Ian (Copeland) once mentioned is true and happens to come to fruition, perhaps maybe there will be a CD out with tracks not found on the box set. I'd eat that up in a second. >basically it seems sinful that the golden age of the internet and >ease-of-audio transfer not be used to the advantage of people doomed >to >love a defunct band. Agreed, but there are major technicalities involved with doing this - namely, the licensing needed to acquire the rights to copy and distribute these, and the payment of these mechanical royalties to the publishers. (who own the rights to these songs) Trust me, I'm in the business - I know all too well about these things. Whether or not I personally agree with this is neither for here nor there. But what are you going to do, you know? steve _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp.

Hi All, I too would love some information/site addresses for this band.Once I looked up "Santa's Boyfriend" on a search engine but the sites I found seemed not to have been updated for a while and basic information for someone who like me knows very little about it was very sketchy.And Factory X info is even harder to find!Maybe that's because the name was only changed to that relatively recently or something?

Sting in "Zoolander"
by Stephen S. Sayad 17 May '02

17 May '02

For those of you who have yet to see the movie "Zoolander" (starring Ben Stiller), it may be worth renting just for a scene in which Stiller's male-model rival talks about Sting being his role model, and how he admires Sting's artistry, and how, sometimes, he "even listens to one of his songs." While all this is going on, there are a few images of Sting floating from the bloke's mind. Have a nice weekend! Stephen S. Sayad

Welcome Angeline! You'll find the list is a bit quiet right now but hopefully Sting will give us a reason very soon for it to pick up again! Cheers, Anne "Angeline Adams" <angeline1981@hotmail.

Hi everyone, This is my first post to a newsgroup/list so apologies if I'm doing this wrong.Blue Turtle,I had the same thing happen to me when I bought a sealed copy of Summoner's Travels,but in reverse:it contained the "Ten Summoner's Tales" video!I'd got a batch of Sting and Police videos from a catalogue and was able to send it back in exchange for the correct video.If you contact where you bought yours from it should be possible to do the same.

To PandaBaby - (Sorry for sending this email to the list)
by BlueTurtle7777＠aol.com 14 May '02

14 May '02

Hi PandaBaby! Thank you for your email!! I live in Europe too (in Vienna, Austria) and PAL would be ok with me. And I mean the video which is made in Sting's house (Ten Summoner's Tales). I have been looking for this video since forever. Some time ago I ordered it from amazon.de and they would sent me an orginally sealed video tape (with the cover of Ten Summoner's Tales) and I put it in my vcr and instead of "Ten Summoner's Tales" there was a copy of "Summoner's Travels" on the tape? - Can one believe that? - But it is true!! I'd also prefer to exchange your copy of "Ten Summoner's Tales" with mine of Sting & The Police (Best of). Sting & The Police (Best of) contains the following videos: MIAB Can't Stand Losing You Englishman In New York EBYT Seven Days Walking On The Moon Fields Of Gold Fragile Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic De Do Do Do De Da Da Da If You Love Somebody Set Them Free Let Your Soul Be Your Pilot Russians If I Ever Lose My Faith In You When We Dance Don't Stand So Close To Me Roxanne Would it be a problem for you to send the tape by listed mail? (Some of my post seems to get lost regularly...:( Here is my address (please email me yours too) : Susanna Geyer Dietrichgasse 46/18 A-1030 Vienna Austria Cheers, Blue Turtle Ps: I was't able to email you off list. I always got my email back (< panda(a)karme.com>... Data format error)

All I can recall of it is a midget trailing after Sting calling, >'Mr Sting, Mr Sting' > >Does anyone have this lying around ? I cannot find it and it certainly >doesnt exist on any of the video tapes I have. So you made me look through my collection, and I found it. It goes like this: Man in white suit puts 8mm video tape on top of a VCR. "Here it is". Woman's voice: "Did he take the money?" Man, with a slight sneer, "Of course." --- Legs of White Suit and Midget on wooden walkway. ---- Sting asleep, on his back. His face is unshaved, and covered in sweat. Sound of thunder. He opens his eyes, startled. Midget is saying, "Mr. Sting, Mr. Sting, wakey wakey. Mr. Sting, you have a visitor. I think he remembers." Sting sits up to look at White Suit lounging in doorway. White Suit says, "You're a hard man to find." Sting says, "Not hard enough." Meanwhile we can see he's living in something like an abandoned warehouse. ---- Woman's hand rubbing her well-dressed arm, gold watch on her wrist. Woman's voice says, "How did he look?" White suit's voice: "Older." ---- Sting counting money. "Just one song." He asks/states. "And I'll choose it." ---- Woman's voice: "Play it." Tape goes in VCR. --- What follows is the video we all know, of Sting, still unshaven and in his slept-in clothes, singing "Fortress" in that warehouse while White Suit is filming him. It also includes a few glimpses of the woman, watching on her TV. (I don't remember if those appear in the short version.) ---- Final scene: Sting is wallpapering his room with the money, whistling, "Roxanne." It's such a funny, self-mocking story, which adds a lot to the video (which is great by itself) and I can't figure out why this version has disappeared. Orit in Israel
