The version from The Secret Policeman's Other Ball is my favorite. Also, the version he sang when I saw him on the NLTS tour in DC stands out in my memory as well. Teri

I know some of you disagree with me, but I always thought the work that
happened as The Police still stands as better than any of the work the guys
have created as individuals.
This article isn't about them, but it does a really good job of
articulating my theories about what made the band so great:

It's October 2nd in the eastern time zone, so happy birthday to himself! I
plan to celebrate by sleeping in. ;)
Have a great weekend, everyone!
Hugs all around,

"Sting introduced 'Every Breath You Take' by way of a simple demo,
consisting of himself singing over a Hammond organ part that would
subsequently be replaced by Andy Summers's guitar (keyboards were never the
strong suit of this band). The demo had been recorded in a small eight-track
suite at North London's Utopia Studios and, according to Hugh Padgham,
provided a solid delineation of the song in terms of the main riff, the
vocal melody and the already-completed lyrics. "

I always wondered what this demo sounded like and if it still around
somewhere.
noticed this after Ross's post

where in the world did this guy get the cuts in between the tracks? they
sound like all kinds of demos that I've never heard (not that I've heard
too many)...
thanks!
