What about the time that Sting commented on the reworking of the theme to "Mission Impossible"? Not remembering the exact quote, I believe he was unimpressed (putting it mildly) with U2's version, saying something to the effect that any idiot could put a song back into 4/4 time. [Personally, I agree with the idea that the song was slaughtered from the original mixed meter to the monkey-esque redo.] An interesting comment to make if in fact they are good buddies. I don't think there is any love lost... does someone else know otherwise? Of course, I'll never forget the rumor that Sting was the only one in the SatNiteLive audience that didn't stand up for the ovation for Paul McCartney. :) Good to be back on the list!
