Wow! The only thing missing was Sting himself in the box! What a wonderful, thoughtful thing for him to do! For Christmas I got a DVD player but no Sting DVD's (hubby was actually going to wing my copy out the door if he found out I bought one for myself ahead of time---which i did!) I now have to sneak to watch it. You'd think i was watching porn or something! Consider yourself VERY lucky he did that for and seems to share your passion! Happy New Year! Michelle "shirit katz"

New Year surprise ever! 01/01/2002 06:33 AM
Hey mates! Happy New Year! I wanted to tell you all about an amazing surprise I got a few days ago from my boyfriend? apparently he's been working on this "project" for about 2 months without me knowing anything at all about it! All his friends helped? :) so, you must wonder what this project is is all about? Well, let's call it a "Sting Pack". At first I just saw a nice big box wrapped very nicely (it was made with "Photoshop", and it looks amazing, with sting's nicest pictures and all) with Sting all smiley on it :) I opened it gently and was shocked! Inside it were lot's of components: first ? Sting's DVD from the Brand New Day Tour (live from the universal amphitheatre), then was a "home made" video of "Sting ? All This Time" at Tuscany ? my boyfriend recorded it alone (it was shown a while ago in the Israeli 3'd channel, so that's where he got it recorded from) ? the video looks exactly like the original package! And now comes the big surprises! I saw 2 CD's, both wrapped very nicely with nice Sting's pictures. On one written "Sting ? 1979-2001 Digital Video+" and it contains the "Brand New Day Tour" video once more, only now can be seen on the computer and a little "site" my boyfriend made with help of his friends ? containing Sting's biography, the lyrics for whole the songs ever (even about 70 miscellaneous that some of them even I didn't hear before!!), a nice Photo Gallery, and a cute interview that was published only this last weekend in the Israeli newspaper "Yediot Achronot" (the interviewer was an Israeli guy and it was quite interesting hearing why Sting didn't come to Israel?) ? that was the first CD. Second one called "Sting ? 1979-2001 Digital Audio" containing ALL Sting's songs ever on mp3's!!! from all albums he had, even with the
police's and the new All This Time live at Tuscany, and also those 70
miscellaneous I told u about? So I think I have all Sting's songs now :) so
now comes the biggest surprise as I see it ? a book with a nice blue
binding
and on it in gold written STING and inside written "Sting's Lyrics ? The
Ultimate Collection" - my boyfriend printed all his lyrics on nice "old"
pages (like in a real book) and with all the lyrics of Sting and it simply
looks great!!! I thought he bought it, but I never saw this thing in my life so I was surprised and then he told me he did it on his own?!!! Anyway, I just HAD to tell you guys, since I knew only the real fans would know how to appreciate this kind of surprise! It was definitely the biggest thing I ever got!
Have a very Happy New Year!!!
