I certainly had never heard of Blender magazine, and really don't care too now, but I don't read magazines, usually a complete waste of good paper! Any updates on Stings laryngitis? ~ Jo-Ann ~ Date: Tue, 9 Oct 2007 15:02:29 -0700From: dolanbalin@yahoo.comTo: bruce.greenwood@rogers.com; ross@rossviner.com; police@mailman.xmission.comSubject: RE: [Police] Yahoo! Canada News Story - Sting tops list ofworstlyricists - Yahoo! Canada News I also heard this article over the airwaves this morning, and at first I was upset, then the more he read the more I laughed... Was it Blender mag? who the f*** cares?! I always find it humorous when people try and pass off something like this as "factual" when music (as an art form) is nothing but subjective! And millions and millions of folks apparently disagree with this writer... I sure as hell do.

This survey is a result of just that. Evencasual music fans are impressed with his lyrics, and normally The Police andSting have been praised by the critics for being cerebral. Complaining thathe "...coopt[ed] the works of Chaucer, St. Augistine, and Shakespeare." Ispretty funny. In the words of Kanye West, "Uhh....Uh."Interestingly, I heard about this earlier today on CBC radio. You couldtell that the host of the program thought it was a bit off that Sting wouldtop this list. He said something like "I imagine there will be a lot ofupset people across Canada when they hear this," and he proceded to play abit of "Russians".Cheers,Bruce-----Original Message-----From: police-bounces@mailman.xmission.com[mailto:police-bounces@mailman.xmission.com] On Behalf Of Ross VinerSent: Tuesday, October 09, 2007 4:53 PMTo: police@mailman.xmission.comSubject: RE: [Police] Yahoo!

But we all knowthere are too many brilliant moments to count.-----Original Message-----From: police-bounces+ross=rossviner.com@mailman.xmission.com[mailto:police-bounces+ross=rossviner.com@mailman.xmission.com] OnBehalf Of Jo-AnnSent: October 9, 2007 1:15 PMTo: police@mailman.xmission.comSubject: [Police] Yahoo!
