I did buy it. I'll save everyone the "typical it sucks" review and get to what you all might find interesting. It pretty much takes Sting's lyrical verses out and replaces them with very similar rap lyrics. A modified chorus exists still. Who exactly are they marketing this to? This won't appeal at all to the middle-aged demographic that was at the concert I went to here in San Antone. Perhaps the label thinks that gangstas, bitches and ho's will rush out and buy Sacred Love. But what exactly do you think the chances of that happening are? I find the whole thing bizarre. Wow, Sting - you're hip! Piece. Rich

I just noticed that these are available as exclusives on Apple's iTunes music store:
Sting & Twista - Stolen Car (Take Me Dancing) [B. Recluse Mix - New Bridge Version] 3:05
Stolen Car (Take Me Dancing) [B. Recluse Mix - Instrumental] 3:03
Even with a free song credit thanks to Pepsi I can't bring myself to buy it. I'll probably just impulsively buy the import single when I see in in the record store just to have the CD :)
