Canada News I think I speak for some in here when I say fuck blender magazine Bruce Greenwood <bruce.greenwood@rogers.com> wrote: You can't take stuff like that seriously....Sting is just one of those people that some people love to hate, and those people pick on qualities that they are envious of. This survey is a result of just that. Even casual music fans are impressed with his lyrics, and normally The Police and Sting have been praised by the critics for being cerebral. Complaining that he "...coopt[ed] the works of Chaucer, St. Augistine, and Shakespeare." Is pretty funny. In the words of Kanye West, "Uhh....Uh." Interestingly, I heard about this earlier today on CBC radio. You could tell that the host of the program thought it was a bit off that Sting would top this list. He said something like "I imagine there will be a lot of upset people across Canada when they hear this," and he proceded to play a bit of "Russians".

But we all know there 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] On Behalf Of Jo-Ann Sent: October 9, 2007 1:15 PM To: police@mailman.xmission.com Subject: [Police] Yahoo!
