Loved the show. I think that's the most I've ever seen him open up. I'm sure it's all for the book promo, but it was nice. Great camera work as well, I don't think they got a bad shot of him for the whole delicious hour. I can't wait to read the book, and 2btrudie, you're oh, so right! Who wouldn't want to be her!

Yes, Oprah mentioned that Sting sold 40 million albums with The Police and another 45 million as a solo artist. Also, Sting played EBYT and Roxanne.

I do think it noteworthy, that the Police sold most of their over the span of 6 years. Sting as a solo artist, has had 18 years. -----Original Message----- From: police-bounces@mailman.xmission.com [mailto:police-bounces@mailman.xmission.com] On Behalf Of Tara and Bruce Sent: October 29, 2003 1:44 PM To: foxie; police Subject: Re: [Police] Sting on Oprah Yes, Oprah mentioned that Sting sold 40 million albums with The Police and another 45 million as a solo artist.

The raw numbers in themselves mean relatively little. I'd like to see a proper graph of sales versus time progression, to see at which point Sting started selling more than the Police. I'd also be interested to see how the "Sting & the Police" compilations were counted. There's a whole bunch more stuff than can be said about Sting vs. The Police (I mean this in a comparative sense, and I don't mean to imply any sense of antagonism), but if people are going to compare Stings solo with The Police, then I'd like them to restrict to recent times. It would be genuinely interesting to work out which songs in a live set got the greatest audience reaction, Sting or Police songs; hell, I'd be interested in seeing the figures for back-catalogue sales, assuming we had a year where the figures weren't sullied by re-issues and other promotional gambits.
