      Re: Uncut Article

I should think there is tension between Many-Miles-Away and Sting.  From
what I understand, it was the work of Miles that brought about Kim Turner's
lawsuit.  To make matters worse, Miles has commented in public that he had
an oral agreement with Kim that controlled everything.  Good luck proving
that.  My hunch (for what little it may be worth) is that Miles brought
about the lawsuit by being..........well, by being Miles.  Can't you just
hear him:  "Look Kim, it's not your table, blah, blah, blah."  Even Duran,
Duran couldn't stand him for more than about a week.  Can you imagine him
getting cross-examined at a trial?  He'd alienate a jury in twenty seconds!
I've never understood how Sting could, er........"Cope[    ]" with him.
Good riddance.

I don't think it was Sting's award.
While Randy Newman isn't on my playlist, I think
the song goes with the movie very well...
Yeah, astonishingly, I actually found myself
tapping my feet to it.  Newman was very humble
about it, even saying that he thought Sting
would win it.
...
And must I be the only one on this list to say
that I can't stand "Until"?
It's a difficult song both for Sting to sing
and for the listener to really get into.  Though,
I think it's okay, it's not an award-winner to
me either.  However, I think it's worlds above
that Paul M. song for Vanilla sky (personally
because I cringed when he sang it).
As for Enya, I think she should have been
nominated for the other song on the Lord of the
Rings soundtrack.  Of course, that one isn't in
English.  However, it's one of the most beautiful
songs I've ever heard.
Teri
BTW, I kept puting on the radio during boring
parts of the Oscar show--and it was one Police
song after another. :)

Subject: [Police] uncut article
hey!
i have read the cover story in uncut magazine on the
the police twice and these are my initial impressions:
FIRST, stewart and sonia are divorced? i didn't know
that/is this the case? article refers to her as his
"then-wife"
SECOND, i got the distinct impression that miles is
very bitter at the way his relationship with sting has
ended. he made a few comments about sting that, had he
still been on the payroll, i do not think he would
have made
THIRD, that sting was putting TDOTBT band/album
together while the police were finishing up
SYNCHRONICITY tour
FOURTH, sting's comment at Paris press conference for
release of "blue turtles" (parts of this press
conference are on "bring on the night") "I haven't
left The Police."
more to follow...

Well, to add my 2 cents, I'm glad Randy Newman won. Just because Sting was
=
nominated, doesn't mean he deserves to win! Kate and Leopold was a =
"throwaway" movie, and I'm sorry, but "Until" didn't and still doesn't do
=
anything for me. It's not at all catchy at its best and awkward at worst.
=
Do you find yourself humming it throughout the day? Hardly. And it's too =
reminiscent of "If I could save time in a bottle..."
I was more interested in the color of Sting's hair than the actual song. =
That doesn't make me less of a Sting fan, it just means that I think he =
has done and can do better work.
Randy Newman's songs are always catchy, funny, appropriate to the movie, =
lyrically smart and unique. Sure, maybe after 16 nominations, it was a =
sympathy win, but it was also a well-deserved win for a catalog of works.
=20
I can't believe anyone honestly thought Sting would win, frankly. We are =
huge fans, but 99% of the rest of the world can take him or leave him. =
There were probably greater numbers of Faith Hill, Enya and Paul McCartney
=
fans rooting for their folks.=20
I guess many Sting fans were disappointed, but I wasn't. I'd rather see =
him win deservedly.

and so do I, I had the nice opportunity to talk with some Clannad

Until is ... well, just sucks anyway.

Okay,
Here is where I stand on this.  I would much rather them give the award to
Randy Newman for a song that truely fit with the movie than to Paul
McCartney
just because of who he is.  I do think that Until... fit the mood of "Kate
&
Leopold" but the song from Monster's Inc. actually had lyrics that
propelled
the story line, even if that movie is for children (which might actually
even
make the songwriting process harder..)
Now if it was an award given for performance and not songwriting I would
have
to say Sting should have walked away with it.  Because you know, he was
the
best looking one there and I thought he sounded pretty good even thought
you
could hear the nervous quiver in his voice.
Just my 2 cents.
Heather

hey!
okay, now i feel bad. Uncut is a British magazine. i
live in new york so it is available here but may not
be elsewhere. www.uncut.net is the website, it has
contact info so, for those interested, you can get it
from the magazine.
  i had to do this when sting was on the cover of Bass
Player a few years ago...
