Sting

[nosey]

Or go back to teaching, was he not a teacher first?

[Deuce Bigolo]

I do believe your right

I'd expect that Police Song-don't stand was about an experience teaching

PS How you can judge somebody that you've never met and only seen & heard on TV,In Concert or Tead about is beyond me

[WillieBo]

So what you're saying is :

1. Unless you meet/live/sleep with someone, you cannot possibly know or make a judgement about them ? Makes the whole literary genre of biography or autobiography a complete waste of time and effort then.

2. Sting will save the world. I go to sleep reassured.

[The Last Word]

To state the obvious, it's a case of judging them through what they do, which, for those in any creative venture, will often drift into personel judgement due to the self-reflective/revealing nature of their given medium. In Sting's case, songs and stuff. Fragile is lovely, but that car ad was deplorable and largely hypocritical considering his prior concerns. Bono - slagged off elsewhere - at least had the good grace to give his very best song (She's a Mystery To Me) to Roy Orbison.

'get with it sunhine??? '
Wasn't that KC and the sunshine band??

[jj]

I'd also be more convinced if they sold some of their multimillion Malibu multistorey megamansions, for the good of the cause.
From those to whom much is given, etc......
And I wish he'd shut up about Tantric sex- all that yogic guff is positively detumefying: a bit like his scary missus, then.

[Deuce Bigolo]

Thats just a silly WillieBo...another extreme view and you know it

By all means attack his actions & creations but leave the character assassinations to those that know him
