snuffbox Posted October 19, 2006 Report Posted October 19, 2006 http://today.reuters.com/news/articlenews....=rss&rpc=22 Someone should tell Sting that there is actually music beyond the radio dial. And that he has no room to talk.
Cheech Tremendous Posted October 19, 2006 Report Posted October 19, 2006 Sting would be another person who's a hero. The music he's created over the years, I don't really listen to it, but the fact that he's making it, I respect that.
the max Posted October 19, 2006 Report Posted October 19, 2006 Sting's awful lute songs bore me. To see To hear To touch To kiss To DIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Gary Floyd Posted October 19, 2006 Report Posted October 19, 2006 Yes, and Sting is the be all, end all when it comes to great music.
Youth N Asia Posted October 19, 2006 Report Posted October 19, 2006 Sting is boring, says Youth N Asia
Annabelle Posted October 19, 2006 Report Posted October 19, 2006 not enough people talk about outlandos d'amour. what a superb album. the rest of the police's stuff is overated filler amongst their greatest hits.
Brett Favre Posted October 19, 2006 Report Posted October 19, 2006 Sting would be another person who's a hero. The music he's created over the years, I don't really listen to it, but the fact that he's making it, I respect that.
Murmuring Beast Posted October 19, 2006 Report Posted October 19, 2006 BUt but but but The Police are better than The Doors!!!!!!!!!!!
Annabelle Posted October 19, 2006 Report Posted October 19, 2006 BUt but but but The Police are better than The Doors!!!!!!!!!!! exactly.
Guest Felonies! Posted October 19, 2006 Report Posted October 19, 2006 not enough people talk about outlandos d'amour. what a superb album. the rest of the police's stuff is overated filler amongst their greatest hits. I think Synchronicity is pretty good, but yeah, there is a big dropoff between their best songs and the rest.
Cheech Tremendous Posted October 19, 2006 Report Posted October 19, 2006 BUt but but but The Police are better than The Doors!!!!!!!!!!! exactly. Sometimes I need to be reminded why I stay out of the music folder. Thanks.
Guest Felonies! Posted October 19, 2006 Report Posted October 19, 2006 But you'd fit in perfectly with patronizing dickishness like that!!!
Youth N Asia Posted October 19, 2006 Report Posted October 19, 2006 BUt but but but The Police are better than The Doors!!!!!!!!!!! exactly. Exactly, except...no, not at all
Edwin MacPhisto Posted October 19, 2006 Report Posted October 19, 2006 This is like Joe Buck complaining about sports announcers. I like the Police more than the Doors myself, but wouldn't put either up that high.
Gary Floyd Posted October 19, 2006 Report Posted October 19, 2006 I wouldn't rip on The Doors. Otherwise, Jim Morrison will come back from the grave and whip out his dick.
vivalaultra Posted October 19, 2006 Report Posted October 19, 2006 But at least Jim Morrison is compelling and interesting as a person and a personality (for better or for worse). Sting doesn't even have that going for him. One of the benefits of dying young...you have less time to get old and boring.
Giuseppe Zangara Posted October 19, 2006 Report Posted October 19, 2006 I often confuse the Doors and Police with each other, so I can understand the direction this thread is going.
Guest Agent of Oblivion Posted October 20, 2006 Report Posted October 20, 2006 I'm working on building up a case for the Doors. They really do have some excellent songs. I'm giving the Velvet Underground yet another chance before picking the worst fight in the history of the music folder.
vivalaultra Posted October 20, 2006 Report Posted October 20, 2006 I can't stand the sound...of the Velvet Underground. Yeah, but seriously...the Doors have some really good songs and from the video I've seen and the tracks I've heard they were a really good live band...and one of my favorite scenes from The Simpsons involves Homer wandering sadly around town singing "The End". When he gets to the "weird scenes inside the goldmine" part, I bust out laughing.
snuffbox Posted October 20, 2006 Author Report Posted October 20, 2006 Who in their right mind would say the Police is better than the Doors? The fucking Police!
Rendclaw Posted October 20, 2006 Report Posted October 20, 2006 Sting has always been an arrogant prick throughout his career, despite his attempt at re-invention through the "discovery" of Tantra. Its like Madonna and Kabbalah. Same exact thing. That being said, I could listen to Synchronicity until I am old and gray. Motherfuck Jim Morrison. "I'm drunk, I'm nobody. I'm drunk, I'm famous. I'm drunk, I'm fucking dead." -Denis Leary on Jim Morrison and the Doors movie.
Giuseppe Zangara Posted October 20, 2006 Report Posted October 20, 2006 I'm working on building up a case for the Doors. They really do have some excellent songs. I'm giving the Velvet Underground yet another chance before picking the worst fight in the history of the music folder. I've said all I wanted to say about the Doors and am not interested in arguing taste. The lengthy discussion I've engaged in today re GNR has nothing to do with whether or not I think they're good.
Guest Agent of Oblivion Posted October 20, 2006 Report Posted October 20, 2006 Hey, I didn't say I was picking a fight with you.
Epic Reine Posted October 20, 2006 Report Posted October 20, 2006 The Police were an awesome band. I wish I could say the same for Sting's solo stuff though.
Giuseppe Zangara Posted October 20, 2006 Report Posted October 20, 2006 Hey, I didn't say I was picking a fight with you. Hey, bro, I know how to infer.
JangoFett4Hire Posted October 20, 2006 Report Posted October 20, 2006 When the Doors were on, they were really good (see the first album), but they could be terribly inconsistent. Cars Hiss By My Window is one of the worst songs I've ever heard.
Murmuring Beast Posted October 20, 2006 Report Posted October 20, 2006 Then you've had quite the sheltered life.
JangoFett4Hire Posted October 20, 2006 Report Posted October 20, 2006 Nope. Unless I'm thinking of the wrong song. Is that the one with the fake harmonica?
Guest Agent of Oblivion Posted October 21, 2006 Report Posted October 21, 2006 "Cars Hiss.." actually might be one of my favorite Doors songs. That's their best album, anyway. Fat drunk Jim is better than gyrating acid Jim.
