I guess I know what you're trying to say. But 'Synchronicity' and 'Spirits In The Material World' mostly left the reggae sound behind. | |

As a HUGE Police fan, no, everything they make didn't sound the same. It's you. | |

It's just you. And I'm not even a fan. There are three sides to every story. My side, your side, and the truth. And no one is lying. Memories shared serve each one differently | |

But that "honky" shit is, well, kinda questionable. Fantasy is reality in the world today. But I'll keep hangin in there, that is the only way. | |

"blanc" meaning "white" is different to "honky" It's like me as a white guy substituting word "black" for "nigger", in my opinion. I wouldn't do it, and I don't expect you to either. This is not an exit | |

I love The Police. But my favorite "officer" has always been Stuart Copeland. That guy is one of the best percussionists... EVER. | |

I think The Police were a fine singles band but album wise i don't think they were good enough to deserve the reputation they have. They're great in small doses though. | |

Damn isn't there a genre of country called Honkytonk. | |

their hits are great.. i never got much into those tracks that never made it too popular, but thats only a few. | |

They only have 5 albums... they didn't have time to cover much ground. I think they're great. Their sound is more unique and distinctive than a lot of other famous bands... | |

Damn isn't there a genre of country called Honkytonk. I'm not even sure white people are offended by the term. dave just thinks he's owed something for "nigger". In any case I was talking about music; not people. test | |

I know you have your reasons for trying to throw the police under the bus, but er uh,
Sting has always been hot! ( He had a lazy band tho.....) Canary in a Coalmine, So Lonely, Sync I & II, Ghost in the Machine!!!!! even hotter when he hooked up with the jazz greats, kenny kirkland, wyton marsailas etc. on that Bring on the Night album. THE B EST BE YOURSELF AS LONG AS YOUR SELF ISNT A DYCK[/r]
