What do you think The Police will play to open the Grammys?

[bbernardini]

Realistically, now...I think it's pretty safe to say they won't play "Be My Girl/Sally."

[LibraLiz1973]

1. Roxanne?

Can't Stand Losing You?

[Bjornsdotter]

2. Every breathe you take

...sorta fits the US right now.

Cheers

[NC_Nurse]

3. Message in a Bottle?

Spirits in the Material World....who knows?

[RegimeChange2008]

4. Fallout

And watch all the trendoids in Grammyville scratch their heads and say "what the fuck is this??"

[meegbear]

31. LOL!

They'll be saying "Who's Hon-ree"?

[AlCzervik]

5. So Lonely, that would be my pick.

or Canary in a coal mine.

[Drum]

6. I hope it's "Demolition Man"!

:D

[MonkeyFunk]

7. Something shitty n/t

[Dean Martin]

8. I vote for Invisible Sun

[Missy Vixen]

9. Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic

It was my favorite song for YEARS.

I would enjoy a little "Synchronicity," but I'm sure they're going with something "safe".

10. I hope they do "Mother" -- the worst song ever written!! (Andy Summers wrote it)

Good Lord, that song sucks.

[Manifestor_of_Light]

15. Hey, but it's in 7/4!! Doesn't he get points for creative time sigs?

The last page of the Firebird Suite by Igor Stravinsky is in 7/4.

That doesn't mean that Andy Summers can write a decent song though.

[Theres-a]

27. OMG!

I forgot about that song.Hilarious.I liked it.Maybe Andy and i were separated at birth......

[driver8]

33. You liked it??

What did you like about it?

[jpgray]

11. I hope it's "Driven to Tears"

[Theres-a]

28. Perfect

Doubtful,though.

[bridgit]

12. dunno, but you gotta know i'm ready!!!

Sting gets spit on and gets pissed :headbang:

[Theres-a]

30. Great vid!

I bookmarked that page----that's alot of stuff to watch later.Myself,i don't watch the Grammy's but I'll be setting the tivo this year to see the Police.Can't wait.

[SammyWinstonJack]

13. Fields of Gold would be nice.

[driver8]

20. That's a solo Sting song -- they definitely won't play that one.

I'm thinking "Message in a Bottle".

[ellie]

14. I love the Police

but it will probably be a stupid medley. When are the Grammy's anyway?

[Adenoid_Hynkel]

16. I hope it's not "evry breath..."

Sting never quit playing that song-even to the point of helping Puff Daddy destroy it

[KitchenWitch]

17. Da Do Do Do Da Dah Dah Dah.

[krispos42]

18. I'm going to guess some form of musical instrument

:P

[underpants]

19. Louie Louie

[Rhythm]

21. i think they should do some sort of medley...they had so many good ones.

i usually don't watch any of the award shows, but i may have to break with tradition for this one.

[KG]

22. considering how they've acted toward each other all these years 'don't stand so close to me' might

be appropriate.

[peekaloo]

23. Bombs Away.

[Zero Division]

24. Anything but "Roxanne" or "Every Breath.." I'd hope.

Far too overplayed, IMO. "So Lonely" would be my pick.

[QMPMom]

25. I have no idea but I am sure that whatever it is, there will be

a group that detests it and will say that the wrong song was chosen.

Then there will be the threads denouncing any performer that thanks the wrong deity or person. A pethora of threads will be dedicated to performers who suck and who should never be allowed to perform in public. Name-calling will ensue and additional threads will be started to continue the argument and debate.

Someone will eventually get their back up and complain that millions are starving/dying/suffering and that the Grammy Awards are a useless display of money and arrogance and the money could have been better spent elsewhere.

For me: I DON'T CARE. Sometimes the pettiness gets to me. If people can't deal with events and performances, STOP WATCHING AND COMPLAINING. Let the people who do enjoy them do so.

[Giant Robot]

26. My prediction

Roxanne followed by either Every Breath You Take or Message in a Bottle.

[carly denise pt deux]

29. it will be a montage of their most popular songs.

Carly

[Rob H.]

32. Hope it's not "Roxanne"

Since that's the one most people will be expecting, I'm hoping they play something else just to be contrarian. "Spirits in the Material World" and "Rehumanize Yourself" would be good picks, but "Murder by Numbers" would be more than appropriate, what with Commander Cuckobananas in the White House, especially this verse:

But you can reach the top of your profession
If you become the leader of the land
For murder is the sport of the elected
And you dont need to lift a finger of your hand
