I think the KLF summed it up best with their 1989 smash hit... 
YouTube - KLF - Kylie Said To Jason
When they said: 'I'm gonna leave this party now...'
Pop was dead, the underground had arrived.

Acclaimed by many as the 'perfect' pop record, even after all these years it stil holds it's own
Indeed not unlike our own Mr Ron Jeramy

Hey Bubba 
Enough of this slagging off Sting........I happen to have quite an interest in him staying favourably in the public eye due a slight 'look a like' issue.......
PS You should see the reaction my covers band gets when we start playing Roxanne or Every Breath you Take.... priceless

Jesus... can you really sing that high?
We do "Message in a Bottle" but I've had to transpose the key a whole tone down. Does go down very well, though - hardly anybody covers the Police.

Luckily the other vocalist has a gruff deeper voice so the contrast can work well.....!!
