Subject: Artistry Round 4: The Police (Entry Thread: June 13th)
Written By: skittlesking on 05/31/07 at 12:50 am
Also known as the Stalker song, Every Breath You Take was WMP's choice, so this round belongs not to the robbers, but "The Police" Enter by June 13th at Midnight EST (that's June 14th by 5am in the UK, 4pm in Australia or June 13th at 11pm in St. Louis, 10pm in Denver and 9pm in L.A.)

The Police are most well known for Every Breath You Take, but they are also one of the top grossing bands of all time with quite a share of creative original songs that everyone loves. They are a dominant 80s group.

Every Breath You Take
Message in a Bottle
Every Little Thing She Does is Magic
Don't Stand So Close to Me
Wrapped Around Your Finger
King of Pain
Walking on the Moon
De Do Do Do, De Da Da Da

Bring on the Night
Can't Stand Losing You

I'll be taking a little break before diving into this one...hey, 7 parodies in one month is enough!
I won't do 'King Of Pain', cuz that's where Cat comes in ;).
Oh, and The Police have achieved something else - they're one of the two bands to have been parodied, polka'd AND style parodied by "Weird Al" Yankovic. The other is REM.
