OT: Question for FALLOUT

[Bry]

Andy once said that he wished Sting had sung Someone To Talk To. Has Fallout ever performed it? It would be cool to hear what it might have sounded like if Sting had agreed. Perhaps Andy would approve too.

I love the way Andy sings that song... I love the song itself! Besides, he wrote it about some very personal shit. I'm not sure why he feels that way, but whatever. I'd be curious to hear Sting's take on it though.

Andy does a fantastic job on this song. It chokes me up when I hear it. I am glad he sang it instead of Sting. Not sure it would have the same impact on me. Who knows?
Yeah add this to your setlist and see how it goes.

Its a great song.
And to my ears its all about Kate and the troubles they had at that time (1981-1982)

Now they're married again aren't they?
From reading One Train Later, he really really needed someone to talk to....
I'm almost certain that isn't even Sting on Bass.
Why would he play bass and refuse to sing?
Hell he sang Ms Gradenko which isn't as good. (sorry......I know....)




She was a person I just couldn't see
And I tried to make her what she couldn't be
We tried and we tried, but of course in the end
I drove her crazy and right 'round the bend
Now it's too much to just sit here and cry
I can't be seen with a tear in my eye
Why am I standing right next to the phone?
When I kept on saying I must be alone

I love you, why didn't I say that before
I guess that it's safe now she's walked through the door
It's hard when you know that you've got to go on
Feeling so weak and pretending you're strong
I didn't see her I only felt me
And one day I'll learn just which part of me bleeds
Now that she's gone I know she was great
But I fucked it up and now it's too late

what i'd love to do is play it with Andy.

we do have a show on 9/5 where we're doing a lot of the weird stuff.

interesting
