For no reason at all this song just popped into my head…. “You consider me the young apprentice Caught between the Scylla and Charybdis Hypnotized by you if I should linger Staring at the ring around your finger” open.spotify.com/track/400ZJA... - ThreadSky

For no reason at all this song just popped into my head….

“You consider me the young apprentice
Caught between the Scylla and Charybdis
Hypnotized by you if I should linger
Staring at the ring around your finger”

In this context, Scylla and Charybdis honestly seem nice tho

There are no "lesser of two evils" here though.

They are both evil.

Sting is a gossipy time traveler!

smdonnelly.bsky.social•4 days ago

Sting as a future/past incarnation of The Doctor? I'd buy it!

😂😂😂

It’s haunting.

One Sting's guru songs. Which always point two ways since I do think he has done his share of searching.

The Police were practically the biggest band on earth when I was in College. They hold up!

kietams.bsky.social•4 days ago

I don’t think I’ve ever known that the words were Scylla and Charybdis 🤣🤣🤣

Sting and The Police are some the few rock performers with a healthy vocabulary.

🎶...I have only come here seeking knowledge...🎶
As far as ear worms go, there's few par excellence than Police lyrics...

Now I’ll be humming this all evening! One of my absolute favorites albums.

Good song!

I still love this quote from the late, beloved music magazine "Trouser Press":

"Sting issues summer reading list for new album."

clarajeffery.bsky.social•4 days ago

There actually is a reason but god bless the earnest Police fans jumping in to reply, perhaps ignorant of the single greatest social media rumor of the Trump 2 era

gedalia.bsky.social•4 days ago

Which rumor?

kevdog.bsky.social•4 days ago

I’d only chime in to say I saw this tour when I was in college.

davetait.bsky.social•4 days ago

This isn't the police who should be on the case, but we'll take what we can get...

Forget The Police. . . Try Cyril Neville

Was jammin on synchronicity last months after 15 years of not hearing it. Such fantastic engineering & production, you can hear everything Copeland touches, guitar plucks, and no one to this day tries to do what Andy did with his sound. Ppl should sample it .

POLICE songs are earworms with repeatable applicability.

Murder by Numbers is a good one.

Hopefully 47 gets his 86 soon before ... things get even worse.

leeivyca.bsky.social•4 days ago

Thanks for sharing. Now I need to listen to the whole album again.

lisapierce.bsky.social•4 days ago

Saw him Sunday night in Bend, and he did this one-excellent!
