Just curious, what was "sinister" about the song? [[User:DanH|DanH]] 21:37, 25 December 2007 (EST)

: Sting himself called it sinister [http://www.sting.com/news/interview.php?uid=1527 here].
: Personally, I always felt the song described a sick obsession, a rallying cry for every man who stalks or overly controls his love interest who rejects him. Sting, it can be said, is a [[liberal]] and many of his pieces describe a disturbed frame of mind. He took a swipe at Reagan in discussing this most popular work!--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 22:37, 25 December 2007 (EST)
