	Just in case anyone didn't realise, it is supposed to be about a stalker. The creepiness is intentional.

	Well, mission accomplished, because that's a pretty freakin' creepy song.

	"Name the conditions under which Sting and the Police are watching you" is an awesome description.

	The creepiest thing is people have this song played at their WEDDING! I guess they dont really listen and just think it is about being head over heels in love! LOL

	@Jamessir, dang, you beat me to it. We used to make up as many senseless rhymes as we could when bored... every pipe you snake, every bone you break, every snow you flake... lawn and cake were up there too.

	I think you should add "Every cake you bake." Sting sings that line in "Love is the Seventh Wave," which would still qualify as a condition under which he watches. Always watches.

	Sting said in an interview that he was amazed at how many people thought this song was about loving devotion and didn't see the surveillance issue in it...scary that people mistake one for the other.

	I think I saw that interview. He said people had told him that they played it at their wedding. His reply: "Well, good luck."

	Well, it IS the best song about stalking that has ever been written. Sting is a genius.

	I did try every cake you bake. :) Glad to see that as a bonus; convinced me I may not have been the only one with food on the mind. Although, Sting does sing that in "Love is the Seventh Wave..."

	midnightdj, "The creepiest thing is people have this song played at their WEDDING! I guess they dont really listen and just think it is about being head over heels in love! LOL"...much like "The One I Love" by REM.

	anyone else try every leaf you rake?

	qifblackbeard:	Apr 26th, 2011 at 23:28 GMT		4 points
	I typed in bake as a joke..... what a bonus :D

	I take it no one has seen that episode of family guy knocking Sting. It's cool. Great quiz though

	I agree with others here, people who play this at weddings creep me out.

	PK9:	Apr 27th, 2011 at 00:40 GMT		3 points
	I'm pretty sure if I had gotten "stake" my first thought would be to try "vampire".

	I mean, sure its creepy, but it's a GREAT song. Oh, and i agree, but i found it hilarious how many people wikapedia-ed the song, and copied the info off of it to sound like they know a lot about it. almost every comment about the facts of the song can be found in the first two paragraphs of the ORIGINS AND SONGWRITING section of it's wikipedia page. just interesting, not being mean, I mean, i wikipedia-ed it too, but just to find out when it was made

	The fact that not everybody got "breath" and "take" makes me fear for our future.

	VT_Brian:	Apr 27th, 2011 at 02:51 GMT		7 points
	I've always felt that Don't Stand So Close to Me was a creepier song than Every Breath You Take

	"And I made us a mix CD. It's all filled with songs about people watching people. It's mostly Sting." Leslie Knope

	The full reference to this song at the end of 'Love Is The Seventh Wave' goes like this: 'Every breath you take/Every move you make/Every cake you bake/Every leg you break'. After that it's faded out too much to hear anything clearly, but it sounds like 'I break/Blimey/yelps' :D

	fun, thanks! Synchronicity, loved the album when it was first out, for months. Then started hating it. Then retroactively started hating everything The Police had done before. Only now recovering . . .
