Sting & Police - When The World Is Running Down You Make The Best Of What's Still Around (Message In A Box)
Turn on my V.C.R., same one I've had for years
James Brown on the Tammy show,
Same tape I've had for years
I sit in my old car, same one I've had for years
Old battery's running down, it ran for years and years
Turn on the radio, the static hurts my ears
Tell me, where would I go? I ain't been out in years
Turn on the stereo, it's played for years and years
An Otis Redding song, it's all I own
When the world is running down
You make the best of what's still around
When the world is running down
You make the best of what's still around
Plug in my M.C.I, to excercise my brain
Make records on my own, can't go out in the rain
Pick up the telephone, I've listened here for years
No one to talk to me, I've listened here for years
When the world is running down
You make the best of what's still around
When the world is running down
You make the best of what's still around
When I feel lonely here, don't waste my time with tears
I run 'Deep Throat' again, it ran for years and years
Don't like the food I eat, the cans are running out
Same food for years and years, I hate the food I eat
When the world is running down
You make the best of what's still around
When the world is running down
You make the best of what's still around
When the world is running down
You make the best of what's still around
When the world is running down
You make the best of what's still around
@RogerF99 Maybe you're asking the wrong question. It isn't whether Summers a great guitar player or not. It is that you don't have the musical and emotional capacity to appreciate what he does. What are the things you enjoy? Britney Spears, Eddie Van Halen, farts from your 400 pound partner in the morning? Music has nothing to do with judgement it is only small minds that think this way loaded with ignorance.

I tend to agree with you. Speed for speed's sake, rather than for the music's sake, has hurt the reputation of shred's practitioners. Anyway, in Summers' case, as I said before, his style is all about economy-he is the Strunk and White of the guitar-wether those few diamond-notes be played fast or slow. Thankfully, he has held to that throughout his career.
