In Your Own Words: I was 10 years old listening to top 40 on a Saturday night and I heard this bass line and it was 'Walking on the Moon'. I was hooked. Rushed out brought the single and 'Outlandos d'Amour' on tape. Saw The Police's final concert in 1984 then onto following Stings solo music. I only have one thing on my bucket list - to meet Sting. I also have Sting's signature tattooed on my arm.
