Karl/Lizzie can hold whatever opinions she wants Lizzie/Karl. It is writing his/her opinions on message boards that seems to get her/him into trouble it seems.

And as far as I am aware manitas at work is entitled to say to Karl/Lizzie:

Did you actually read the thread Karl? It's really very positive about the album and Sting's musical interests.

Shame that Karl/Lizzie or even Lizzie/Karl hasn't bothered to reply. Sheesh!!

Some nice tunes on the Sting album. His approach is not exactly my cup of tea, but if you want to curl up by the fire on a winter's night, I think any of these cuts will lull you into a pleasant nap.
Sting is commercializing Folk music? Good for him. Or is a lack of commercial sales the proof of integrity when it comes to traditional music?

I should also caution that the same sleep-inducing quality that would make Sting's album a pleasant accompaniment for a winter's nap could make it absolutely deadly in your car's sound system on a long drive. After two bars of The Snow it Melts the Soonest I became so relaxed that I still have the imprint of the computer keyboard on my forehead.

Extraordinary. The album has completely the opposite effect on me. I've been driving around with it on all week. :)
