Is the song romantic or evil?
The song "I'll be watching you" - It's been called the stalking song; but I really like it. Good melody & clever lyrics although romantically obsessive. Do you like it; in spite of, or maybe because of, the theme?

By the Police? It's the ultimate stalker song. Even Sting has publicly commented that he can't understand how people can listen to the lyrics and think it's a love song and want it played at their weddings.

@ChipmunkErnie Haha; it's not all that remarkable that Sting can't understand what other people think.

@Really He's definitely right on this one.

@ChipmunkErnie It's his opinionated statement about what other people should think. There's nothing "right" or "wrong" about it. He's just yet another showbiz celebrity who thinks his opinion is worth more than others.

But my question was not about Sting, his thought processes or what others think of them.
it's his very plain statement about what he wrote
No. It's his statement about being unable to understand what other people think (even though he himself said that "ambiguity is intrinsic in the song").But my question was not about Sting, his thought processes or what others think of them.
