The Police Will Open The Grammys

According to E! News, the greatest pop trio of the '80s will not only reunite for next month's Grammy Awards, but they will open the show.

The gig marks the first time the Police have taken the stage together since a much heralded reunion at the 2003 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction.

Famed for a fusion of reggae with elements of pop, rock and jazz, the bleach-blond threesome scored a slew of hits in the late '70s and early '80s, including "Roxanne," "So Lonely," "Walking on the Moon," "Don't Stand So Close to Me," "De Do Do Do, De Da Da Da," "King of Pain," "Invisible Sun," "Wrapped Around Your Finger," "Message in a Bottle" and their greatest hit, "Every Breath You Take."

Although the Police never graced the Grammy stage during its heyday, the band did score five trophies and Sting won another for Song of the Year for "Every Breath You Take," which beat out Michael Jackson's "Billy Jean" in 1983.

We wanted to post a video of theirs but YouTube's search is down right now. Which is odd because they're owned by Google and isn't that ironic that their search would be down, dontcha think?

So we clicked around our favorites and found Mistah Fab's "Ghost Ride It". Which makes us happy for several reasons. The first being, it's a great song. And second, it's nice to know that our tastes are in line with whoever is at MTV deciding who gets deemed "Jam of the Week".
