SUMNER JOINS POLICE

Submitted by ub on

Sting's son Giacomo Sumner has decided to join the Police, but not his father’s popular rock band in the United Kingdom.

Giacomo had previously earned a degree from his university in criminal justice and reportedly said this role has been his dream since childhood.

Multiple outlets including Daily Mail and The Sun reported the news this past week, noting that Giacomo joined law enforcement earlier in May and previously wrote on social media, "Becoming a police officer has been my dream since I was 13."

On a personal note, I produced News for GTM while we worked at The Source radio network. He started as a news anchor, covering major news events and eventually became the network's entertainment director. I went into television news.

But before that, the late and great George Taylor Morris worked with the police and surprised me when he initially told his story.

Later on, GTM was at classic rock station WZLX in Boston in 1996. Morris became aware of some uncanny similarities between Pink Floyd's album The Dark Side of the Moon and the movie The Wizard of Oz, in which lyrics of the album's songs are related to events taking place on the screen when the movie and album are played at the same time. Some of the connections were said to include the song "Brain Damage" appearing in time with the Scarecrow singing "If I Only Had a Brain" and the heartbeat at the end of the song "Eclipse" coming at the same time that Dorothy is listening to the Tin Man's chest. Morris played the two simultaneously and found the first few minutes "kind of interesting", but saw "an amazing series of cosmic coincidences" once Dorothy entered the house. After mentioning the synchronicity on his radio show, the phenomenon became a media sensation, reported in major newspapers, on NPR, and other outlets in the United States, and several other countries.
