Who's cooler, Sting or David Bowie?

DarlingBri - so you're saying Sting invented Tantric sex or he just happens to be a celebrity who knows a little bit about it? He ain't the only one, babe.

No, I'm saying Sting made awareness of tantric sex mainstream - famous, if you will - and I think that's pretty sexy. However, I also think any one else who can practice tantric sex has a very cool tool in their repetoir and I'm insanely jealous.
 
so call me a moron...

i like the way he sings more then Bowie...



if i tell you i'm impressed will that make you happy?
 
Its a shame it took Sting to make Tantric sex mainstream - or at least bring it into the mainstream consciousness. I've been aware of Tantric Sex long before I ever heard of Sting - I guess I never realized that others weren't until Sting started talking about...

By the way in an interview with Point Depot Dublin, March 19, 2000 Sting was asked if he was still into tantric sex. He said he'd given it up, but he and his wife had taken up tantric shopping instead, which he explained, is when you go shopping for five hours and buy nothing.
 
Well...here's all I'm saying...

Sting - You'd have to peel me off him with a sharp knife before I'd had my fill...

Bowie - Wouldn't fuck him for large sums of money.

No problem... MP... thought it was a coolness/talent thang.. not a who you want to fuck thang... *lol*
 
These lines have a tendency of getting blurry at Lit :)

However, as we're still discussing Sting and Bowie, I belive that technically we're still on topic :)

And I prefer Stings music to Bowie's, just for the voting record.
 
See - I like the way you said that. "I prefer"... and I prefer Bowie. Personal preference. No arguement... its when people say someone is better than someone else - instead of saying "I think this person sings better than that person" You know?

But, for the record. All around... Bowie is MUCH better than Sting... *lol*
 
It's difficult to have a conversation with an absolute statement, I've always found :)
 
Update

And...just so we're clear...

Dylan blows them both away without a doubt

(yeah yeah yeah...IMO...whatever)

Good thing, because I wouldn't be surprised if your life DID depend on it!

Ugh, that's one shag that's just too scary to contemplate <shudder>

*lol* And Frank Zappa blows them ALL away. And I believe it would be illegal - not to mention disgusting - to fuck him...
 
I like them both...though in the movie Labyrinth I find David Bowie very sexy. Shrugs Can't pick one or the other.
 
BOWIE!

Just on the fact that he has been cooler longer and more consistantly. Let alone how ground breaking he is.
 
Bowie!

Not that he has anything, well, to do with it but, Will you people see 'Velvet Goldmine' already, I mean come on!
 
Just in case...

Now, the merging of Bowie and Bing Crosby singing The Little Drummer Boy just tore at my heart. That was a beautiful and memberable duet!! Of course, I dont think I born yet...but I did see it on TV! :p
 
Sting looked good last night & I think it is cool that he brought his family to the Oscars, but Bowie is still the coolest.

Mistress, you can help me to my rocking chair, I watched the original when David sang with Bing Crosby-God I feel old today!
 
My 2 cents

Well, I like BOTH their music. However, I think a state of COOL has to do with your personality. So, let's look at both their personalities...

STING: My fiancee is a violinist and for a while was on Elton John's tour. When Sting did appearances on the tour, he was a total pompous asshole. Everyone wanted to kill him. He had a totqally "I am superior" stuck up attitude and he managed to piss off the entire orchestra.
Okay, now Tantric sex. Anyone notice that he tells everyone how good he is at Tantric sex? That is like a guy that brags about how big his dick is. You know it is actually the size of a hairy lima bean. How pompous is that? Also, if he is so good at it, why did Trudie Stylar (his wife) divorce him? Ha! So on my scale, Sting gets 1'd on coolness. Tisk tisk.

Now BOWIE: Don' think this is going to be much better. It is not. First of all, Bowie did not raise his son, Angela (ex wife) did. David has admitted that he has not even bothered to visit his own kid in years. In an interview with VH1, Bowie commented that he felt that in the 70's, his musical genius was due to him taking mass amounts of drugs. He said that "inspired" him. What? Is he fucking daft? If his musical genius is due to too much nose candy, that just doesn't cut it for me.
If anyone thinks Bowie is cool on the personality scale, check out his online art gallery. It will fucking disgust you. People shitting on canvas to make "art", a guy who drains his own blood to mix paint. That is not art, that is a psycho ward.

Okay, so if I must choose one, I guess I pick Bowie because he is the Goblin King, and the movie The Hunger is one of my favorites.

I like the music but...

Other than that, they suck.
 
Tom Petty? You're kidding right? I mean... that has got to be Sarcasm with a big S Tom fucking Petty?
 
Dill...

Why would you think I'm being sarcastic? Tom Petty is very cool, plus he's had more hits than either of those British twits (meaning Sting on his own).

;)
