The Police vs The Who
Who's better in your opinion?


Very tough, I debated this earlier and couldn't fully decide.

Seriously, this isn't even close. The Who destroy The Police.

Tommy (the film) is pretty much the best thing that has ever existed in the history of things that have existed.

Re: The Police vs The Who
Kind of a random poll pairing. I went with the Who. I've never found myself to be crazy for the Police, but as of late I'm really starting to enjoy some of their more reggae style stuff from the old days.

Re: The Police vs The Who
just think of how unsuccessful the CSI Television series (Miami, Vegas, NY) would be without the Who?

I own about a dozen Who Albums, don't own one Police album.

You should change that because every Police album is great.

Those shows would do just fine with or without The Who. NCIS is a successful program for God's sake, and to me, that show is as bad as a procedural series can get.

People love shitty television.

The Police. They're great (especially old stuff). Sting is a great songwriter and Stuart Copeland is an awesome drummer!
