So it's August, still, HOT, BLAH.... I thought it's about time for another sneek peak! Anything Goes is the theme, so...
anything can be done by any dancer! THIS dancer went to an island to cool off...
Here are some song facts for you to enjoy...

"Message in a Bottle" is a song by English rock band The Police. It was released as the lead single from their second studio album, Reggatta de Blanc (1979). Written by the band's lead singer and bassist Sting; the song is ostensibly about a story of a castaway on an island, who sends out a message in a bottle to seek love. A year later, he has not received any sort of response, and despairs, thinking he is destined to be alone. The next day, he sees "a hundred billion bottles" on the shore, finding out that there are more people like him out there.
Rolling Stone ranked it number 65 on its list of the "100 Greatest Guitar Songs of All Time".

This song is about a guy stranded on a remote island. One day he finds a bottle, puts a message in it and throws it out to sea in hopes that someone will find it and come save him. The lyrics can be seen as a metaphor for being lonely and realizing there are lots of people just like you. (thanks, Sid - Bryson City, NC)
This was the first UK #1 hit for The Police. Their first two albums were much bigger in their native England than in the US.
Sting performed this with No Doubt at halftime of the 2003 Super Bowl between the Bucs and Raiders. No Doubt lead singer Gwen Stefani came out and sang with him about midway through. Stefani inducted Police into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame later that year.
