Incubus and the Police - Roxanne (iTunes)

At KROQ's Acoustic Christmas Incubus brought 2 members of the Police on stage and played a few songs, including Roxanne. Now Incubus is offering Roxanne through iTunes (not there yet, but I heard it on the radio this morning). All proceeds from the sale of Roxanne are going to Roxanne's Home for the Holidays. On KROQ they are coordinating an extreme makeover style home for this girl and her 3 siblings. So, a great song will be available for a good price, plus all the proceeds go to a really great cause! So, everyone buy it once it becomes available!

That's certainly a strange...collaboration. Have they been playing it on KROQ?

I gotta hear this.

I haven't actually heard the song on KROQ, though they keep talking about it. I certainly intend to buy it, and the way that they talk about the song it sounds great!

It isn't on iTunes as of today... perhaps tomorrow.

not really. incubus has covered Police songs many times over the years, mostly portions as interludes in other songs. They're big fans. They(incubus and the police-sting) covered roxanne, message in a bottle, and De Do Do Do, De Da Da Da. it sounded amazing.

Yeah, they've been doing De Do Do Do, De Da Da Da as an interlude during Stellar on this tour (including on the Alive at Red Rocks DVD).

The song's up on iTunes.

And I gotta admit, from the short clip that's available, it ain't bad at all.
