I've always known "Demolition Man" as a Science Fiction / Action movie.

Not only is it great fun...
...and it had a very appealing young Sandra Bullock and a funny Rob Schneider...
...the movie was ultimately prophetic.

When I watch it now, I can't help but notice how the upper class in the movie is to sterile and anodyne like today (and can't stand hurt feelings), the unspoken (to the upper class) underclass is struggling to get by, and I see a lot Apple's Tim Cook in the "Dr. Raymond Cocteau" character.

I’ve always enjoyed Grace Jones’ version of that song.
For a long time, I thought maybe she wrote it, or was one of the composers. Powerful and sensuous.
I was in Oostende, Belgium when I first heard it.
Part of my Navy adventures.

Big Police/Sting fan here, but I don’t love every song. This falls in that category.
