You ever hate something SO much that you try to bury it? Rocker Sting definitely has.

According to Police drummer Andy Summers, the band needed a song to add to their Zenyatta Mondatta album.

“I had this “Behind My Camel” thing,” said Summers. “I said: ‘How about doing this, then?’ And Sting said: ‘I’m not playing on that!’ I actually believe he did bury the tape in the garden,” he continued.
