Disturbed Shares Video For Their Cover Of Sting’s ‘If I Ever Lose My Faith In You’

Disturbed have unveiled a new cover of the Sting classic, If I Ever Lose My Faith In You, and have also released a video for their version of the classic track.

“We have loved this song for a long time, and even though it was released in 1993, it seems strangely applicable to today’s world,” the band said in a statement.  They added, “The song is about losing faith, and might initially sound pessimistic, but it’s about the importance and power of personal relationships, and how they can save you and provide solace in an increasingly confusing world.”

Amy Schumer Reveals She Has Lyme Disease

Amy Schumer revealed she’s been diagnosed with Lyme disease.

The comedian, 39, updated fans about her health with a post on social media. Schumer wrote on Instagram: “Anyone get LYME this summer? I got it and I’m on doxycycline. I have maybe had it for years. Any advice? Can you have a glass of wine or 2 on it? I know to stay out of the sun. I’m also taking these herbs from cape cod called lyme-2. I also want to say that I feel good and am excited to get rid of it.”

According to the CDC, Lyme disease is “caused by the bacterium Borrelia burgdorferi and rarely, Borrelia mayonii. It is transmitted to humans through the bite of infected blacklegged ticks.” Common symptoms include fever, headache, fatigue and sometimes a characteristic “bull’s-eye” skin rash.
