I have the DTS 5.1 version of Ten Summoner's Tales.

The vocals for that track are in the center channel.

My system is very clear.

It's definitely an enunciation problem. He pronounces 'upon' as 'upfon'.

Since Sting usually sings his lyrics very clearly, I think it's his way of adding a solemn sort of air to the song, or 'Tale'.

Someone help me with this one...PLEASE:

'Blinded by the light. [blank]ed up by the [blank], you know the [blank]er in the night.'
