I’m definitely with you on a new album of original songs, Daly! We’ll have to keep our fingers crossed that once the tour with the Royal Philharmonic Concert Orchestra is over, Sting will get back to songwriting!

Enrique, I have found good luck with Sting concert tickets through the Sting Fan Club. They do a fabulous job with presales for most concerts to the fan club before they go on sale to the general public. There is an annual charge to join, but I find it well worth the cost and renew my membership annually. You can find more information at https://signup.sting.com/ . Good luck and I hope that you do get to see Sting in concert!

Hi everybody, I am from Nicaragua and I am a huge Sting fan, got all of his albums (The Police included), even vinyls, but I ve never seen him live. Now that is 2010 I am really sure Sting will release a new album with new songs, can u tell me how can I see Sting live? I mean what is the best way for me to get tickets to go and see him touring in the US? Thanks so much for any info.

MD, thanks for your comments. I can certainly understand where you are coming from and suspect there are many other Sting fans out there with the same opinion. I’m eagerly anticipating the next new Sting release, which should go back to his traditional rock/pop roots. And it can’t happen soon enough!

I am half-way through the album and I must agree with the minority, a very dissapointing album. What a waste of money. I really expected something good after such a long time without an album. I can’t make out half the time the words he is singing. I think he’s days are numbered as a singer.

Kathy,
To say that some rock songs are simple i.e., easy to play, is true. To say that rock is “simplistic” is a bit of a slight to the form. There is, though, elegance in simplicity, Mozart will tell you that. Sting’s music has never been complicated, only unique and impeccably crafted. His music is sometimes serious and often playful. I suppose therein lies another Mozart reference…… .

I, too, heard Sting’s song on Letterman last night. I like everything he does because of its eminent smoothnes with background players beyond reproach. Always a class act, yet there must come a time in a musicians career when he decides to forge new ground or rest on his laurels.The question is what do people want to hear? The answer is new Sting for the 21st century, just dive right in. I vote for a little more space age R&B dirtection. I could listen to that for “A Thousand Years”. You dig?

Watching David Letterman tonight I was delighted to hear that Sting would be introducing the “Winter” song. I usually use TV to fall asleep as background, being that my Bday is 12/21 the first day of winter and the fact it was Sting, hip fracture, terrible summer, blah, blah, blah, I turned off my computer. Wanting to hear. I turned up the TV to listen to an artist I have always been touched in my heart with the music of his will… to get through mine.
Thanks Sting!
