Hey @uwelang
Brilliant stuff. Thanks for posting.
It's great to see somebody talking about a band that I loved all those years ago. They were pretty special and IMO produced varied music for most peoples taste. I always enjoyed the creative tension between Stuart and Sting. The could be hilariously childish.
A couple of other tracks to mention are:
Roxanne, So Lonely, Can't Stand Losing You, Walking on the Moon and my favourite track, Don't Stand So Close To Me, with it's brilliant intro.
You are correct that Sting has gone on to sell millions of records and have huge success on his own. Englishman In New York and Fields of Gold are my choices but there are quite a few.
Thanks for making me think about them again.
Cheers, Gaz.
