As is most of Sting's work...
Has nothing to do with growing soft for me.
Personal fave: All This Time.

sting is one of the greatest artists of the past 30 years. I
saw this documentary on how he created his music when he was
in the police, inspiring stuff, I have nothing but respect
for his musical talents.

yeah saw that too. I'm not much for "the police"'s work, but
I like the styles he's playing with, and the sound he
creates with experimenting with music combinations.

If you listen to to the later "the police" work, I think you
hear an evolution towards the early "Sting" work.
And I just love hearing bands/musicians evolve.
And I've seen other documentaries than the one you're
talking about, and I can say one thing: the man is
interesting!

I like Sting, that much maligned man. But I love his work
with the Police a lot more than his solo stuff... especially
early police, when it was a little rawer.

Whenever I think of Sting, I think of that episode of the
Simpsons where Bart is trapped in the well and Sting comes
to help dig him out. And he takes of his shirt. Sting's a
handsome guy.

I love Sting... love that song All This Time, and I really
like Fields of Gold, and They Dance Along... really need to
buy a sting album...

and it has nothing to do, or should have anything to do,
with going soft... it's just another style of music... so
what if he's considered a "pop" act... some pop is good...
pop is a broad term, which simply refers to popular, not
bubble gum pop crap... good music can be popular...

"good music can be popular"

that has been proven from time to time.
Today it's getting more and more uncommon though.

I agree about it getting more uncommon... I mean, I
absolutely love 80's pop... it's seriously some of my
favorite and most fun music to listen to... a lot of the pop
from the 80's, I guess most of what is still played now, was
good... but most of the pop on the radio and stuff now does
suck... all the stupid, so called, "bling-bling" rap and
r'n'b just annoys me... but I do still hear stuff I enjoy
on the radio, and mostly tv... I watch much more music a
lot...
