But having said this, I would also like to say that Sun and Moon are two aspects of a person's identity. One needs to balance the solar as well as the lunar energy in one's personality, be it a woman or a man. Moon isn't just female, just like Sun isn't just male.
Very nice song by Mr. Gordon Sumner. Isn't that his real name? Why does he sing "my mistress eyes"? Shouldn't it be "my mistress's eyes"?
Perhaps he thought of one of William Shakespear's sonnets where he wrote "My Mistress's eyes are nothing like the Sun" when he was writing this song. I love the way his voice wanders away into a mystical distance in this ode to the Moon.
A mysterious and sensual rythm but poetry also.I like the moon,always liked it.It is magical just like the stars even if the lyrics are a bit sad.A cry for love.
Man, Sting has some of the coolest lyrics that I have ever heard. And then they set those wonderful lyrics to music...genius. Simply pure genius. I mean, "My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun.My hunger for her explains everything I've done."....awesome!!!!
Actually bobilly1492, Sting wrote "Moon Over Bourbon Street" based on LeStat. Listen to the lyrics and music. You'll see, and hear, Sting had LeStat down pat. I've read that Ann Rice wanted Sting to play LeStat, but was shot down. Bad, Bad, Bad. Have you ever seen "The Bride"? Sting is Dr. Frankenstein! Great movie. Sting would be a GREAT LeStat!
I've played this album(Nothing like the Sun) so many times. Sting is an Artist. so creative w/ his melody and lyrics. thank you for sharing your gift.
@memoccho Mi hermana la luna....pero no hablo mucho espanol.Lo siento.It is beautiful though ,poetry.A nice song about the moon and night.Este hombre habla de la luna que le encanta la noche, y esta como una mujer.
i must admit, the first time i heard this song was in 95 when Vanessa Williams sang it. then I later heard the version with Sting and Herbie Hancock. this is my first time hearing this version. it's a great song, whoever is performing it.
Hearing this is wonderful. I recently heard the version he did on Herbie's album "Possibilities." I must say, it's fantastic too. It gave the song a different dimension. I love both recordings. ^_^
me gustaria que supieras que me gusta tanto o mas sting que a ti pero debes saber que tenemos el mismo agrado por su musica mandame un mensaje para platicar
What an awsome song and 3 people had the nerve to dislike this. This is the type of song that stops you dead in your tracks. So amazing!
