Whenever I say your name IS NOT an old Police song. And Sting wrote this song for Mary J. So she really did do it justice. And its not the first time he has wrote a song for another artist.
RIodance, you are right: Sting wrote this song especially for Mary J. Blige, and he truly enjoyed the passion she put in it.
You can find comments on every song by Sting himself on his website: sting (dot) com, then hit "discography", look for the song you want to learn about, and select "artist comments" on the additional info menu.
For me, I would say that this is Stings very best song of all! Even better than Fragile, Desert Rose, Fortress Around Your Heart, Englisman in New York, We'll Be Together, and anything off of Mercury Rising or Ten Summoners Tales!
Ooooooooo, that Sting is awesomely sexy! I even love his voice!

He didn't write it at all! Huh! An 8 year old girl wrote it and he recorded it with another artist like he does

The song is great. I agree, the video is off. They don't even look like they are really singing and this is such a beautiful, passionate song too.
