Sting - Shadows In The Rain - 1985 (from the movie Bring On The Night)

When Sting embarked on his solo career, he didn't throw his tenure with the Police out the window; on this live double album from his Dream of the Blue Turtles tour, he reworks some odd selections from his old band's catalog in the expansive, jazz-inflected style of his new crew (which included saxophonist Branford Marsalis). These performances emphasize showmanship (solos, backup singers, and all) and they've got lots of crowd-pleasing moments, like the overwhelming swell of "I Burn for You" and a Caribbean clap-along on a medley of "One World" and "Love Is the Seventh Wave." But Sting's raw-steak voice has been affected by his band, too, and his phrasing on the quieter torch songs draws cleverly on jazz traditions.

@VadimShinnik1989 U'r crazy man...like this beautifull song :DDD

[ScrapMetalBomb]

Horrible....He turned another amazing Police song into an intro to the David Letterman show. Incredibly weak. Sting is a lost fish without Andy and Stuart. Really really horrible.
