yeah, it really depends on the person's taste... but i like how sting is able to re-arrange his songs and turn them into something different every time he does them again... do you know the version of roxanne he does only with jason rebello? i totally love his new timings and the new mood of this approach
I guess it comes down to personal taste...but I really hate the way he did the song here. Especially at about 2:17. He sings it like it's some kind of jazz song at a nightclub! Compare this to the original and it's completely different. He ruined the whole mood of the song. The original had a much more primordial, naturalistic sound to it.
ugh....why does Sting have to turn everything into some kind of jazz crap now? He ruins his own songs! Compare this to the video of the live version in 1983.
