A quote from a review:
>Where is the Sting in this 'Love'?

that Sting once fronted during rock's new wave, the Police.
I am getting so sick of the comparisons of who and what Sting is now to his
Police days. Why? How many of us are the same people, even remotely, we were
20 Years Ago?! (Much less ten or even five!)

Thank god for growth, maturity, creativity, change... We should learn from
our past and use it in new and exciting ways. Not everyone can agree on the
intellectual, emotional, and spiritual response to this new album (and album
is correct since its general definition is a collection of something), but I
applaud the continuation of growth, maturity, creativity, change (...and no
one said it absolutely had to be better each and every time, although I
personally enjoy this album).

Sorry for the rant. I am hoping, however, someone out there in
Sting-fan-land agrees with me.
Peace, Love, & Sting,
Jen
