Hi folks,
Long time no talk! Honestly not much to discuss as lute was not on my top list at all.
I guess between Sacred Love tour (was it almost 10 years ago?) and perhaps Symphonic arrangements the rest was somewhat uninspiring  for me in terms music by Our Man!

I almost lost my faith... almost!
So this album came out right on time.
This is the combination of lyrics and music that represents what Sting is and why he is still a quality mark in the modern world of pop music.
Folk music references work just fine for me!

So I'm with Bruce here - it is classic!
Loving the Soul Cage reference too!

Happy to have Our Man back on track so to speak!

Xoxo
