Oddly enough, my favorite song is "Never Coming Home" Sting Dog and all! Michelle

You know that's one I like too. "Sting Dog". :D I really didn't have a problem with "Send Your Love" (and even liked the remix better--go figure), but I don't have to listen to it again for a while. It stays with you well enough. :) As for the rest of the album, it's going to take a while for me to get into it, I think. I'm having Mercury Falling Syndrome--I had that CD a year before I found a song I really wanted to listen to and could get into the album. That was the only time I ever had a problem with a Sting album. I'm thinking it was really my taste in music going through transition, and not corresponding with him. That may be the case again. On first listening a few songs sounded (dare I say) fogie-ish to me. You can imagine how horrified I felt. I thought, am I no longer aging with him, or what? Do I find myself preferring his younger sound? Then, I listened to a remix CD I received yesterday, to that fabulous jellybean b. version of "If You Love Somebody...". What I realized is that I'm not ready for a more James Taylor-ized Sting yet (I may never be). *sigh* I've avoided it for a few days, but will give it a listen again tonight. I'm positive that the songs will sound far superior live (which was what finally brought me around to MF).
