Message in a bottle
Reggatta de blanc
It's alright for you
Bring on the night
Deathwish
Walking on the moon
On any other day
The bed's too big without you
Contact
Does everyone stare
No time this time

The name of this record refers to the fact that The Police were blond, and played white reggae and punk music of the "Bank Generation".

We love this album; "Message in a bottle" is certainly one of the best songs of the band, Andy said that it is the best song of is life ... soo!!Lol
"Walking on the moon" with the sound of the bass, and the famous "Yoo yoo" it is so excellent!!

Discography – The Police – Outlandos D'amour (1978)

Discography – The Police – Outlandos D'amour (1978)
The first recording of The Police, you can hear an extract of each songs :

Next To You
So Lonely
Roxanne
Hole In My Life
Peanuts
Can't Stand Losing You
Truth Hits Everybody
Born In the 50's
Be My Girl Sally
Masoko Tanga

For first album, Miles wanted to combine two opposite elements and originally came up Outlaws of Love, but was dissatisfied with that. Then the name became Outlandos of Love, and to make the title sound more exotic, he used French (he he!: P): Outlandos d'Amour!

Now some information about this greatest hit: Roxanne!! At the beginning of the song, you can hear a strange piano chord, and then Sting laughing. In fact, during the voice recording, Sting accidentally sat on the piano just behind him!! Lol
According to a survey, we don't know if it is serious, this is the song that is the most sung under the shower!!
OK, now you can see why this song made Sting hates riding elevators, it's an extract of "VH1 Storytellers" very good video!!Click here

Sting's personal life

Sting's personal life
He has been married twice, first to Frances Tomelty (1976-1982) and currently to Trudie Styler whom he married in August, 1992 (the same day of my birthday .... Ok it is not very important! lol). Sting has 6 children (big family), 2 with Frances and 4 with Trudie: Elliot Paulina, Giacomo, Jake, Joseph, Katherine Fushia, and Mickey!!( Thanks Micra I forgot!!)

Sting's mother, Audrey, died of cancer while he was in Montserrat recording "Nothing like the sun", he refused to go to the funeral, because he didn't want to turn it into a media circus, and he dedicated his album to her.
Sting's father, Ernie, died of cancer shortly thereafter. Sting was in Brazil for the Nothing like the sun Tour. He dedicated his next album to him: The Soul Cages.

Where does he live?

Good question no? He owns an estate in Wiltshire, England called Lake House where Ten Summoner's Tales and Mercury Falling were recorded. He also owns a home in the London area, an apartment in NY City, a home in Malibu (which you can see on the DVD "Inside the song of Sacred Love"), in California and a villa in Tuscany (which you can see on the DVD "All this time"), Italy! So now Sting we want a home in France please!!: P

Sting's life
Sting before The Police :

B
efore becoming lead singer of the band The Police, Sting was a school teacher (the dream to have a teacher like him!: P) at St Paul's Roman Catholic First School in Cramlington, England. Before joining The Police, Sting was in many Jazz bands like the Phoenix Jazz Band, the Newcastle big band, Last Exit and others.

His real name:

Gordon Matthew Sumner and he hates that we call him like this, pay attention to that! Lol

Why Sting like nickname ? :

One day, Sting came to a rehearsal in a striped soccer sweater and the trombone player, Gordon Solomon, remarked that Sting looked like a bee. This led to him being called Stinger-which eventually became Sting! It's funny no?

His birthday:

He was born in Wallsend, Northumberland on October 2, 1951... 53 years old, and always too sexy!! :P

What instruments does Sting play? :

I can say so many!!Lol He plays: guitar, bass guitar, saxophone, piano, harmonica, mandolin and pan flute.
He calls his Z-bass Brian!!
