    Sting is a legend,he has written so much amazing music and for people who think he is arrogant or full of himself well he has every right to be.There is nothing wrong with self belief when you have achieved all the things that Sting has managed to.And it sounds like he was an excellent teacher as well and very kind.I really can't understand the negativity towards him,he has achieved so much and managed to keep on writing so much good music which is no mean achievement.

      Ana Martins. sting actually does seem quite lovely if i’m honest. all stars are held on a unattainable pedal stool to be perfect constantly. It is rather unfair i think.

Always smiling n laughing and was a great Goal Keeper and later he became an urban legend as a bus driver…gonna miss him.

    Truly touching song and interview. It was a great idea to go to Cramlington, but some former pupils don't get a chance to speak or be seen clearly. Sting shows many subtle sides here, but his face during the song is amazing: it feels like we are seeing a weathered legend, of the Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash or Cesaria Evora type. Good luck, Mr Sumner.

    Am I asking for the moon?
    *Sniff*
    Is it really so implausible?
    *Sniff*
    That you and I could soon
    *Sniff*
    Come to some kind of arrangement?
    I'm not asking for the moon
    *Sniff*
    I've always been a realist
    *Sniff*
    When it's really nothing more
    *Sniff*
    Than a simple rearrangement
    With one roof above our heads
    *Sniff*
    A warm house to return to
    *Sniff*
    We could start with separate beds
    *Sniff*
    I could sleep alone or learn to
    *Sniff*
    I'm not suggesting that we'd find
    *Sniff*
    Some earthly paradise forever
    *Sniff*
    I mean how often does that happen now
    *Sniff*
    The answer's probably never
    *Sniff*
    But we could come to an arrangement
    *Sniff*
    A practical arrangement
    *Sniff*
    And you could learn to love me
    *Sniff*
    Given time
    I'm not promising the moon
    *Sniff*
    I'm not promising a rainbow
    *Sniff*
    Just a practical solution
    *Sniff*
    To a solitary life
    I'd be a father to your boy
    *Sniff*
    A shoulder you could lean on
    *Sniff*
    How bad could it be
    *Sniff*
    To be my wife?
    With one roof above our heads
    *Sniff*
    A warm house to return to
    *Sniff*
    You wouldn't have to cook for me
    *Sniff*
    You wouldn't have to learn to
    *Sniff*
    I'm not suggesting that this proposition here
    *Sniff*
    Could last forever
    *Sniff*
    I've no intention of deceiving you
    *Sniff*
    You're far too clever
    *Sniff*
    But we could come to an arrangement
    *Sniff*
    A practical arrangement
    *Sniff*
    And perhaps you'd learn to love me
    *Sniff*
    Given time
    It may not be the romance
    *Sniff*
    That you had in mind
    *Sniff*
    But you could learn to love me
    *Sniff*
    Given time

    I love Sting's albums: from Outlandos d'Amour all the way to Ten Summoner's Tales (he started to lose me after that).
    Why do so many musicians get so safe and dull as they get older? His passion and fire appears to have faded long ago.
    By the sound of this song, instead of looking forward to the new album, I'm slightly dreading it.
    Just saying.

    Sting and Noel Gallagher come across in the same way in interviews, similar backgrounds which they advertise especially the "we didn't have a pot to piss in" aspect of their early lives, but they both also display a self congratulatory smugness of"Look at me I'm great".
