Sting is timeless. His artistry from the Police to his solo career is distinctive and sets such a bar in music. He will always have a real special place in my vault of go to artists that never tire my ears.
@@lucdion3363 I have never looked for a nose job. I know he's had hair implants or plugs or whatever they're called. I will have to pull my sting bin out and look at photos, lol!
Lee Barry absolutely! “The Wild Wild Sea” makes me day dream, every time I listen to it. I have this fantasy of him playing it live, which I don’t think will ever happen...
While I do like some of the songs on Soul Cages, my fav is Ten Summoner's Tales, by far. Such an incredibly diverse and upbeat album. Next is Dream of the Blue Turtles, then Nothing Like The Sun.
Saw the play opening night and it was phenomenal. Worth my whole trip to L.A. I was so impressed that I'm going to hit Vegas to see his show there (though I wish I was seeing The Last Ship again.). One of the best soundtracks I have ever heard. Everybody was humming or singing as we left the theatre.
Sting, if you are able to get away, come on up to Reno-Tahoe area and you can hike all over the Sierras. Come on into town and do a show or two. You will appreciate it so much more than Vegas.
I actually saw his play in Finland. It was great! Also one of my most memourable days because he turned up to watch it! Just sat down in the middle of the audience and performed a couple of songs at the end of it as a surprise. It was all dream-like.
Love sting. I live in his hometown (Wallsend) and there are no more shipyards and no working men. It is so sad town really run down now, but the people are still all lovely and friendly..
I think he must have had something done recently. A tiny bit of botox or facial fillers, as he's looking younger than a couple years back. Whatever he's had done has worked very well.
"The Last Ship" is a really beautiful show. I'd highly recommend anyone in the area to check it out if they can- I'm sure seeing it with Sting himself would make it even better.
Hehe I've heard Sting tell these stories dozens of times over the past 30 years. They get more and more embellished. I really love the guy. What a great voice - even when he's just speaking.
I lived in Bayswater and studied there love it love ❤️ Sting I have only seen you live once in DC amazing 😉 now going to Vegas seems like I must go also going to see the Last Ship this spring is important
I'm sure the show in Cesar Palace will be amazing.. wished I could be there to see Sting.. he is amazing 💖 Have a delightful delightful day everyone Enjoy life 💕🍃🌍🍃💕😎✌💕 one of my big-big favourite 👍
Jimmy thought it was so funny that Sting had to get a seaman’s card which of course in Jimmy’s mind meant the other little swimmers. Thankfully Sting let him giggle to himself and didn’t play along.
Boy, how I wish I could see and hear "The Last Ship" production in LA. I remember him performing the title song on a TED Talk video. Beautiful, and he's quite a storyteller.
Hello Sting. Your one my all time favorites. I listen to your music and collaborations still almost everyday. Your up there with John Denver, James Taylor for me. I love band Chicago, Jazz, Jazz fusion, light rock, crooners, ballads, easy listening. Great to have songs tell stories it great inspiration poetry to music to Chaney was world positive vibes, I hate gambling
I'm dyslexic but read his book Broken Music, in fact it's the only book I've read from cover to cover, aside from the Bible lol I once was told by a friend "obviously your not reading the right books if your not finishing them". So I made it my aim to finish at least one.. I have a lot of respect for the man and great book and unexpected insight into the work his doing now particularly with regards this shipyard life...
pete gerard and here I was thinking Sting was a cool guy, but apparently he thinks he’s too good for people according to you - Sting must be an arsehole in your world.
I thought I was the only one who thought Jimmy’s interview style was annoying... but saw I wasn’t alone. Comment away. On a side note... I really want to see this theatre show and his Vegas show!
Kimmel is just being sophomoric in his attempted humor, talking over the legend that is Sting. These talk show hosts get to thinking every word from their mouth is funny.....it's not.
The first night of my “college life” I was introduced to “Drunk-a** Roxanne” which if ur unfamiliar: the song “Roxanne” starts and every time they say “Roxanne”, u do a shot. That night was...I have no idea what happened after that. Lol
Paying someone else tens of thousands to get drunk off your ass and party. Really? The Greek system is a joke. Your "cute" little story is pre-CISE-ly why non-STEM university education is utterly worthless these days, Dee.
Exactly, this is what I hate the most about Jimmy "piss face" Kimmel, he just won't let people talk for more than 20 seconds without him butting in....
@@philipthomas6808 Because Kimmel is high. He can't do his show straight. First time I've glimpsed him in years. His nose and ears have grown from the GH injections he got awhile back to bulk up his body.
Spotify Account I am a Bonafide musician who’ studied classical music from age 5-17 then Jazz and Im also a vocalist and Sting is my ultimate vocalist! Along with George Michael. Every song I listed I have on both iPhones.... so no I didn’t research anything... musicians know lots of artists and songs, working musicians and vocalists that is...
Esoteric Enchiladas oh no... I was saying I could go on with more songs but I’ll stop there. Yikes, that was cool, it’s all in the interpretation of the person reading! Lol
Sting: "Somebody said, 'Checking out your star, Sting?'..." Jimmy: "Did anyone recognise you out there?" Sting: "Yeah, the guy who said, 'Checking out your star, Sting?'" Jimmy needs to listen to his guests more.
Its such a shame you can't hear how good my Sting impersonation is... Desert Rose is easily the funniest, I don't know the words and to be honest I don't see how knowing them would change anything at all! (Compliment by the way) 🏆

Yeah. Jimmy’s walking on him a little too much, probably because he is nervous sitting so close to him. Sting is, afterall, a legend when it comes to original rock/jazz/pop with superb lyrics. I would be d d d d dribbling all over the place.

Sting is such a classy, kind dude and terrific musician. Kimmel always seems to be going for frat house humor.
Well said.
The Police were incredible. One of the best bands of the 80s. Miss the excitement of anticipating their next release.
Saw Ghost in the Machine tour in concert. Fantastic.
Pure Genius
“King Of Pain”
Is the most underrated song ever
@Josue2018 Didn't Say That It Was His Best
Maybe you should read the comment before making ignorant statements
Josue2018 I know it’s rude to assume things
He's pretty damn "rated." No worries there. 😉
He's really ageing well. Like his music.

I love the "Soul Cages" album which captures the "shipyard" feel very well. It's my favorite of his solo albums. A great sounding record.
Lee Barry absolutely! “The Wild Wild Sea” makes me day dream, every time I listen to it. I have this fantasy of him playing it live, which I don’t think will ever happen...
Great comment...God he has done some amazing stuff...You have to wonder where people like him come up with this stuff
underappreciated album
"The Soul Cages" is the best music he ever did, including anything he did with The Police or on the own.
While I do like some of the songs on Soul Cages, my fav is Ten Summoner's Tales, by far. Such an incredibly diverse and upbeat album. Next is Dream of the Blue Turtles, then Nothing Like The Sun.
"No, no, no...I do the 'magic'..."
"Every Little Thing He does Is Magic...!"
Anil Achar came to comment this. Glad someone else shares my humor 👍🏻
We're all magical just waiting for realization. Stings mission to bring us into the love vortex. 😁 Where magic runs high!
That's the first thing that came to mind for me too!
Unlike most of today's musical misfits this guy is a genuine class act, a proper musician from when music was still real....

Geez Jimmy, let Sting talk! You interrupted way too much!!
Jeni Wixel Exactly!
That’s exactly what I thought
So annoying when interviewers do that
I was yelling at the screen, "Jimmy, jeez, shut up! Let the man finish a sentence!" lol
Damn Sting looks fabulous.
And voice still sounds the same from the 80s
Great artist
He’s still gorgeous!
Love sting. I live in his hometown (Wallsend) and there are no more shipyards and no working men. It is so sad town really run down now, but the people are still all lovely and friendly..
Sting has now looked the same for 25 years.
I know, right? He looks 5 to 10 years younger than the last time I saw him. Doesn't look like he's had any obvious surgery either.
DOESN'T LOOK 68
@@TheAlStewartArchives it's the yoga and tantric sex keeping him young.
He and David Lee Roth look like twins.
I think he must have had something done recently. A tiny bit of botox or facial fillers, as he's looking younger than a couple years back. Whatever he's had done has worked very well.
I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOVVVVVVEEEEEE STING.
I’m thinking a Vegas trip in May.
Sting.... We saw the last Police concert at MSG and it was Awesome!!! Thank You for the Many many great years of Awesome music. 😘😘😘. I Love You 😘💕
I was there too. Incredible show!! Loved the NYPD Drum Corps opening into Message....AMAZING!! 🎤❤🎵
"The Last Ship" is a really beautiful show. I'd highly recommend anyone in the area to check it out if they can- I'm sure seeing it with Sting himself would make it even better.
Agreed. Saw it on his birthday even.

Ditto lol
I've seen this gentleman in concert numerous times and yes, he does do the magic. Cheers Sting.
My favorite singer since i was 14 years old, i saw him four time, and it's was very magic each time !!!
Love Sting, the great poet.
Sting is awesome - and really, really funny.
...AND talented!! yes, some people are gifted by nature..!
Sting! The ever evolving talent! Saw his show here too 👏❤️😀
Sting is to genuineness as Kimmel is to artificiality
YES kIMMEL IS CRAP
Great point.
There's literally no artist in existence like Sting, his music is so ( for the lack of a better word ) different....
Sting is very unique and talented
Agree..
The Last Ship is amazing, one of the only musicals I've ever really enjoyed
I lived in Bayswater and studied there love it love ❤️ Sting I have only seen you live once in DC amazing 😉 now going to Vegas seems like I must go also going to see the Last Ship this spring is important

" I do the magic" classic
I can’t stand how entertainment, destroying America. Media entertainers are trolls, But, Sting is still classy suave and debonair.
I will always remember Sting, not for his music, but for his role as Feyd-Rautha in David Lynch’s Dune.
that was many things. forgettable was not one of them.
'I do the magic'
Sting - 2020
He'll need it;!
Jimmy thought it was so funny that Sting had to get a seaman’s card which of course in Jimmy’s mind meant the other little swimmers. Thankfully Sting let him giggle to himself and didn’t play along.
Absolutely love Sting & the Police. Wish I could go to Vegas.
And Jimmy... LET YOUR GUESTS TALK
Some of Stings lyrics are incredible. Synchronity One and Two lyrics are amazing. A once in a generation talent.
Sting is just a legend I miss those days in the 80s with band like the police. We need to keep that music alive ❤️
Boy, how I wish I could see and hear "The Last Ship" production in LA. I remember him performing the title song on a TED Talk video. Beautiful, and he's quite a storyteller.
I am going to purchase your book Jimmy, its such a lovely gesture. So awesome to see Sting to. XOX
Kat Buckley my favorite endearing term, Silly Goose!
I enjoyed this musical enormously. Much better than I envisioned; it's stunning.
Roxanne 1978 I was at school then and remember the time it came out. Scary. Sting's a good old Geordie boy.
I wanna be like him when I grow old : healthy and stylish 👍
I love how Sting clarifies who Andy and Stewart are. Come on! Everybody knows who they are, too, Sting. It's okay. Just like they know you. 😂😂😂
It's probably me, still one of my favorite songs ever. So sad I left the US a week ago :( Love you Sting.
Eazy A and love the version of gregory porter amazing
It is an amazing performance , MR porter did the first version of the song, which I only find in Lethal Weapon 3 background song.
He is still so handsome and eloquent.
Sting is so charming here... I mostly remember him being standoffish and reserved. He's doing a Vegas act now? I want to go!
Yup. He used to be that way. Not anymore. Fatherhood and grandfatherhood will do that to a man.
His solo work is amazing....Bring On the Night--amazing movie
Could listen to that man telling stories all day😍
Can't wait to see sting in Vegas!!!!

doesn't shut up

Harris should be so lucky
Does´t Jimmy know who Stewart and Andy are? I mean, he refers to thems as "those guys you were in the band with"
I believe that Jimmy was explaining that to the audience.
Jimmy was being facetious, playfully reminding Sting who Andy and Stewart was as opposed to the LAPD. It was all in jest.

Amazing interview to a music genius!
