One of the best Very Best Of s around - What can you say about Best of ... albums that simply list the hits? Well, as Best of album s go, this is one of the best! Nine Police hits and another nine of Sting s as a soloist, all written by the main man himself.One of the benefits of this format is that it allows you to revisit songs away from the context of the album in which they originally appeared. And so I was able to appreciate just how brilliant Fields of Gold, Brand New Day, Desert Rose and If I Ever Lose My Faith In You really are: they are truly five-star songs. But the downside is that you also realise just how annoying is Can t Stand Losing You.But that s the only duff track in what is an excellent selection of songs.
What an album? - Gordon Sumner (alias Sting) established in the band Police, with a host of hits including Every Breath you take and Message in A Bottle. He later launched a successful solo career with hits such as English man in New York, If You Love Somebody Set Them Free, Fields of Gold, Desert rose and many more. He has four decades of experience in the music business, but the appeal has not diminished as a musicianThe Very Best of Sting and the Police features a collection hits of Gordon Sumner. This includes the association with the Police band and as a solo artist. Every single track from start to end is superb and you can timeslessly. The album makes an excellent inclusion in the CD collectionThe beauty about the album is that it consist of songs from four decades 70 s, 80 s, 90 s and present. This shows that his sticking power as a musician is very strong. If you have a passion for music of the highest quality, purchase this album. It beats music industry today, which is bombarded with too many manufactured bands and Sting exemplifies what real music should entail. There is talent in today music industry which I am not going to deny, but it is hard to find unique talent such as Sting and his album deservedly honours his talents and skills which he brings to the music industry.If you are looking for talented musician with a great voice as in the case of Sting and also leave a music legacy with their singles as proven by his excellent track record, then buy this album.
Brilliant from start to finish - An album full of brilliant classic tracks, but a glaring omission in Shape of My Heart, recently defiled by the awful Sugar Babes and Craig David. If you think you like Sting, trust me, you do: buy this,its great!
A must have for your collection - When i was in my early teens, Sting was just a name that i had heard of but to be honest didnt really think much of... but i was slowly introduced to his music in lessons (by my rather odd music teacher who *may* have had a thing for him)and ever since i have LOVED this man. If you are going to buy one sting/Police album this has to be the one. If ur not really a sting fan but you listen to this album, u realise how amazing he really is! every track you think oh iv heard this song before wow! and same for the next.. and the next... and the next... quite an amazing experience! so if you,re like me (a poor student) and can only afford one sting album - buy this one! its got everything and i love it soo much and im so upset because i cant afford tickets for his sacred love concert at the albert hall... :( maybe one day wen i become an investment banker he ll tour again?
SUPERB! - Wot an excellent greatest hits collection this is!From the classic Can t stand losing you through to If you love somebody set them free and even up to the present day with the likes of Desert Rose.This is certainly the definitive way for a novice Sting fan to start their collection.There are only a few snags- some Police classics are missing, such as the original version of The Bed s too big without you, the dark Spirits in the material world and of course, the anthem Synchronicity II. However, all sins forgiven as this collection isn t a double album and yet, they ve got his best singles on one, solitary disk.DEFINATELY WORTH THE MONEY!I would also like to recommend the original Police:Greatest Hits, and Fields of gold:The best of Sting 1984-94.
