According to Google: Sting's song "Desert Rose" from his 1999 album Brand New Day has a North African feel that's influenced by the Algerian folk music style known as Raï. Raï is a type of African folk-blues that may have originated in the early 20th century. Sting collaborated with Algerian songwriter Cheb Rabah (Rabah Zarradine) and Algerian raï singer Cheb Mami on the song, which Sting wrote in Paris after discovering the Raï music scene there. Mami's music blends Mediterranean and Western influences, including Turkish, Flamenco, Greek, and Latin music, and his voice has Andalusian accents. Glad you enjoyed it! One of my favorite Sting songs. :)

I highly suggest doing the studio version. You should hear it even if you don't react to it in a video (although I wouldn't hate that, lol). The mix takes these two great voices into angelic. It's quite spectacular. This was wonderful... the studio version is masterful.

Agreed. The live is great, but the studio version is otherworldly!

FYI, Tom MacDonald just issued a rare non-Friday release of a song about the Trump debacle called "You Missed." It's crazy he wrote the music, the lyrics and the beat, then recorded, mixed, mastered and shot a video for this song and released it all in less than 24 hours.

That has nothing to do with this song though.

I know (almost all of us know) you Britt love and always prefer to watch live performance videos. Sometimes though (like this one), once you've already watched this live version, I recommend you 110% to watch also the original version video. You'll notice the difference to the live version and you'll love it.

I saw Sting in concert around the time this song was in popular rotation on radio. I imagine it was too popular to exclude from the play list, and he simply could not drum up a suitable alternate for the whole tour, but it was WEIRD hearing it without Cheb Mami.
