[@johndurkin6382]

From being a kid listening to Roxanne to seeing Sting on his 70th birthday, all seems to have passed in the blink of an eye, life is so short

[@le_th_]

I think the first song I remember as a kid was Every Little Thing She Does, but Roxanne was definitely in the top 3 first songs I remember hearing as a kid in elementary school. lol Best part about Roxanne was that I had no idea why she was putting on the red light. Such innocence! lol By the time I was in my first semester of my Freshman year at uni, I had Dream of the Blue Turtles on repeat. Sting's voice has been like a soundtrack playing throughout my life. Oddly, I've only seen him perform live once, and he made the Meadowlands Stadium in NJ feel like a small, intimate venue. I've seen dozens of bands and solo artists perform all over the US, but I've never quite seen any one person quietly and subtly command an entire sports arena of people the way Sting did. That was his Fields of Gold tour, and he was spectacular. Never got to see the Police perform, as Synchronicity was their last tour and they never returned from their "sabbatical" during that tour.

[@brianwray4320]

So true!

It's not that life is too short or too long...it's that there's no such thing as the past or the future...the only thing that's real is this moment. One day you're a baby, the next you're an old man.

Yes!

I worked for Sting when he started the Rainforest Foundation in LA, 1990. The experience was an honor and a pleasure that transformed my life... He is as kind and generous as he is talented. Many more birthdays to you, beloved Sting!

[@ianholden7]

Ghost in the machine decent album

[@UandMeGod]

Same here! I am 100% sure he is touched with something spiritual because of the way he has been able to convay his music for so many decades now and it just lifts our spirits listening to it. I know he went and studied all different cultures of music from all over the world so I am sure he was enlightened by that experience! He is 70!? Holy crap! He looks great!!!

[@dguyiop8]

He was in the Police! Didn't know that. What was his role?

[@delby66]

I've followed this man's career from his early days with The Police to his solo career. Much admiration for this man. I was lucky enough to have met him quite a few years ago. He came to Toronto to promote the movie he was in with Denholm Elliot called Brimstone and Treacle. My friend won tickets to go see the show and there were only 100 people there. Afterwards, they had an exclusive party at a club for all who were there. It was an amazing night because Sting jammed with the house band and they did quite a few Police tunes. He was so kind that in between sets he would come by and chat to everyone. He came by my friend's and my table and stopped and politely introduced himself, shook our hands and spoke to us for about 10 minutes. He was a gentleman and god knows how much my friend and I adored the Police. It was a wee bit intimadating to speak to him, but he was so kind. I'll always have a soft spot for this great singer, songwriter and film actor/director...producer. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!! Sting and man many more.

@@MAAivoges Wow, didn't know Sting sang in Portuguese. That is such a fantastic language. I love Milton Nascimento's music. My friend who lived in Brazil played this for me and told me that my favorite song from him sung in Porguguese is about seagulls that fly free! I love how Sting speaks to people in the language wherever he is traveling..and his incorporation of music from different parts of the world. I especially love when Sting has been accompanied by Cheb Mami whose voice sings directly into my soul.
