Sting is one of the few musicians who can just stand on a stage and sing...and have complete dominion over the entire room. God bless this man and his incredible, anointed talent.

My dad died 6 years ago. He was born in Jarrow (just outside of Newcastle). This version is our song. Whenever I hear it, he's right here beside me and in my heart. I love you, Dad.

I think I can help. His dad passed away, and I don't believe they were close. He hinted at that when he was introducing the song and said that his dad never said very much to him, and the one time he did, was to tell him he should go to sea one day. He didn't, and wrote this song as a tribute, acknowledging his dad's only advice for him. 'Why should I cry for you' means why should someone cry for someone they were not close to? The fact he wrote the song indicates he did cry for his dad....

Sting has impressive live versions, whereas his studio versions (especially from his early output) often seem a tad too hermetic for my taste. If there was a box set of all his studio albums with all songs replaced with the live version, I'd buy them again immediately.

When I heard this arrangement, during this tour, I was in the Ford Amphitheater in Tampa, FL. I was a musician who had lost my love for sound. The sun was going down, and the wind blew fast through the seats of the theater; the clouds were pink and orange, and Sting and his orcheatra were silhouetted in the light behind the stage. When the vocal harmony of the chorus rose out over the crowd and the wind passed across my face, I remembered what inspiration was.

A perfect example of why Sting is a musician's musician. Heartfelt,evocative lyrics; gentle melody line with a well built crescendo. Absolutely beautiful song.
@lalainarafanoharana21509 ай бұрын
My father made me listen to Sting when I was very young; one or two songs and I've had him in my discography ever since - his story and others. I lost my father 12 years ago, and every time I think of my father, I listen to Sting and thank him. My story and what Sting describes in this song have a similarity to what I experienced with my father. I love this music because I know I can find my father through it.

I take leave of music. Then I revisit Sting's music and allow it to awe me once again. His music and poetry have moved me since I was a teenager. He has no comparison and I feel blessed and am grateful to be a witness to his artistry.

Well I'm British-American so i can safely say I think: the father/son relationship is difficult and when the son is left alive without the father, there's a great sadness, from so much that was not said, that tears is the normal result. "Why Should I cry" is either a frustration that the tears will not come, or a lament that the tears have come too late.

Under the dog star sail Over the reefs of moonshine Under the skies of fall North, north west, the stones of Faroe Under the Arctic fire Over the seas of silence Hauling on frozen ropes For all my days remaining But would north be true? All colors bleed to red Asleep on the ocean's bed Drifting on empty seas For all my days remaining But would north be true? Why should I? Why should I cry for you? Dark angels follow me Over a godless sea Mountains of endless falling, For all my days remaining, What would be true? Sometimes I see your face, The stars seem to lose their place Why must I think of you? Why must I? Why should I? Why should I cry for you? Why would you want me to? And what would it mean to say, That, 'I loved you in my fashion'? What would be true? Why should I? Why should I cry for you?

Been at this concert. In 2010 in Berlin. Concert started a little later, because of filming it. Remarkable evening. Last time I saw him live. Here in Berlin he playes often open air. And sorry, I'm to old for standing ( in rain). I wanna sit and enjoy it. Didn't think he will come soon to Berlin again. He plays some gigs in Sommer. But to far away for me.

His music covers so many of my pains...good times...and I am always drawn to the songs. Tonight...I ask this question....trying to understand why.....I cry so much...and someone else doesn't. Not for me. I wish I knew why....but I never will. I don't want to ask any more. I never get an answer. The answers are in his actions. Sadly...he has a lot of backup plans. They come in all stages...of age, locale, and brain cells. That is not important enough tho. No one is to him. So I sit....and cry.

I disagree This arrangement is perfect. I saw Gordon play it live with the orchestra in Melbourne in 2011. A night I will remember all my life. The music just hit me in the heart. This compressed version cannot do it justice. The only song better than this on the night was Roxanne. It was so hauntingly beautiful it literally took my breath away.

This is one of the most incredibly beautiful songs I’ve ever heard. You can hear the doubt and regret through the lyrics (“…For all my days remaining, but would north be true?”) with him having a maybe somewhat complicated relationship with his dad and not knowing if he should have followed his father’s wish. “What would it mean to say, “I loved you in my fashion.” Those words have a sting, genuinely no pun intended.
