Tempted ft. Sting | The Crooner Sessions #84 | Gary Barlow

My guest on #TheCroonerSessions today is the amazing Sting. Can't thank you enough for doing this sir. It appears we have a mutual appreciation for Squeeze. It was superb to perform this classic song from 1981 ‘Tempted’ written by the amazing Chris Difford and Glenn Tilbrook originally performed by one of our Crooner guests, Paul Carrack.

Dear Sting and Gary, PLEASE do an album together. This was too good to be a one off. I can only begin to imagine the quality of pop you two could come up with together.

[@darkpitcher5242]

Difford and Tilbrook sung by Sting and Barlow I think I've gone to heaven thank you soooooo much

[@marcwilcox2281]

Sting is still one of the best vocalists ever. This is just beautiful, can’t stop listening to it.

[@karenhaylock9021]

Sting is amazing. His voice is so rich. Their voices blend well. A great song. Love this.

[@conraddavies8064]

Sting has history with this song. He has performed this live previously! This is rather wonderful! ❤

Gary is a harmony machine, truly amazing vocalist.

[@WalterSobchak1000]

Sting is still on top of his game, loved this

[@edwinjamespope8118]

Complete genius.

[@VoloviaUk]

He's actually a better singer than he ever was. Sad that the 'pop' world is for the young...

[@tinagoldman2316]

As I once told him, Sting could read the dictionary and it would be fantastic- every little song he sings is magic... And since I last saw him in concert in the Fall of 2019, these moments are just wonderful for the soul

[@trudiatherton7112]

Love Sting - this was magic for me, what a tone he has. Gary and Sting complement each other

[@GenMaster124]

Sting a true master of his craft 👏🏻👏🏻😎

Awesomeness!! Thanks two Top Blokes. CJ x

[@katieplaisance2230]

I said one of last week's was the best Crooner Session ever, but I may stand corrected! What harmonies!

[@shannoncassar3349]

God....this is so so so so so so so gooooodddd!!! Sting, no words. Gary ... damn!!

[@carolinademarco2636]

Oh wow. OH WOW. This was one of the best Crooner EVER. I'm completely blown away; it literally took me somewhere else. Sting is a f*cking legend. You two combined were absolutely incredible. Just incredible.

I gave your comment a thumbs up but was there really a reason to swear?

A tune that is NOT easy to sing, very complex melody. Really enjoyed this!

[@lynseycstormster4689]

Great job 😁 Tempted is my favourite Squeeze song and Paul Carracks' vocals on the original are just golden ...I ❤ that guy

[@natashavanhemelryk5800]

Sting you’re amazing and harmonies with Gary is like therapy. Well done guys 🙌🏽

[@bridginodonnell3026]

STING!!❤️ Thanks Gary❤️

[@bluescoobyblue]

And Sting will be 70 in October. Seriously under-rated and a musical legend. He oozes class and today's musicians should take note!

[@aniechka]

@Willow Cat, wow! :) A cat criticizes the famous singer! Puss-puss-puss! Did the owner forget to feed you today? :)

[@AdamGarrett72]

I don't think you can call a guy who has won 17 Grammys and sold 100 Million records under-rated

[@bluescoobyblue]

@@AdamGarrett72 I was thinking in terms of the music critics.

Gordon - wtf have you just done 😮 - Stingarised this superb Squeeze song -it is beautiful man x

[@khill6197]

Just when I thought I'd heard the best you go and TOP it!!! How wonderful to hear you both together!😎😎

[@jaytopham8514]

You guys sounded absolutely fantastic. Lovely music - like some others have said, if you sit here, close your eyes and listen, you'll be somewhere more beautiful for a little while. Keep taking us there Gary, thank you sharing x

[@alejandraalejandra2265]

the best Crooner Sessions!!!!!!!!!

[@hazchem1]

I've been saying it for years. Gary Barlow is one of the finest singers in the music business and a great song writer. His voice sounds awesome with anyone.

[@christopherforder8966]

Omg Sting just gets better! His voice is rich as chocolate and Gary voice is amazing too. Suits this type of song.

[@mariannegeraud6318]

What a delight 🤗 Sting and Garry Barlow the personification of a class act!!

Uplifting singing collaboration. Thanks for giving my Monday a lift. Luv my Sting when he sings with others.

[@Kari_B61ex]

I love The Crooner Sessions BUT this has to be my absolute favourite so far - Or did I say that last week!? Squeeze and 'Tempted' just awesome and sung with the amazing Sting. Tempted is the song I most equate to my ex-husband, the man I adored beyond belief...thankfully I don't any more. But it still brings back reminders of why I don't.

[@meee48476]

Apart from being exceptional, it is how effortlessly they make it seem. Sting fixing his glasses and picking up at the exact beat. Such a joy to watch.

[@azuladnan]

The best collaboration in the Crooner Sessions! Not often do we get to hear Sting do a cover of someone else' song, and it happens to be my favourite Squeeze track. Well done, Gary!

[@desscamell5416]

You look absolute fantastic Sting

Your voices blend so perfectly together WOW this is a Real Treat...Thank you Gary and Sting 👍😃👍
