Enjoy new music discoveries and music-diamonds

What would a man not do?
What would a man not say?
What would a man not agree to?
What would he not betray?

Where would a man fear to trespass?
Where would a man not stray?
What crime would a man not admit to?
What price would a man not pay?

He’s got no money but his head’s up in the stars
(For her love)
He’ll spray her name across a streetcar
(For her love)
If he can’t read between the lines up there on Mars
(For her love)
He’ll find some meaning in a street light

If it takes forever I will wait for you
For a thousand summers I will wait for you
Till you’re back beside me, till I’m holding you
Till I hear you sigh here in my arms

Anywhere you wander, anywhere you go
Every day remember how I love you so
In your heart believe what in my heart I know
That forevermore I’ll wait for you

The clock will tick away the hours one by one
And then the time will come when all the waiting’s done
The time when you return and find me here and run
Straight to my waiting arms

If it takes forever I will wait for you
For a thousand summers I will wait for you
Till you’re here beside me, till I’m touching you
And forevermore sharing our love

Till you’re here beside me, till I’m touching you
And forevermore I will wait for you

Sting – I Can’t Stop Thinking About You

Manos — Wed, 07 Sep 2016 08:23:50 +0000

Sting has never been afraid to try new sounds, but with this fall’s 57th & 9th he is actually doing something he did a long time ago: making pop music. Since 2003’s Sacred Love, the Rock Hall Of Famer’s studio recordings have focused on Renaissance music, Celtic show tunes, and orchestral covers of his catalog. That left a lane for folks like Bruno Mars (“Locked Out Of Heaven“), Gotye (“Somebody That I Used To Know“), Ellie Goulding (“On My Mind“), and others to revive the hybrid reggae/new wave sound the Police perfected over three decades ago. Sting’s new album’s first single “I Can’t Stop Thinking About You” is a chugging and uncharacteristically unfussy rocker with distorted vocals and hooks more straight-forward than his highfalutin recent work. It’s pretty good! He played it live on KROQ this morning with rising Tex-Mex band the Last Bandoleros, and longtime collaborators Josh Freese and Dominic and Rufus Miller. Sting says it was inspired by looking at a blank page and waiting for inspiration. So a song about trying to write a song. Check out both the album version and this morning’s performance of tune, along with album info, below.

TRACKLIST
01 “I Can’t Stop Thinking About You”
02 “50,000”
03 “Down, Down, Down”
04 “One Fine Day”
05 “The Pretty Young Soldier”
06 “Petrol Head”
07 “Heading South On The Great North Road”
08 “If You Can’t Love Me”
09 “Inshallah”
10 “The Empty Chair”

Here’s the album cover:

57th & 9th is out 11/11 via Cherrytree/Interscope. The Studio Collection, an 11-LP vinyl box set collecting all his previous solo albums, comes out 9/30.

This clip from another song on the album, incidentally, sounds a lot like the Police.
