"Send Your Love"

For those who are interested, you can hear a clip of the upcoming single from the new Sting album at Sting's official site. It's a sleek, surprising dance number. The album should be very, very interesting...

Just listened to it.  I'm not really a fan of dance style music, but it sounds OK to me.  I wonder if the whole album will be that way, or if its just that one song.  I'm not really that familiar with Sting, but I do like "Every Breath You Take" and "Desert Rose."

I think "Send Your Love" sounds like a lot of fun, but I don't think I could take a whole album of that kind of thing.

I enjoy the two songs you mentioned- "Desert Rose" is killer- but Sting's best work, in my opinion, is the moody, gothic, soul-searching The Soul Cages album. It's full of stories about fathers and sons, ships, seas, storms, and allusions to David and Bathsheba. On the title track, a small boy makes a bet with some sort of demonic sea god, with the boy's father's soul at stake. It's an exciting album, to say the least.
