Our Take

Ah, Sting. The man, the myth, the tantric legend. His latest offering, 57th & 9th, finds the former Police frontman diving headfirst into the world of rock and roll once again. And let me tell you, it's quite the ride.

From the opening track "I Can't Stop Thinking About You", Sting's signature croon is as smooth as ever, effortlessly gliding over crunchy guitar riffs and pounding drums. It's a reminder that, even at 65, the man still has the pipes to match the best of them.

But it's not all smooth sailing on 57th & 9th. Tracks like "Petrol Head" and "Inshallah" see Sting experimenting with a more aggressive sound, complete with distorted guitars and pulsating rhythms. It's a welcome change of pace, showing that even after all these years, Sting is unafraid to push boundaries and try something new.

Of course, no Sting album would be complete without some introspective ballads, and 57th & 9th delivers in spades. Songs like "Heading South on the Great North Road" and "The Empty Chair" showcase Sting's storytelling prowess, painting vivid pictures with his poetic lyrics.

So, in conclusion, 57th & 9th may not reinvent the wheel, but it's a solid addition to Sting's already impressive discography. Whether you're a die-hard fan or a casual listener, there's something here for everyone. Just be prepared to have "I Can't Stop Thinking About You" stuck in your head for days on end.

About the artist

Sting

Sting: the enigmatic Englishman, the man with the voice that launched a thousand tantric love songs, the one who turned every breath you take into a haunting melody. With a career spanning decades, Sting has seamlessly navigated the waters of rock, jazz, reggae, and even classical music, proving time and time again that he is a true musical chameleon. Born Gordon Sumner in Wallsend, England, Sting first rose to fame as the frontman of The Police in the late 1970s, gracing the world with hits like "Roxanne" and "Every Little Thing She Does is Magic." But it was his solo career that truly solidified his status as a musical icon, with albums like "Ten Summoner's Tales" and "Mercury Falling" showcasing his lyrical prowess and unmatched vocal range. Sting's musical talents are as diverse as his interests, which range from environmental activism to acting. He's a bit of a Renaissance man, if you will, proving that he's not just a one-trick pony. Plus, the man can wield a bass guitar like nobody's business, effortlessly adding a touch of class to every song he touches. Whether you're a die-hard fan or a casual listener, there's no denying Sting's impact on the music world. So next time you find yourself walking on the moon or feeling a little bit Englishman in New York, remember to tip your hat to the man, the myth, the legend: Sting.
