Sting on a Winter’s Night

Wishful thinking in that title…

My brother bought me Sting’s new CD ‘If on a Winter’s Night…’ which I love.

It’s peaceful, beautiful and thought-provoking music showing Sting’s artistic side, with more than a bit of folksey musical style.

I missed his performance in Durham Cathedral and hear that this included a trip to Wallsend where he spent his childhood.

He is clearly returning to his Newcastle roots – it’s a funny thing what age does. No matter all the money in the world and living with the one you love, sometimes it takes geography and a place to complete the missing link you never knew you had till then…

Happy New Year!
