Sting

After disbanding the Police at the peak of their popularity in 1984, Sting quickly established himself as a viable solo artist, one obsessed with expanding the boundaries of pop music. Sting incorporated heavy elements of jazz, classical, and worldbeat into his music, writing lyrics that were literate and self-consciously meaningful, and he was never afraid to emphasize this fact in the press. For such unabashed ambition, he was equally loved and reviled, with supporters believing that he was at the forefront of literate, intelligent rock and his critics finding his entire body of work pompous. Either way, Sting remained one of pop's biggest superstars for the first ten years of his solo career, before his record sales began to slip.

Sting's Brand New Day (Expanded Edition) is an updated version of his 1999 album. The expanded edition brings additional remixes, live performances, and rare tracks to the original album's eclectic mix of styles.

Celebrating the 25th anniversary of Sting’s triple platinum Brand New Day album, this digital-only expanded edition features 20+ bonus tracks (B-sides, rare remixes, live performances), many of which have previously been unavailable digitally.

Hit-Singles wie “Englishman In New York” und “Fragile” befinden sich auf der Platte, die vom Rolling Stone Magazin in die Liste der 100 besten Alben der 80er gewählt wurde. “Dieses Album handelt vor allem von meiner Mutter”, äußert Sting über die Themen auf “Nothing Like The Sun”. “Und es geht auch um Frauen im Allgemeinen.”
