Listen to the last part. I like the tune. 3000 people were being incineratated on that day. Thank you Sting for the acknowledgement. One of my sisters and I were in Scotland. (on holiday from the U.S.) The other was late for an appointment at Tower One. Thank God. September 11, 2001.
when Sting performed fragile song live, on tour, on the day of 9/11/2001 attacks on NY, DC, & PA airplanes... that hit Sting pretty hard: th-cam.com/video/F3BOvEBq-j0/w-d-xo.html&feature=shared
I remember how they were debating whether or not to continue with the concert due to the tragic events. Glad they still went thru with it despite what had happened. Positive vibes are crucial in times of such negativity.
sorry if you dont like it, but to me this fusion of genres (jazz being its most notorioues) is to me one of the best ways to show true talent, and original performing of a classic song
Absolutamente impresionante la re interpretación de su éxito "Roxanne", la que hizo Sting (@OfficialSting) en el concierto que dio en su casa en la Toscana italiana el 11 de septiembre de 2001, un concierto que se vio afectado por los terribles sucesos de aquel día y que se llevó a cabo pese a ellos a manera de homenaje. El concierto esta reflejado en su álbum/DVD "All this time" publicado muy poco después. La aproximación al jazz que hace Sting, notoria también en otros trabajos, lo es aún más en este álbum increíble. Uno de mis favoritos. #SmoothJazzVocals
The reactions of those involved completely undo the intent of the 9/11 attackers. What a feeling of failure they feel when they see videos like this :)

Call me heathen, but I first heard this song watching Moulin Rouge (best part of the entire movie), and ever since the best version has always been that sung by the Narcoleptic Argentinian.
That concert is probably the best of his career! To me it is!

His voice is unbelievable!
Sting cured some of the emotional pain from that horrible day...A great live concert and thank you PBS for showing it when you did on 9/11/2001.

RIP Kenny Kirkland (Keyboardist) - It has been 24 terrible years since the tragedy and Sting lost a dear friend that day. 😢🎶📻
