Watch Sting Play Driving New Single 'I Can't Stop Thinking About You'...

September 28, 2016

 

 

Sting and his band rock out in the studio – and he even climbs onto a roof – in the video for his new song "I Can't Stop Thinking About You," a tune off his upcoming solo LP 57th & 9th. Jeff Coffman, who has previously helmed clips by Robert Francis and Jason Mraz, directed the clip. The new record is the former Police frontman's first pure rock album in over a decade, following the jazz-inflected musical-theater work The Last Ship and a number of classical works. It will come out on November 11th. 

 

 

For the album, Sting teamed with some of his regular collaborators – including guitarist Dominic Miller and drummers Vinnie Colaiuta and Josh Freese – as well as the group the Last Bandoleros. He has said that the album came together spontaneously, in only a matter of weeks.
"It's about searching and traveling, the road, that pull of the unknown," he said of the LP in a statement. "On this album, we ended up with something that's energetic and noisy, but also thoughtful."

The record will come out digitally as well as on CD and vinyl. There is also a deluxe edition that contains three bonus tracks, one of which is an "L.A. Version" of "I Can't Stop Thinking About You." The others are a live version of the Police's "Next to You," with the Last Bandoleros, and a "Berlin Sessions Version" of the 57th & 9th song "Inshallah." A super deluxe edition contains liner notes by Sting, a DVD with a Sting interview, the "Next to You" performance and photographs.

His is the stuff of the timeless music vein deep in the foundation of our lives, His music doesn't take you back ... his music tells you your there now.
