No matter what your opinion of Sting is… this is one of the best conversations about songwriting I’ve heard.
2 songs are played too. Good stuff.

So much to say… the rule of the 8 bars surprise, the disappearance of the bridge… Check it out :

Fantastic interview indeed  :D

Sting brings up so many interesting observations in the conversation. As does his partner Dom.

I feel that very quickly, they both realized that this was not your normal type of interview. Great questions from Rick.

Yeah, exactly.
I wish he’d do more interviews like this. Peter Gabriel would be great.

His song breakdowns are great. He loves Larry Mullens drumming. Watched I Still Haven’t Found and In Gods Country this week.

Wow, I was stunned to see Rick Beato land this interview. I wish they spent more time discussing everything.

Yeah. Let’s hope every guest gives him the number of the next one…

He’s taught his audience a lot. I’m not keeping pace with him concept for concept, believe me, but over time I’m getting the general idea.

I have many records from Metheny, I’m a fan going back to 1986.

I have no Queen records.

Well, believe it or not but I got to meet Mr Gordon Sumner yesterday and talked a bit about the whole « the bridge is the therapy of the song » thing. No need to say the lad impressed me both on and off stage.
