OK, I stopped paying attention a while ago, but did anyone else die a little inside when they saw Sting -"Symphonicities"? I have no idea what it sounds like, but doubt very much that I want to know. Blech. It's a long way from "Outlandos d' Amour," is it not?

I stopped paying attention to Sting after The Soul Cages, but, yeah, it's been a looooong way from Outlandos indeed.
