'I think the press are making more of it than even the royal family are.' Sting (OfficialSting) shares his thoughts on Prince Harry and Meghan Markle exiting the royal family

.I spend more time in New York than anywhere else. But I live in London and New York. And I live in Italy. And now I'm here.Well, I've had a home here since the '80s. I always enjoyed playing here. I've played everywhere from Madame Wong's Restaurant in downtown to the Forum and Dodger Stadium, so yeah, I have a pretty good idea about L.A.It's really the story of my town. I come from a little town in the Northeast of England. It was a famous shipyard town.

was the first movie I did. I was in it long enough to make an impression, but not long enough to blow it.Were you the character you played in it — a mod "It" boy? Yeah. "Every Breath You Take" is a very ambivalent song. Some people think it's romantic, other people think it's sinister. I never can predict either view. I think it's both. I think that's what its power is — it has an ambiguous, strange quality about it. So I needed to write the antidote, if you like. "If you love somebody, set them free" is the opposite of that. But they're also biographical to a certain extent.It's a personal story.

Absolutely. God's gospel truth. When they launched a big ship at the end of my street, they'd invite dignitaries up from London — the Duke of Edinburgh, the Queen. It must've been 1960, so I'll be 8 or 9 years old. And the Queen Mother came down the street and we all were waving our little flags and I caught her eye for some reason. She did that little wave they do. And she just kept looking at me for what seemed like forever.

Okay.

I think I'm going to be OK.

Sorry WoodyHarrelson 😂

Ok. He’s old enough we can call him stung now, right?

Was I supposed to be?

ok, thanks. i won't.

OfficialSting Thank God! It would probably be eight hours long with no climax.

OfficialSting Bohemian Rhapsody was in reality a pretty awful representation of Freddie Mercury. Almost equivalent to how raw a portrayal Elton John received in Rocketman. I wouldn’t want some “executive” to plot the story of my life either.

OfficialSting Do find a few aspects grating, & not all agree, but next to JamesTaylor - in re structure, dynamics, complexity, etc. - Sting is one of the most proficient technicians ever. (Not a nod to 'folksy;' as proof, I cite Sting's reference to his Police period as 'muscular.' I agree.)

OfficialSting Sting is the most boring Rockstar in the World no Drugs no Scandals so whats to tell in a Biopic ?

OfficialSting Not everyone needs to want the treatment, I can respect it.

OfficialSting Thy name is Sting, will always keep stinging and singing.
