One of the best songs ever written. Elegance, style, jazz, saxophone, lyrics, black and white video. I always ask myself how is it possible to make a song with sophisticated melody like this, when there is a melody inside other melodies and in the end we have a masterpiece. Sting has a total musical taste, his songs are the best, Fields of gold, Seven days, When we dance, It’s probably me, Shape of my heart, They dance alone, Roxanne.
And of course there are so much more. We can count and count. I love him, his music stays with me during all my life.

pov: Richard brings coffee for the breakfasts and Thomas become outraged and dramatic when Richard offers him a cup of coffee and starts to sing "Englishman in NY" by Sting
Though the details are different (I do drink coffee, thank you), the overall effect struck right into the heart when I heard this way back when. My only advice would be sometimes you do have to run.
Sting is really something. O.K., I'm harsh on him, I agree. After all, …Nothing Like The Sun proved there is a way for him to be himself and be listenable at the same time. The review at Allmusic did hit a point – he's even more pretentious here, but the group that surrounds him makes up for that. Additionally, he's also more relaxed on the record, showing us why he became the superstar we know. One of his most famous singles from the record presents that fact, since he deals with quite a serious subject matter for a pop song in the 80's, though the piece has one of the most buoyant choruses Sting did. Yes, the LP shows another paradox of Sting, i.e. he wishes to be taken seriously, yet he's an incredible pop craftsman at his heart.
