Lovely - really enjoyed that - lots of feeling. Sting does write a great melody and your slightly slower arrangement works really well.

Nice job Jimmy. Like the soft and contemplative approach in this song.
Thanks for sharing it.

Very pretty, Jimmy. I liked it. That's a nice song and I like your arrangement. Contemplative was a very good description.

Hi folks,

just uploaded a remastered version of my first own fingerstyle arrangement from 2012 - the sound is a little bit better now... :-)
