2007 would be a "Songs to the labyrinth" year... too
After the European tour, it is now a reissue of the album which is previous...

As Sting.com states : On February 20, Deutsche Grammophon will release a special DVD/CD package entitled, 'The Journey & the Labyrinth: The Music of John Dowland'.

The set includes both an extended version of the TV special "Great performances" and a bonus CD consisting of live material recorded at Jazz at Lincoln Center in New York, plus consummate Sting hits including 'Message in a Bottle' & 'Fields of Gold', adapted for the lute.

The "great perfromances" TV boradcast will show Sting, joindes by Edin Karamazov, interspersed performances of such timeless Dowland songs such as 'Can She Excuse My Wrongs', 'Come Again' and 'Flow My Tears' are discussions with musicologists David Pinto and Anthony Rooley of the composer's place in music history and his relevance today, plus recitations by Sting from Dowland's personal correspondence.

Filmed, appropriately enough, at Lake House, Sting's 16th-century manor house in Wiltshire, and in the ancient gardens of Il Palagio, his home in Italy, it will also features the performers before a live audience at St. Luke's Church in London.

Concluding the special are Sting and Karamazov, alone at Lake House, duetting on Dowland's best known work, 'In Darkness Let Me Dwell'.

Sting back in studio!!
Read on stingus : According to Billboard.com, Josh Freese and other artists are already involved in Sting's next studio album, which is supposedly taking place at Il Palagio.

Apparently also, this studio album will move away from the overproduced Brand New Day and Sacred Love concepts, and will go back to basics. The Broken Music tour apparently finally enlightened Sting's musical taste, while the rather disappointing sales figures of his latest album further pressed for a musical change. Hence maybe also the reason why guitarist Lyle Workman will also be involved.

A special thanks to Greg Bratton to the scan and info... and to Tom Rose to send me the remix of Fragile which is soooooooo bad! It is comparable to the Siter moon mixes of 1996 if you see what I mean... nothing to do with the song!


12.12.01 8.24 PM
I have updated my CD collection list... I "stole" the idea of Tom from www.northnorthwest.de of the point for the updates... it is so good!

Toni Carbo confirms "If you love" as a promo CD in Spain, which does not means a glrobal release...

You may ask yourself what means the colum with letter added to the ...All this time & Fragile lists... I have think it could be interesting to rate the rarity of the items. I have made the following categories:

C Common
U Uncommon
R Rare
VR Very Rare
ER Extremely Rare
ITF Impossible To Find

Tell me if you think I am wrong with the rate... will extend this to other lists when I got time...

11.12.01 12.20 AM
OK, I have resolve all my problem, and everything is back to normal. I have a lot of other things to do, and so on, the site is not updated as often as I want, and also, as you want. No issue is previous to december, only some updates... sorry.

I have
updated :
The ...All this time list : just update the list... 30 CD are now listed!
The Fragile list : just update the list... 15 CDs are now listed!
I have update my Sell list, with a lot of ...all this time items for sell... check it.

It is rumoured that the new single from ...all this time will be "
If you love somebody set them free"! Why not Dienda? Whatever, Toni Carbo tells he heard about a spanish promo CDs...

The DVD is simply fantastic, but also soooo frustrating! It is interesting to know what Sting think about all this, but the interview are over the music... The project is exellent, and the concert is superbe... the bonus tracks are great too : Fill her up, Englihsman, Every little thing & Desert rose, all recorded on 10th September. Strange that Desert rose is not featuring as a bonus tracks but only available from the documentary...
Whatevere, if you have a DVD player, buy it, it is a fantastic moment...

I have update my graphic/working site at www.imaginaires.fr.st

30.11.01 9.54 AM

29.10.01 08.04PM

It seems there will be different colours for the different issues of the All this time album... Check the all this time site for details. Tom Rose tells me that the catalogue # of the german release will be: 493 156-2 (info: motor-music), it has a yellow "S" in Sting and yellow dots. huh! Also, Kenneth Nielsen just got the EU promo and tells me: is comes in carboard, catalog nr. STADV1 Inner center of disc says, made in the uk. Ups, disc is green with white text. The front sleeve has a yellow S insted of the red one. As I wait for the UK promo, will be if it is the same before putting it in the All this time list.

Also, Greg Bratton has received the UK 2 mixes promo CDr of Fragile... check the Fragile list for details...

It is now official, there will be NO release of Fragile in the UK!!!

I still haven't received the Fragile singles yet, but Erwin Kempen tells me that the versions of Desert rose & Fill her up are the ones from the rare Brand new day Bs-die promo CDR, and Kenneth Nielsen tells me that Fill her is different, without country;, and on Desert rose theres no lyrics, only stings chor (in a way that not been heard before), it nice, but nothing special !...

Kenneth Nielsen has a chat with Ben Liebrand about the mixes he dones... very interesting! Read it in the specials section...

New Sting site:
French fan club web site is back at http://www.stingassociation.fr.st, a new info site is at http://www.talknet.de/~desertrose (in german and english)

26.10.01 10.21PM
Patrik Nevyn send me scan and info on the European promo CDr of the All this time album: I'm not sure it was made in Sweden but I got it from the swedish branch of Universal Records. This version has the same errors as the german one (1000 years, IYL SOMEONE), and it also says "Med About You", I guess this could be the case with the German version too. It has an A&M logo instead of the Universal logo and "World Track Listing Album" is printed beneath "...all this time". See scan in the all this time album list.

Also, Kenneth Nielsen tells me that "Fill her up" from the Fragile single is total diffrent, everything changed - the contry sound is missing ! Strange it is still not released in the UK...

Yeasterday night, Sting plays in NY in a "All this time" style the following tracks : Englishman - Set them free - Thousand years Perfect love - All this time - Field of gold - Brand new day - Fragile - Every breath - If I ever ... find more on sting.com & stingus

I have received a copy of the 16 tracks CD... and heard The hounds of winter, Mad about you & Moon over bourbon street... and it is crazy how good it is!!! The hounds is my favourit, definitly!


24.10.01 5.46PM
AAAAhhh... As I was moving to a new appartment, I was not on the web during 4 days... I come back & there is 3 All this time promo CD (2 US and 1 UK), the Fragile single are different, and i have 82 emails... OK, leave me some hours to update and to answer to everyone! To all the info check the site of Tom at northnorthwest

Also, I received my a copy of the all this time show... it sounds that like the concert any fan know Sting can do, but he can't as most people who come to his concerts want to hear song as they know it (hope what I try to say is understandable).

Even if it is not as good as we can expect if the US events haven't happened (Sting is sad, he tells it...), it is a superb recording. What I think:
Fragile : I like this new arragment, nice ot hear a new version after 10 years of the same version at the end of each concert...
A thousand years / perfect love : I was one of the first people who discovers this version in Montreux in Jully, and they have improve it. I could never ever hear the album version of Perfect love without thinking it is a mistake hearing what it becomes.
All this time : so unusual... hard to go in it as it is baffling... but good!
Don't stand so close to me : superbe, with the cello... one of my favourit...
When we dance : the cello part in the middle... directly into heart ! Favourit!
Dienda : superb, great that everybody can know this superbe song know it is on an official release.
Roxanne : aaaaaahhhh
...
If you love... : very nice jazzy version
Brand new day : in the "All this time" jazzy style, amazing how this song change...
Fields of gold : equal as itself...
Shape of my heart : one of my favourit song, so, exellent, but too short!
If I ever lose : equal as usual live version, except the improvisation at the end...
Every breath you take : boring!

I update all this time and fragile pages soon... email me to suscribe to the mailling list and know when it is done...


20.10.01 6.09PM
There
is a new promo CD on ebay, and it is a 1 track promo. I ask the seller and it comes in cardboard sleeve and has the catalogue number 9824. So I suppose it is a French promo as French promo CD has a 4 numbers catalogue number and mostly come in cardboard sleve. Nothing is sure...
The Fragile 3 tracks promo is at $80 at 3h from the end... and the soul cages single digipack issue is at $150 on German ebay at 2 days from the end!!! Hey, collectors, are you crazy!!! Nobody would want to sell a Fragile promo at a reasonable price after that !

15.10.01 9.34AM
The Fragile Spanish promo CD is on sell on ebay... check a picture in the latest items section.

Tom Rose has received his promo CD of All this time. It is a German promo CDr (I hate these promo CDr... I want real promo!!). Here come the details:
"here´s a digishot from the all this time promo. it´s true: the cover is plain white, nothing on it.

the cd itself was made by someone obviously not a sting fan: it says 1000 years instead of a thousand years, if you love someone instead of if you love somebody.

it seems there´s no catalogue # on the disc - and no a&m logo! as you can see, there´s a motor.de (the german distributor) and a universal logo on it - plus the tracklist. around the hole in the middle it says: manufactured by record partner gmbh - telephone, fax and email. there´s 2 numbers on the disc - which i guess don´t necessarily mean they are the catalogue #: a big on on the transparent side saying DC07037041241 1 80B1. another one on the back says AMCR80SG351 A090010181. who knows. "

See a scan in the latest items section. Also he says that about the live performance:

"the sound is great, though. as you can hear, my enthusiasm is limited - i think through most of the songs you hear a sadness that isn´t supposed to be there. it definitely sounds like the songs were intended to be light and joyous - but it´s different - and you can hear it.

my definite favourites from first listening are dienda (song by kenny kirkland sting says) - sounds a little like "my one and only love", the hounds of winter is fantastic as is "don´t stand so close to me" if it wasn´t some strange medley (this time with when we dance) - again. roxanne is arranged great, too. brand new day is arranged very surprisingly - but veeeeeery smooth :-D - if i ever lose my faith - great stuff. after all: cool. but it´s so damn sad that you hear what happened that day all though the album. or only i do. i don´t know."

I just here a part of the songs on phone with Martin (he has a good web connection, not me), and for me, it seems exellent, but I will tell you more when I have the recording.


The sell list has been updated, some new Sting & Police items for sell...

11.10.01 7.45PM
Tom rose send me scan of the Fragile UK promo CD he received, and it is slightly different to the first one I show you here.

As he said the disc design si diffrent but the coulours of the cover seems too. One is Sting dark blue, Fragile light grey, the new one is Sting light grey Fragile light blue...

Check the details on UK CD1 (FRAGILE1) and on UK CD2 (STCDP1) and to see the very nice back sleeve. I suppose that one is for promotion in UK, the second one for promotion in Europe...

It seems it is Tom Rose who will find all the new promo... he got the first All this time album promo: "someone offered me an all this time promo today. he told me on the phone it comes in a neutral, unprinted white cardboard. it´s still sealed so he couldn´t tell me what´s written on the disc. i expect the item next monday or tuesday. more when i have it."


It is more Tom rose who is updating out of print that me :-)

I have chnage my graphic portfolio site at www.imaginaires.fr.st ! Sting fans that you are will notice that I use the design of the Soul cages jute bag US promo CD for the fonts....

Martin Profile is now online... next month it would be... Tom rose :-)

11.10.01 9.00AM
Another Fragile UK promo CD on ebay : "this is a three track CD in mint condition and never played. Track ONE - Fragile (live), Track TWO - Fragile (studio), Track THREE - Fragile (studio edit).
"....

Sean I.M Potter tell me the UK promo CD, probabaly the blue one, as the catalogue number FRAGIL1.

I think A&M will make us going crazy... And it is only the start!

10.10.01 8.30PM
Tom Rose send me this message :

i´ve received my fragile promo cd today. it´s slightly different from the one you show on your site. the disc has the catalogue-number STCDP1. 2 tracks: fragile (radio edit 3:44) and fragile (album version) 4:10. the songs are definitely from the same night (stings guitar is slightly out of tune on both versions) but are mixed / mastered slightly differently.
dominics guitar is definitely a little more on the left on the radio edit. and mid-frequencies are a little fed up (which is kind of normal for radio edits).

the disc itself is completely white with "sting" in silver (cut through the painting = not painted) and "fragile" in light blue like on the cover which is the same as yours.

The October issue is ready, with an article about the 10 rarest Sting promo CD. Check the disco section for pictures and info. Ialso add some scan to the rarest album section.

The fragile page is ready, and will be update each time the info come to me. If you find a Fragile or All this time, please write to me!

Sean I.M Potter brings us this very interesting info on All this time promotion made by A&M. The best part is that a special CD-Rom will be issued:

"The campaign will start with a Parkinson special on November 3rd (interview & performance of 5 songs).

On November 4th there will be a national covermount with the Mail On Sunday (the lead track will be "Fragile" & there will be CDROM elements with Sting talking about the album) .

Cover of Saturday Times magazine
October 20th Q Live review next issue

The campaign will continue with a Radio 2 in Concert Special that will transmit on either the 10th or 17th November.

A TOTP 2 Special will go out on 14th November (repeated 17th November)

We are awaiting confirmation of CD:UK (10th November) & Breakfast with Frost (11th November) The Concert itself will be broadcast on either C4 or BBC in the run up to Xmas.

Finally, the album will be launched on the 5th with £100,000 of TV advertising

Here comes the track list of the 2 UK CDs:
CD single cat No: 497 625-2
1) Fragile live (album version)
2) Desert Rose (demo version)

CD maxi cat No: 497 626-2
1) Fragile live (album version)
2) Desert Rose (demo version)
3) Fill Her Up (original version)
Enhanced track "After The Rain" new video version

Thanks to Stingus for this info. But it is strange that the first CD is the same as second one, but with 2 tracks instead of 4! I do not understand. It is a 2 tracks & a 4 tracks single, and not a 2 CDs set??

The October issue will be on line next monday with the september article about rarest CD promo album. Check this site often!

03.10.01 11.44PM

As you can see, I have update and change out of print... again. This up frame is more usfull than the other one for people who have a little screen. Also, I have update and change some things :
My interview with Sting : read all the details on this amazing meeting.
My sleeves : the sleeves I have design for my Sting items.
Links : update the links to Sting page.
Special features : article about the rare Sting tracks not included in my collection.

Sting has performed Fragile at the Amercia : a tribute to heroes broadcast.

Sean Potter has find a Desert rose CD single released in... Australia! It states it on the disc, so it finnaly exists. It is the same as German.


The superbe web site of tom, northnorthwest is online, very nice, amazing work. I am really impressed, congratulations...

On friday morning, me and my wife werre going to Toulouse. 20 minutes before we arrive, a chemical industrial structure has explosed and killed 20 peoples, and hurst 300. World is crazy this time. We are safe but a little shock. So, we spend 2 days inside the apartment, I am fed up with the world!

18.09.01 12.22PM
Seeing what happen in USA on 11.09, and as our plane was previous on 12.09, my wife and I prefered cancel our trip as we won't know what could happen after this tragedy. There is no words to explain that, and all my thought are going to peoples who lost someone in this tragedy.

As you know, the acoustic Sting concert was previous the same day... the album won't finaly be called "On such a night", seeing what happen, but "All this time". The cover picture here would probably change. Jeremy make a review of it that you can read on www.stingUs.net. A lot of songs werre canceled, but the final set list was : Fragile / 1000 years-Perfect love gone wrong / All this time / Seven days / Hounds of winter / Don't stand so close to me / When we dance / Dienda / Roxanne / Set them free / Brand new day / Fileds of gold / Shape of my heart / If I ever lose / Every breath you take / Message in a bottle.

All songs werre played in special version, but read Jeremy review for details. Thanks to Karel for the scan of the cover.

The album will be released on November 5th internationnaly, and on the 20th in USA & Canada.

Note that sting us adresse is now http:// www.stingUs.net

I will take another week off, Iam just here for today, I won't answer to email until 24.09 as previous.

26.07.01 10.12 AM
Click here to see some pictures of me and my wife during the best days of our lives... OK, next update will be about Sting, I promise :-)

23.07.01 8.29 PM
I am back from this amazing concert in Montreux Jazz Festival. My friend Martin makes an exellent revue of it, read it.

For my personal point of view, I was amazed by the acoustic medley "Thousand years - perfect love", one of the best live moment I ever live, but I was so desepointed by the rest of the show. I mean, Perfect love, Ghost story werre fbulous, but I was expecting so much more... It was an exellent concert, happy to have met all of you guys, sorry that Frederique, my wife, finnally can't come, but she would have hate the 45°C during 3 hours...

Still working on out of print v4.0, probably on line in August. Full of news, really more easy to navigate, I promise...


18.07.01 10.42 PM
I am really sorry with the lack of update this month... I was working on a personal graphic web site which present my photography et graphic work. You can check it at www.imaginaires.fr.st. If you like it leave me a message in the guestbook.

I am really happy as I have, at least found 2 tickets for the Sting Montreux concert on saturday, and at a good price...
It is not sure that Frederique, my wife, can come, but I cross my fingers.

As some people ask me, I will put some picture of the wedding on a web page...

Now we know the Sting acoustic concert will be in his home town in Italy, how much could cost a ticket on ebay if there is one for sell?

Concerning out of print, I am thinking of change this home page, as a lot of people are lost in it with the left to right navigation...
So, the next update will probably be the version 4.0 of the web site.

My friend Martin close the hounds of winter web site and open A millon doors to eternity... check it!

I am really sorry to know that Stingchronicity is closed, but I totally understand the position of Dave and Wendy. We do these sites as we are fan and want to share our passion with other fans. All that we want is that make people happy... it is not a job, we are not pay for it, we even take on our fammily time to do this passion... so on I totally understand how bad it could be to receive negative feedback. Dave and Wendy, I totally support you and I hope you change your mind.

09.07.01 1.19 PM
I am back from my honey moon... the wedding was perfect and I want to thank all the people who write to congratulate us...
Leave me some days to answer to my 90 emails, hunt on ebay, order all the picture from the wedding, and I will be back for some updates...


20.06.01 9.21 AM
There will be very few update from now to the middle of Jully simple because... I marry me! The wedding celebration will be on Saturday 30th, and so one, I have thousand things to prepare! It is a full time job! So, no jully issue until the end of jully...

16.06.01 9.29 PM

But a professional CDr with the same writing printed on the disc, and a mastering studio back sleeve! The disc is in fact white with black writing instead of silver!

10.06.01 11.25 PM
The June issue is ready... and I have made some changes on the site. There is now a new section, that you can find on the right of this texte file, called simply "the discography" which contains the monthly articles, and scans of the rarest Sting items.

So, the june article is the list of the 20 rarest Sting CD singles! It takes me hours to make it and to scan all this items, and I hope you will be happy to see items you
do not know that exists! Sorry, no picture this month, too much to do with the article! Check the monthly issue for all the details.

Also, I have made a new splash screen...
and so on, made a wallpaper... download it here!


Sting us has change... and, an amzing thing, is that Karel choose the same image as my new disco page & the new index, but I have to tell I do it before I see the new version! Check the best site to have news...

There is a Spanish promo CD sampler of Ally Mac Beal soundtrack which features Every breath you take duet as first track.

Also, the new album of Cheb Mami features a track called "Le Rai c'est chich" which seems to features Sting on backing vocals. There is a promo CD of this track.


02.06.01 10.25 AM
The June issue will be online next sunday. The final list of the 20 rarest and most interesting CD singles will be ready soon. I hope I would have time to put the Best of pages too.

I have received the Mercury Falling Virgin box set and it is one of the most amazing and beautifull item from my collection. It was in fact issue in Japan and not in UK as I think. Check picture and details here.


I have received the South Africa remastered CD of The soul cages which is slightly different. The back sleeve & disc are different, check details and scan here. In fact, all the Sting album have been reissued in RSA as remastered CD, with the usual video bonus. Here comes the catalogue numbers:

Dream Of The Blue Turtles STARCD6579
Bring On The Night STARCD6581
Nothing Like The Sun STARCD6577

Soul Cages STARCD6582
Ten Summoner's Tales STARCD6580
Fields Of Gold STARCD6145
Mercury Falling 540 998-2
Very Best of Sting & The Police SSTARCD6358
Strangley, Mercury has the same catalogue number that European issue.


I also have a chinese issue of Ten summoner's tales which is different to the other one, and which is probably a bootleg as it is so bad designed. Check details and scan.
The DTS reissue of Nothing like the sun comes in a special package, scan willl come soon.

There is a Emperor New's groove promo Sampler from Taiwan. The CD comes in cardboard envelope, released by Disney. It contains My funny Friend And Me - Sting 2. My Funny Friend and Me-Sting (spanish version) 3. Perfect World-Tom Jones 4.Chinese track. Catalogue number is AVDCD700069. I do not consider it as a Sting single as it contains tracks by other artists, but I think it was interesting to talk about it.


30.05.01 10.12 AM
http://sting.alfbank.ru is an amazing russian web site, so well designed! Even if all is written in russian and that I do not understand 1 word, it has a very nice picture gallery, and a discography that list a 1991 strange fan box set!!

As I know many people will be there, if you happen to know someone which as tickets and that is finally not going, PLEASE, write me. This is extremly important to me, as my friend Martin have one ticket and that

My funny friend and me
Brand new day
Brand new day single
Desert rose
After the rain has fallen
Brand new day special releases
Mercury falling
Ten summoner's tales
The soul cages

What will be next? Submit me your point of view.

I have received the Australian My Funny friend and me promo CD. the sleeve is the second one, as Taiwan issue, and the back sleeve is the same as the sleeve, not the one of the German CD.

Sell lists have been updated.


09.05.01 8.58 PM

08.05.01 10.32 PM
Sting.com exists!!! Very nice pictures, it promise a good site for fans, not a good site to choose a computer :-)

08.05.01 4.32 PM
A new blue splash screen... tell me if you prefer the red one or the green one...

I have put scan of a Chinese / Taiwan compilation called "thousand years". It is probably a bootleg.

Also, Kenneth Nielsen send me scan of the After the rain has fallen 2 tracks promo US CD he has find. It is the same as the one listed in the After the rain list (AMRR-10181-2n, blue disc, with Video edit & tin tin out edit), the first promo US CD issued before the remix version, but his copy comes with blue and white back inlay... I am looking for this one. See it.

It seems after the rain won't be issued in the US as a single, even if the video was shoot. I do NOT understand.

Stingchronicity annonce the live album!

05.05.01 9.18 AM
The May issue is ready earlier than I said, but without the Ten summoner's tales list, sorry!

In this month issue:

Good luck.


03.05.01 9.18 AM
The May issue will be online on monday 07th, with an article on the japanese phone cards, new pictures in the gallery... and maybe, if I have time, ten summoner's tales page!

I have received the Fender CD rom, and it is a very nice item. It comes in CD single jewel case, but the inlay is square. The video is a report about compaq computer used during the brand new day tour, with Sting talking of it. It is more a long compaq commercial than a real report about the tour, but it is interesting. It runs around 4 minutes. There is alos texte and picture... Kipper with his compaq computer, Sting with his compaq computer, Kim turner with his compaq computer ... :) Thanks a lot to Rodolfo to his help to find this item.

04.04.01 11.48 PM
The April monthly issue is on line, but without the pictures and the article, as I won't have the time to do it this month. But, I have put the list of all the releases of My funny friend and me known so far.

The acoustic live album is now confirmed and it is probably the greatest news I have heard. I am really happy Sting goes back to what it do the best, acoustic live!!

As seen on Stingchronicity: people who purchase the Fender Sting Precision Bass receive a copy of this Compaq/Fender CD-ROM which goes behind the scenes on the Brand New Day tour and is said to include footage from one of Sting's shows last year in Hawaii. Take a look on Wendy & Dave web site in the news page, for a picture.

Concerning My funny friend and me, there is a promotional German CD which includes english & spanish versions in jewel case, for which I will give details as soon as I get it & it seems there is also an australian promo CD. See the complete list.

I have work on an other web site, of the band lunatic age (nothing to do with Sting). Take a look.

30.03.01 09.19 AM
Karel, from StingUs-team, send me this amazing info on a possible acoustic album release: (nothing is sure yet!!!)

There will be a live album from Sting ready for commercial release in the Christmas period!
Unlike any other past CD, it is the plan is to record a concert at an intimate venue in Italy in front of a 300 capacity audience made up of fans, contest winners and record company staff.
The set will include acoustic guitars, piano, organ, etc. with potential appearances by special guests (yet to be confirmed) such as Cheb Mami and Branford Marsalis.
The tentative release date for the live album will be November 5th.

The first single has a planned radio date of September 17th followed by a commercial release date of October 15th.

The video for the first single is scheduled to be ready on September 16th.

As soon as we have confirmation of the title for the live album or first single a circular will be sent out to let you all know.

As you see in the details under this article the tracklisting for this live album looks very strong and includes hits by the Police as well as Sting.

A brand new track composed by Sting for this record is planned to be a down-tempo ballad for Christmas.

Tracklist:
Message in a Bottle
Roxanne Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic
Every Breath You Take

The portuguese version of Perfect love gone wrong exists. It was release on the brazilan reissue of Brand new day album. Here come the details send by Darren Gray.
"
I thought you'd like to hear some news about the Brazilian re-issue of the BND album. It was re-issued this year (to coincide with Rock In Rio?), although the sleeve would have you believe it was issued in 1999.
The CD has the Portuguese version of Perfect Love (listed on the sleeve as "Duet with Zelia Duncan") and has a bonus track Desert Rose (Melodic Club Mix Radio Edit).
The 'old' version of Perfect Love doesn't appear at all and track 7 is Prelude to End of the Game. There is no EPK on the CD.
Cat no is 60694906852. The booklet has the Portuguese lyrics instead of French for Perfect Love.

Ebay end some of my auctions...

We werre talking, by email, with Kenneth Nielsen, of the rare Mad about you & Fragile remixes made by Ben Liebrand, and he write me this amazing message:
I found the Fragile remix, 160 kbps 44kHz. Running time 6:30. I think it's great, and its very well. In fact it's really reworked, added drums piano and more.
Well I been in contact with Ben Liebrand and he says that he did all three mixes. Englishman In NY - Fragile - and Mad About You. I asked him why the 2 other tracks newer was release by Sting, He tells me that he thought that they were !.
We know they ain't. He consider releasing the on his on label, but have to get some proper licences.
About: Mad About You, he writes: "It was an official remix mad from the original multitracks, and was approved for release by sting. Watch for the bass slide which appears 2 or 3 times in this mix. Listen to the mix over your speakers (not over your headphone) It should appear way outside the normal stereo field in your left ear.
About Fragile: Fragile was one of the weekly minimixes on dutch radio Just as Englishman in NY. I've been told there is a 12" maxi or CD which also holds Fragile, but I'm not sure. I'll try to get it released..... I'll have to get them licensed properly first
Greetings Ben"
Thanks, Kenneth, for these amazing info!

At least, I have put the collector corner... but it is only the first step. I have put a lot of rare items on ebay for sell. Check the collector corner page for the list, or go directly at my ebay seller list.

21.03.01 9.21 PM
Stingoo!! :a very good & usfull job made by Attis.

21.03.01 7.42 PM
After the rain has fallen could be released in the USA!! Why I said that? Because, I have found 2 new USA promo CD of the track, with a total new remix version. Also, there for sell on ebay an add for the track which states "The follow-up to the smash Desert Rose". Whatever, nothing is sure. The promo CD comes with a grey & black back inlay, the promo CDr comes without catalogue number anda black & white back inlay. (Thanks to Greg for the scan).

Greg also find the Mexican issue of the brand new day album. And also, the BMG issue. As he said to me "BMG Music Service is a US record club that makes releases normally the same as the US release but with their own catalog no. printed on the disc and back artwork. The only releases they don't offer are Bring On The Night and Nada Como El Sol. Never really thought of these as collectors items until I recently noticed a Beatles discography in Goldmine magazine and it included some BMG listings. The BMG CD's are:
Dream Of The Blue Turtles - catalog no. D150266
Nothing Like The Sun - catalog no. D273965
Soul Cages - catalog no. D125218
Ten Summoners Tales - catalog no. D101334
Fields Of Gold Best Of - catalog no. D106357
Mercury Falling - catalog no. D112208
Very Best Of Sting & The Police - catalog no. D121344
Brand New Day - catalog no. D131425

Also, I have received the Turkish promo blue jean CD-rom. It is a nice item, even if the disc interface is badly designed. A funny thing as that some of the pictures from the gallery are directly taken from my old web 10 site as they still have the border I have put! The most interesting thing as that it contents videos of All this time / Brand new day / Englishman in New York / Fragile / If I ever lose / shapoe of my heart / Fields of gold / and the very rare coulour video of Mad about you.


15.03.01 7.28 PM

The march issue will be ready on 11.03.01, as I am preparing a photographies exposition (nothing to do with Sting!) which gives me a lot of work to do.


I have, at least, received the Murlyn remix promo CD of Brand new day, and it is an UK promo CD and not German as I was thinking. The country of pressing is writting in the center of the playing side, scared in the disc.

28.01.01 7.12 PM
A rainy sunday... so I have work a lot on the site! But you won't see it right now, I have some things to fix.

The "My funny friend and me" second promo CD, which comes in a white sleeve with black writting, is a CD and not a CD-r as I have think. It is, in fact, issued by Disney record company, and the catalogue number is WDR 03MS365000.
There is a lso a promotional DVD of the movie, issued by Disney. It comes in black DVD case with a little picture in the middle.
The movie will be released in France on March the 28th... and the French title will be "Kuzco, l'empereur Megalo" (which means 'Kuzco, the megalomaniac emperor'... nothing to do with the original title!!!). Whatever, I hope the song will be recorded in French too. It seems it has been recorded in Italian... more info on Stingchronicity.

Antoni Carbo have found a promotional cassette of the brand new day remix album. Of course, it is japanese, and come with a purple sleeve with japanese writtings. It contains only 6 tracks : Brand new day (murlyn mix) / Desert rose (melodic club mix) / After the rain (tin tin out radio mix) - A thousand years (Times is that which ends mix) / Brand new day (Cornelius mix) / Perfect love... gone wrong (featuring Lisa from M-flo). I do not know yet if the thousand year remix is the same... It is writting, on the inlay, that the other tracksd from the album will be Desert rose (filet dub mix) / After the rain (Tin tin out club mix) & Perfect love (Brazilian mix with portuguese rap) !!!! Do not know if it finaly exist!

Some news...
My funny friend and me Taiwan CDs
This song was finally released as single in Taiwan. It seems it is a limited edition, and, added of the edit and album version, it contains the Spanish version which, for the moment is not available anywhere else. The sleeve is very nice and the catalogue number is 70069.

My funny friend second US promo CD It seems there is another promo CD of the song, which comes in black and white sleeve. It contains only one version of the song, and is probably a CDr. More news when I can.

Brand new day 2 CD set reissue.
The brand new day album have been reissued as a 2 CD set. The second disc contains “A thousand years”, “Desert rose” & “After the rain” live, “Windmills of your mind” and “Desert rose - melodic club mix radio edit”. I suppose it is an Australian issue, but I am not sure yet.

30.11.00 < 10.38 PM
Another single of “After the rain“ has been issued! And this is a suprise as it is a French issue! Someone has ask me to buy a copy of the French single, and I go to my usual shop to do it, but was a surprise when I see that the single is not the same... it includes “After the rain - tin tin out edit” as second track instead of Desert rose! So, the first issue, was really a “Limited edition”. The catalogue number of this one is 497 323-2, usual cardboard sleeve. the sleeve is clearer than the other issue... I have 2 copies for sell, write to me at outofprint@wanadoo.fr. Also, I have received an extra copy of the very rare French 6 tracks sampler. I have put it for sell on ebay.

29.11.00 < 0.22 AM
The last weeks were crazy at work, and I haven’t the time for out of print V3! So, the new version of this site will be finnaly on line in January 2001...
Sean Potter write me that : Today, I picked up a promo "Polydor New release vol 6 November/December" - tracks 12 is entitled "A thousand years" which would indicate an imminent UK release!

24.11.00 < 10.35 PM
Still working on the new version of the web site. No news... Seems the picture was missing on this page, here it comes...

10.11.00 < 8.14 PM

some other news... French DVD & VHS So, the Brand new day tour DVD was well released in France, but it is the same as the European release, with the 15 extra footage and the sticker on front that states it includes the new single “Thousand years”. But, it also was released as a video... probabaly in secam system.
The disappointing Emperor's New groove The Sting Disney soundtrack so expected will finally only includes 2 Sting tracks, and one of it is a duet... it seems “My funny friend & me” won’t be released as a single... I am disappointed! I was expected a entire soundtracks as Phil Collins do for Tarzan... lazy Sting! Most of the promotional US single of “My funny friend & Me” comes with a press kit which includes a Sting b/w picture, and 2 page about the movie and 2 slides...

 

28.10.00 < 1.02 AM
I know that I tell that since a long time, but the site is not updated as often as I would want... so much to do... but I have to tell it again!

DVD... more info
The BND tour DVD has been issued in France and I have heard it contains extra footage... around 15’... but as I haven’t buy or received any issue, I can not be sure. For the moment, I have order or see the Japanese, USA, & German issues... I have to check for the French one if it is different from German/Europe... The German issue comes with a sticker which states “includes the new single Thousand years” which would confirm the rumor of the 2 CD set issued in the UK in December...

Emperor’s new’ groove soundtrack
The promo US single CD is a picture disc without front inlay. You can see the picture on Dave & Wendy web site at www.stingchronicity.co.uk . As they state “The full soundtrack for the movie, The Emperor's New Groove, has a release date of November 14. Sting wrote the music for the soundtrack with Dave Hartley. Sting performs two tracks - the aforementioned "My Funny Friend And Me," which was released to radio stations Oct. 23, and a duet with Shawn Colvin "One Day She'll Love With Me". On the collector side, there is a promotional press kit which includes the complete album, 2 slides and info..... the site will be updated each time I have more info, and a special page will probably be added, so visit often for info.....

The Mighty 1-track promo CD single
Ruediger Hoeckel has found this promo CD : THE MIGHTY- USA - 61868 30036 2 3 promo, picture CD (poster of the movie), “The Mighty starring Sting” written on CD, remix version (not on soundtrack album), with sticker on back of case... thanks for the info... a copy is welcome :)

Desert rose Canadian promo CD
Sean received it and gives me the following info : Jewel case with no front cover, but there is a back pure white with black writing with normal details. silver CD black writing "Sting Desert rose with remixes" - Cat no UMCR41342 - radio edit (3'54) / LP version (4'46) / Melodic club radio edit (4'44) / Extended remix (9'20)... lucky you!

19.10.00 < 10.38 PM

16.10.00 < 9.49 PM
The promo CD of “My Funny Friend and Me” has been issued in USA by Disney. It contains 4:25 Radio Edit and a 4:36 Album Version.

13.10.00 < 7.42 PM
Sorry for the late update, but I have too much to do. I am learning a new way to make web site, which will improve the use of out of print... I know, you would prefer I work on the lists and details, but it is me who decide :-)

The USA promo CD of Desert rose with catalogue number INTR-10093-2 seems to be the same as the first one, but the tracks are not in the same order (LP version is the third track, Melodic Club mix radio edit the second one!!).

I have found a new an unknown promotional French CD of the Brand new day album! It is a Sampler CDr, but this one contains 6 tracks instead of 5. It comes without sleeve and with the same design as the French promo CDr but it is written “Sting - découvrez 6 titres de son nouvel album - sortie le 28 septembre” (discover 6 tracks from his new album - issued on 28 September). The tracks are written like that : 1. 1000 years / 2. desert rose / 3. Big lie - Small world / 4. after the rain / 5. Perfect love / 6. Brand new day. And, the best part, is that the versions are not exactly the same, the transition between each songs hasn’t been made. It can be particularly heard between Big lie & After the rain.
There is also a complete promotional album CDr issued in France. It was issued for the Fnac stores. It comes with special sleeve, the same as the usual album which states “heard the new Sting album before everyone”.... or something like that. I have no other details and still looking for this one.

01.10.00 < 11.59 PM
I have seen a second promo CD of Desert rose from US. The only difference is the catalogue number which is INTR-10093-2 instead of INTR-10015-2... more details when I can.
Freaks Issue # 53 is ready. In this Issue : Ghost in the machine demos... write Erwin at freaks@chello.nl to subscribe. There is a promotional Euro CD of the song “Don’t walk away” by Youssou’n dour featuring Sting, in very nice sleeve.

Site of the month : http://www.adreamofreign.cjb.net no need to speak, take a look and you will understand!

28.09.00 < 8.24 AM
Still listening the remix of thousand years... I really like it. You take the intro and the end, and you put the original version in the middle, and it is the best version ever!

Sean I.M Potter find a Canadian promo of Desert rose, here come the details: Jewel case with no front cover but there is a black/purple white with black writing with normal details. Silver CD black writing "Sting Desert rose (with remixes)" - Cat no UMCR41342 - Radio edit / LP version / Melodic club mix radio edit - Extended remix

18.09.00 < 11.29 AM
Sorry for not having updated the site last week, but I was too busy. I have start a web designer formation, so don’t be surprise if there is changes in the site during the next months.

I have received the brand new day japanese remix album today. Surprisingly, the sleeve is not has bad as I have think. It really fit with the music, even if the colours are not the best ones. I have listen it, and here is my point of view on the version we do not know:
Brand new day Cornelius mix : e very great version, with a great acoustic (kind of acoustic) intro. I really like this version.
A thousand years - Bill laswelle mix: The first surprise is that this version runs 12’26. I have think it would be hard to remix this version, but the result is simply amazing. The intro is so good... the only bad part is in the middle, has it is a little “boum boum”, but the global is an exellent version of this track.
Perfect love gone wrong - lisa m-flow mix : I have think I would prefer this version as I won’t understand the rap.... how wrong I was ! It is worst... it is impossible to listen to it... I can describe it.. The only good thing is that Sting do not sing is part has on the original version, he has re-record it, and sings it in a different, and good way. I have received an extra copy of this CD, and sell it on ebay... follow the link. To have a more precise idea of the sleeve and back sleeve, and to see the sleeve of the best buy CD, click here! A better presentation will be made with the next update...


10.09.00 < 10.22 AM

The catalogue number will be (POCM 1300) and the full track listing is : Brand New Day (Murlyn Mix) / Desert Rose (Melodic Club Mix) / Desert Rose (Filter Dub Mix) / After The Rain Has Fallen (Tin Tin Out Radio Mix) / After The Rain Has Fallen (Tin Tin Out Club Mix) / A Thousand Years (Remixed by Bill Laswell) / Brand New Day (Cornelius Mix) / Perfect Love Gone Wrong (Brazilian Mix with Portuguese Rap) / Perfect Love Gone Wrong (feat. Lisa from m-flo).
3- Germany has issued 2 new single for After the rain!!!
Here comes the details (thanks Darren):
After The Rain Has Fallen (Video Edit) / (Tin Tin Out Edit) EU, 497 323-2, orange sleeve (same as UK CD2), orange disc with black titles, jewel case [yes, this is not in a card sleeve!!!]
After The Rain Has Fallen (Video Edit) / (Tin Tin Out Mix) / Seven Days (Live) / Desert Rose (Radio Edit) / Desert Rose (Video) EU, 497 370-2, same sleeve as UK CD1, black disc with white/orange titles, jewel case.
The only difference with the 497 327-2 issue is that it contains Desert rose instead of Shape of my heart. I do not know yet if the video is well the Desert rose one, or the mistaken After the rain one as on the 497 327-2 CD...
4- out of print updates: I have put the After the rain has fallen complete list... also, as a lot of people have asked me, I have put back the list and details on BND album, desert rose and BND single, but they are not finished in design... but it is better to see an unfinished designed version that no list at all. So you can have access to the following page (not updated): Brand new day CD list Brand new day CD details Brand new day CD single details (and list with definitive design) Desert rose CD singles list & details The After the rain details list will come soon... I hope!

So, After the rain has been release in France as a 2 tracks CD. It comes in card PS with orange sleeve (good choice). There is a big sticker that states "limited edition includes Desert rose", but it has nothing of limited, it is just to write "Desert rose" bigger than "After the rain" to increase the sells. I can have a copy for you, write me for details. See all the details & picture in the news page...
I also have received the Brazilian promo singles of Desert rose & Brand new day, which have very nice design. See all the details & picture in the news page...
