This is after my wife and I got to watch the multi-talented and the 16 times Grammy award winner\u00a0Gordon Matthew Thomas Sumner or simply known as Sting during the Emirates Airline Dubai Jazz Festival 2015.<\/p>\n<p>Being there at the Dubai Media City Amphitheater with the love of your life and listening to those songs performed live by the actual person behind all of those you&#8217;ve been listening to since childhood, from a small and fragile family Sony cassette player; is just so goddamn awesome! Very nostalgic! I really\u00a0felt how drugged I was last night by his music. I was\u00a0reminded of how crazy I was back then that I&#8217;d bring the volume racker at full blast every time I hear his songs on the radio. May it be his solo or The Police versions.<\/p>\n<p>The Englishman&#8217;s great musicality remains the same for the past decades that my wife rightfully described him as TIMELESS!<\/p>\n<p>The night was a bit cold and windy but singing along with Sting and with the rest of the thousands in attendance turned the night into a memorable one.<\/p>\n<p>From the moment he stepped out on that stage, everybody including me,\u00a0were like\u00a0belting out any line of each and every song we could remember. Walking On The Moon, If I Ever Lose My Faith In You, Fields Of Gold, Englishman In New York, Desert Rose, Shape Of My Heart, the all-time favorite Every Breath You Take, Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic, among other greatest hits of his.<\/p>\n<p>But there was this lady behind us, in her 50&#8217;s whom I reckon is a bloody solid fan because she knows and sings along with all the songs of Sting effortlessly. Good for her.<\/p>\n<p>Below are just some video clips I got using my poor and light-deprived smartphone. \ud83d\ude41 Apologies for my barking in betweens too. LOL!<\/p>\n<p><center><br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ykxbxh--Pfg?rel=0\" width=\"645\" height=\"363\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/center><strong>Jo Lawry<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As entertained as we were, one person also that made our night memorable was Sting&#8217;s back up vocal, and that is Jo Lawry. Haven&#8217;t met her nor have known her in Social Media but I&#8217;ve seen her from my elder brother&#8217;s pics during their &#8217;96 World Vision Youth Ambassadors Tour. Wow, I&#8217;d say, I am now a fan of her not just because she&#8217;s now a back-up vocals of Sting but because of her as a well-established Jazz Musician.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Round up<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The whole second night of the 3-day Emirates Airline Dubai Jazz Festival 2015 was a success which was opened by the one-of-a-kind performance of American Dancer-Violinist Lindsay Stirling.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks to Chill Out Productions for creating and organizing this event. It was our first but looking forward to the festival in the next years ahead.<\/p>\n<p>Past 12 midnight, we headed home with great smiles on our faces and an LSS of Sting&#8217;s encore song Fragile.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sting At 63 And Still At It Now I realized that coming to Dubai will not only help fulfill your dreams but also it will give you the opportunity to&#46;&#46;&#46;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":4541,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"gallery","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[30,985,17],"tags":[1003,1001,1002,999,1000],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Timeless Sting At Emirates Airline Dubai Jazz Festival 2015 - sounds funny and the not so funny<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"The timeless Sting wowed the thousands in attendance during the 2nd night of Emirates Airline Dubai Jazz Festival.
