      the great example of this style of medieval sound is the song You Will Be My Ain True Love. Sung by the wonderful Allison Kraus, it's Sting's ear for melody and harmony that makes that song sound so haunting.

    "Happy Accidents," are what my family calls those moments when the unexpected is discovered while the original planning goes awry.😊
    Edit: He dropped me into serious flashbacks with the, "35 years." I immediately was in the back seat of a tiny little compact car. My friend's older brother is driving. We're going over a two lane curvy mountain pass on our way home from the high school. It's gruesomely hot out. No air conditioning. The windows are all rolled down. The car is overloaded. And he's shifting up and down through the gears as he's racing and braking through these crazy dips and turns, as fast as he can go. It became even more surreal with, "Murder by Numbers," blasting at high decibels with everyone screaming and screeching along with the lyrics. 😂 It was the one and only time that I hitched a ride home with him. I have no idea how I survived that trip.😳🤭😂🤣🙃

    I love sting and Dominic however, the police song riffs and drum arrangement are not stings. He wrote the song but the riffs and drum beats are Andy's and Stewart's. Roxanne was written as a bosa nova by sting. It's Stewart and Andy that turned it into the song it became. These guys just don't get the credit they deserve for the Police songs
