The Love Song and Sting

Sting - Police frontman turned solo superstar - chooses the Tracks of My Years all week with Ken. There's the daily love song, record and album of the week plus PopMaster.

Sting - Police frontman turned solo superstar - chooses the Tracks of My Years all week with Ken. The 17-time Grammy winning superstar has recently released a new single ‘If It’s Love’, taken from his brand new album The Bridge.

The Bridge was written in a year of global pandemic and finds Sting ruminating on personal loss, separation, disruption, lockdown, and extraordinary social and political turmoil.

Sting returned to the live arena in September this year with a performance in Sicily followed by concerts at the historic Odeon of Herodes Atticus in Athens. Last month he launched My Songs: The Las Vegas Residency at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace featuring a compendium of his most beloved songs with dynamic, visual references to some of his most iconic videos and inspirations.

The next two tracks Sting has chosen come from Pet Shop Boys and George Michael. Ken also has the daily love song, record and album of the week plus another round of PopMaster. If you'd like to get in touch with the show email Ken.Bruce@bbc.co.uk
