US WEEKLY
Sting's New Groove: The almost 50 singer opens up about his six kids, six houses and why he has no need for money. Sting's life is wearing him out. All he really wants to do is go home to England to spend the holidays at his Lake House with his wife of eight years, Trudie Styler, and six children and attend his pal Madonna's wedding. But first he had to finish the Australian leg of his 'Brand New Day' tour, then fly from Sydney to London to record 'My Funny Friend and Me' in Italian for the international version of the new animated film 'The Emperor's New Groove'. Then he flew to Los Angeles with Styler to perform at the party after the film's premiere. "I'm just really tired," he says. "It's been a busy week..."

Q MAGAZINE
The Police finally self destruct. One was an 'asshole', the other a 'scumbag', and the drummer wanted to kill. Holed up on a luxury Caribbean Island to record their 'Synchronicity' album, something had to give...

ROLLING STONE
Sting - New Day Rising: Forty-nine years old and back in the Top Ten, Sting tells his tale of avoiding adult-contemporary. Over the years the beatings [by teachers] continued... By the time I had my last bottom-bashing in the fourth year, my arse was as hard as a fifty-shilling piss-pot. I had merely asked Father Boyle if the Devil had a dick." - James Berryman, from 'A Sting in the Tale', the only authorised biography of Sting (Mirage Publishers, U.K., 2000)

THE SYDNEY MORNING HERALD
Spirit in the material world: Sting likes to try new things. The hits keep coming for Sting, but all he really wants is happiness. Don't you just love a good Spinal Tap moment? I do. I'm on the phone with Sting and decide to go in hard. "Er, how are you Sting?" "Not bad," he replies. "I'm in..." He pauses. "Where am I?" The line falls silent as The Pop Star consults his mental tour itinerary. "I'm in Nagoya, Japan," he says confidently. "And it's raining..."

INSIDE BORDERS
No longer the King of Pain: an interview with Sting: This year's lesson: don't take Sting for granted. Sure, he's been around long enough - more than two decades as a recording artist, with the Police and on his own - to have reached a point where he methodically puts out albums that are methodically good and that's that. Sometimes we need a slap across the face to remind us what a unique and ambitious artist he is. That's come from 'Brand New Day', the former Gordon Sumner's eighth album since the Police packed away their badges in 1984...

THE NATIONAL POST
Tantric sting - With a 22-year rock'n'roll career under his belt, a sixth solo album and a Canadian tour coming up, Sting goes head-to-head with the rapsters and boy bands. "Shock. Horror. Titillation." Sting is on the phone from Budapest, where his 18-month world tour has settled for a one-night stand, and he's recalling the reaction to "the Tantric sex episode," wherein he, in a moment of boozy braggadocio, made a loose-lipped boast that inadvertently floated tantric thought onto the world stage...

THE PITTSBURGH POST-GAZETTE
O Sting, where is thy sting? - Renaissance man of pop likes the Backstreet Boys, deplores hip-hop lyrics, plays down the tantric sex. Sting is on the phone from Barcelona, another stop on his lengthy tour to promote his 1999 album, 'Brand New Day'. "When was the last time we talked?" he asks. Told it was last fall, just before the album's release, he notes, "Right. So it's the same bull." Well, not exactly...

THE TORONTO STAR
Behind-the-scenes a team ensures Sting stays sharp. Gordon Sumner looked remarkably at ease as he ran through his seamless two-hour set before 15,000 fans last Friday night at the Molson Amphitheatre. Perhaps too at ease. It might be because the surprisingly buff 50-ish frontman known better as Sting has essentially been on cruise control since shortly after his creative years with the Police...
