You can only listen to ONE album for the rest of your life. Only ONE. Which album do you choose?
My pick is Sting’s Ten Summoner’s Tales.
The title is a play on Sting’s given name, Gordon Sumner and a character, “the summoner”, from Geoffrey Chaucer’s The Canterbury Tales. Aside from this album being beautifully poetic, Sting’s voice relaxes me like no other.
I’ve seen Sting in concert numerous times. Even caught The Police Reunion Tour. And, while I appreciate his early work with The Police, nothing compares to his career as a solo artist. NOTHING. I finally met this perfect Englishman almost five years ago. He wore this scarf wrapped cleverly around his neck and… Oh, I could go on and on. He made this cute little reference about my name and Dusty Springfield. How beautiful that day was.
If I could only download one song from this album {oh, the humanity}, then it would be “Shape of My Heart.”
Your turn.
ONE album. No more.
And, this is completely Thanksgiving related, because I am ever so thankful that Gordon Sumner was born on October 2, 1951.
