Description

When We Dance was the first of two new songs from Fields of Gold: The Best of Sting 1984-1994. In his own words – ‘This is basically a generic ballad, but it took me a year to write. I had no main idea for the song, so I came up with this love triangle.’ This is a challenging song, as many of Sting’s songs are, but worth it. The guitar part has some difficult stretches but they are manageable with care. The timing of the lyrics is crucial and will need practice but the vocal range is within reason covering just under an octave and a half.
