This took me back to Dubai, where I had the most wonderful experiences with the people, the music and the culture. Sting has always brought it home for me.

There are few musicians that I consider true "artists" ( Peter Gabriel is one) Sting is the other. Always evolving and reaching for the next excellence. This is a marvelous song...the music and the vocals of both Sting and Cheb Mami...it takes you to a place far from where you are sitting. Glorious.
