An Insight Into Sting’s Songwriting Process – Video
I stumbled across this old video of Jools Holland interviewing Sting (circa early 80′s) today and it gives a brilliant insight into the way that Sting gathers, processes and demos his songwriting ideas before introducing it to the rest of the Police band members
Even though the video primarily focuses on how he come up with “Message In A Bottle” (one of my all time favourite songs) there are plenty of pearls of wisdom to be had if you listen for it.
Look out for the introduction of Dennis as one of the central characters in his songwriting process.
I loved every minute of this video especially the old recording technology I mean, I used to have one of those Tascam 4 track machines (ahh, memories). I hope you enjoyed it too, let me know what you think.
Until next time, happy writing,
