Dadrian Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 this will be a good one:there are TWO MV songs on which Sting sings the background vocals. name them!hint: tea in the sahara is NOT one of them, as there are no background vocals in that song (that i can think of, anyway).

Dadrian Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 long long way to go is one. if sting sings on mercy street, i didn't know it. i don't remember his name in the "So" liner notes. you're warm though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Ferrariman Posted August 26, 2009 Author Administrators Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 Well, Peter gabriel and Phil Collins are naturals since they all sing in a similar style. I could swear I hear 2 voices on "Mercy Street" but I could be wrong. Really no idea on the 2nd song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dadrian Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 i think mercy street is peter gabriel overdubbing his own voice many times (like mary ford did on the les paul records).you are SO close (no pun ), and that's NOT a hintthere are TWO MV songs on which Sting sings the background vocals. name them!hint: tea in the sahara is NOT one of them' date=' as there are no background vocals in that song (that i can think of, anyway).[/quote'] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Ferrariman Posted August 26, 2009 Author Administrators Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 With Sting being involved with Amnesty International I'll guess he teamed up with Gabriel to sing "Biko" and that is my final answer!

Dadrian Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 yes vicefan!! nice guess!next time you listen to "take me home", on the choruses, notice phil on the lead vocal, peter gabriel on the low part, and sting nailing the high part. you'll wonder why you never noticed before! (now that you know it)its the british solo artist trifecta! and it sounds incredible.answer recap: sting sings background vocals on "long long way to go" (50 pts to Fman) and "take me home" (50 pts to vicefan).

Frey Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 Sting sings in the background of another song that SHOULD haves been in MV: "Money For Nothing" by Dire Straits. Anyone know what Sting's Line in the song was? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dadrian Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 i want my MTV (among many others).sting received a LOT of money for the royalties of that song, and rightly so. it's the most memorable part. everything else is great, too, though. great song! great album!

Administrators timm525 Posted August 27, 2009 Administrators Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 Isn't that the song where the video is all clay people and is/was like the #2 video of all times behind MJ's Thriller? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dadrian Posted March 12, 2013 Report Share Posted March 12, 2013 The smooth jazz song playing on "By Hooker By Crook" when C+T interview the rich lady on the yacht is "Lavado" by Bill Bergman. This is not the only time we hear him play saxophone on Miami Vice. If you don't already know the other one, see if you can guess without Googling. He has a very distinctive style, which is why I'm surprised I haven't noticed him in this other song before TODAY!Anybody know the other song? Hint: it's NOT an instrumental.
