I like a pampered Brit, but I still want to hear the other.

I saw Sting in concert this past weekend, where he played "I Hung My Head." He talked a little about how he likes country music but as a person "who's not even from the south of England" he lacks a little country cred. Said that the fact the Johnny Cash had covered this song was consequnetly a proud moment for him. I thought of this exchange on CG.

I still love Sting, aging rocker that he is. I think I was possibly the youngest person there.
