Sting - I Shall Be Released 2

Review by Lisa Ghisolf

I Shall Be Released 2, the latest album by Sting, has been highly anticipated by fans of the artist. The album is a collection of covers of classic songs that have inspired Sting throughout his career.

The album kicks off with a soulful cover of "Ain't No Sunshine" by Bill Withers. Sting's voice is rich and emotive, and he brings a new depth to the already powerful lyrics.

Another standout track is "Every Breath You Take," which is given a fresh, stripped-down treatment. The song is slowed down and Sting's vocals are accompanied only by a piano, giving the song a haunting quality.

Sting's cover of Bob Dylan's "I Shall Be Released" is also a standout on the album. The song is given a reggae twist, and Sting's vocals are backed by a full band, creating a joyful and uplifting sound.
