Performed by Gregory Porter, The Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Hans Ek and the Polar Music Prize band at the Polar Music Prize Ceremony 2017

Sting and Wayne Shorter received the Polar Music Prize on June 15, 2017 at a ceremony at Konserthuset Stockholm, Sweden. Several artists honored the Laureates together with the The Royal Stockholm Philarmonic Orchestra, led by maestro Hans Ek.
Artists performing in tribute to Sting and Wayne Shorter, included Gregory Porter, Jennie Abrahamson, Lennart Åberg, Marius Neset, José Feliciano ( • José Feliciano perform... ), Jelena Krstic, Josefin Runsteen, Ane Brun ( • Ane Brun and friends p... ), Linnea Olsson, Fredrik Ljungqvist and The Tallest Man On Earth ( • The Tallest Man On Ear... ).
José Feliciano also read the citation for Sting ( • Sting receives the Pol... ):
"The 2017 Polar Music Prize is awarded to the singer, musician and composer Sting, real name Gordon Sumner, from Wallsend in Northumberland. Sting grew up in a shipyard town in northeastern England. As a child his thoughts and dreams roamed as far as the ships that sailed from his town. Internal and external travel has also characterised his music. As a member of the trio The Police, and later as a solo artist, Sting has never sat back and rested on his laurels; he has put down his anchor in more musical harbours than perhaps any other artist of his generation. As a composer, Sting has combined classic pop with virtuoso musicianship and an openness to all genres and sounds from around the world. Sting is a true citizen of the world, who has also been indefatigable in using his position as an arena-filling artist to promote human rights."
The Polar Music Prize was founded in 1989 by the late Stig ”Stikkan” Anderson, one of the true greats in the history of popular music. As the publisher, lyricist and manager of ABBA, he played a key role in their enormous success. Its name stems from Anderson’s legendary record label, Polar Music.
The Polar Music Prize is one of the most prestigious and unique music prizes in the world, crossing over musical boundaries and awarded to individuals, groups and institutions in recognition of exceptional achievements.

    Just rip the audio from this file. Pretty easy to do with 4K Video Downloader or something similar. Then you can put it in your iTunes Folder on your computer and push it to your phone. aac format for Apple devices. Some of the people I like who sound way better live (Milk Carton Kids, Mandolin Orange, etc.) than they sound in the studio (most producers don't have the talent to capture an excellent artist in the studio), I have to grab their audio like this.

    I respect and love both artists tremendously. For those who criticize this rendition let me be clear....the mark of a true artist is not to create an exact duplication, but to elevate the work in a manner that is true to the artist performing the work. That's what Porter does. If you search for Stevie Wonder's version of Fragile, Stevie makes it his own. The true beauty is that Sting created a masterpiece capable of duplication for inspiration. THAT is the gift....it keeps on giving.

I lived in hostels and have been without friends or family during my life. This song sings straight to my heart and soul. Even now that I have found a good job and a life, this version and song reminds me of the despair i felt. Deep down you never forget. "Its probably me"

    Terry Hampton 😂😂😂 I appreciate your honesty and your appreciation for what truly is a beautiful song. The lyric is full of thought provoking meaning and the melody is charming. And although the song originated with Sting, Gregory personifies the very image he sings of--and that personification is just the opposite image that the audience, themselves, portray. I wish I could've been paid $10 for every analytical thought they had. Man, I'd of left there with my pockets bursting at the seams!!!

    Of course Gregory Porter is going to smash this, He's a singer. Sting is a songwriter first and foremost. Many of the greats in songwriting aren't entirely technically correct singers, but they sure do have bucketloads of passion in their creations in order to pull it off! All in the process of providing great songs for the wonderful singers in our world to provide us with their own unique rendition. Great stuff.

    R Back in the 80s as a kid I was cycling past the Flask Pub in Highgate and Sting almost ran me over. He slammed on the brakes, got out in a panic, and asked me profusely if I was alright. We lived just round the corner from him. He walked past us two months later on the the High Street and recognised me. He stopped to ask how I was, and apologised again even though it was actually my fault. He’s anything but a prick.

    If the night turned cold And the stars looked down And you hug yourself On the cold, cold ground You wake the morning In a stranger's coat No one would you see Ask yourself, 'Who'd watch for me? 'My only friend, who could it be?' It's hard to say it I hate to say it But it's probably me When your belly's empty And the hunger's so real And you're too proud to beg And too dumb to steal You search the city For your only friend No-one would you see You ask yourself, 'Who could it be? 'A solitary voice to speak out and set me free' I hate to say it I hate to say it But it's probably me You're not the easiest person that I ever got to know And it's hard for us both to let our feelings show Some would say I should let you go your way You'll only make me cry But if there's one guy, just one guy Who'd lay down his life for you and die It's hard to say it I hate to say it But it's probably me When the world's gone crazy, and it makes no sense And there's only one voice that comes to your defence And the jury's out And your eyes search the room One friendly face is all you need to see And if there's one guy, just one guy Who'd lay down his life for you and die It's hard to say it I hate to say it But it's probably me I hate to say it I hate to say But it's probably me I hate to say it I hate to say But it's probably me I hate to say it I hate to say But it's probably me

    This was truly a special musical moment captured here. Sting looking like the proudest, most humble singer/songwriter/musician who saw his creation transcend his hands masterfully by an absolutely outta this world rendition by the incredibly gifted Gregory Porter and this band. The audience and all of us are actually quite privileged to witness and enjoy this. This is one of the purest, most perfect exchanges of creativity ever. The emotions, the experience and the memory of it...just WOW!
