"'Fortress Around Your Heart' is about appeasement, about trying to bridge the gaps between individuals. The central image is a minefield that you've laid around this other person to try and protect them. Then you realise that you have to walk back through it. I think it's one of the best choruses I've ever written."

03.04.10 Transfigured Nights - Sting's musical curiosity has led him to Dowland, Schumann, Schubert, and Bach. Sting talks to Symphony magazine about one of his newest passions: the orchestra...

I was brought up in the '50s, when there was only one radio station really - BBC Radio - so you could hear everything, from Beethoven's Fifth to music hall to the Beatles.
