Sting... or rather Mr."Sinnerman"

As I was listening to the end credits music of her new documentary, my mind was blown. "What Happened, Miss Simone?" has "Sinnerman" closing it out. It felt SO familiar, even when I knew I hadn't heard it before. However, realizations flamed on bright as his hair (in that era) soon enough.

Seriously... mind blown! I sang along (mentally and quickly) to "Sinnerman" with the lyrics from "Roxanne" and it just wouldn't stop. It's practically a twin THROUGHOUT, not just a brief section. Its only difference is tempo.

Don't folks go to court over things like this?

Yes they do. Ask Robin Thicke and Pharrell.

Ask the Rolling Stones.

All day long.
