In your own words: I have been very fortunate to meet Sting twice now, both in Boston and then in NYC before the premiere of The Last Ship. It was a bit surreal when I had the chance to directly tell him the impact his music has had on my life. I will never forget how kind he was and how he genuinely appreciated my sentiment. Sting's music has helped me through many difficult and challenging times of my life, most notably the album 'The Soul Cages' after the loss of my mom at an early age. To me, 'Fragile' remains one of the most beautiful songs ever written by any artist. I tear up every time he plays that song at his concerts. It's amazingly beautiful!
