We'll Be Together, CD
'We'll Be Together' appears on Sting's 1987 album, 'Nothing Like The Sun'. It had the honour of being Sting's first CD single in the UK where it reached the #41 spot - and for added collectibility it was also a 3" CD instead of the standard 5" - but the single fared much better in the US where it reached the #7 spot, spending 12 weeks on the chart there. A fallacy has developed that Sting doesn't care for this song. That is obviously wrong, the song was played throughout the 1987 tour and was a regular in the set list throughout the 'Brand New Day' tour. Originally the song was written for a commercial for a Japanese beer called Kirin, and the single was accompanied by an excellent video which also featured Trudie. A variety of remixes of the song exist 'Original', 'Instrumental', 'Extended'. Interestingly, the track was originally recorded with Eric Clapton on guitar but this version of the song features Brian Loren on guitar. When the track was included on 1994's 'Fields of Gold' hits compilation, Sting decided to include the version featuring Clapton.
