Sittin' On The Dock Of The Bay | Playing For Change

"Look like nothing's gonna change
Everything still remains the same"

Just love this song I listened, once more, one hour ago .
In my childhood I used to hear the original and unforgettable Otis Redding version. This time I choose the great cover of Playing For Change and the voices and soul of Roger Ridley​ and Grandpa Elliott.
Looking at the lyrics of the song and the name of this wonderful movement ( Playng For Change) you may think about contradiction... nonsense...Well, I don't know... But for sure, sometimes , extremes meet .  And when it happens can be more than funny.

Manuel Queiró (b.1995)

Sting: How I started writing songs again

"I think it's appropriate to say the obvious that there's a symbiotic and intrinsic link between storytelling and community, between community and art, between community and science and technology, between community and economics. It's my belief that abstract economic theory that denies the needs of community or denies the contribution that community makes to economy is shortsighted, cruel and untenable.
The fact is, whether you're a rock star or whether you're a welder in a shipyard, or a tribesman in the upper Amazon, or the queen of England, at the end of the day, we're all in the same boat."

Sting’s early life was dominated by a shipyard—and he dreamed of nothing more than escaping the industrial drudgery. But after a nasty bout of writer’s block that stretched on for years, Sting found himself channeling the stories of the shipyard workers he knew in his youth for song material. In a lyrical, confessional talk, Sting treats us to songs from his upcoming musical, and to an encore of “Message in a Bottle.”
