btw, "Spread a little happiness" doesn't count as he hadn't left the Police then.
Also, was in severe danger of voting that one, but for Morrissey.

That one being "Freefree set them free"
Briefly, we all thought "oh, solo Sting might not be so bad after all"

well by that logic you'd also have to discount Phil Collins, David Byrne, Daryl Hall, Mick Jagger etc

Phil Collins over Ice Cube, because "In The Air Tonight" was his career high point.

xposts well, I guess that would a slightly different poll, the "band split up, here's the songs I would rather do"
Any case up, that "Spread" sting song was a one-off whereas the ones on NickB's list were all 'as they wanted to be'

Only one other vote for David Byrne? Sad.

You're obviously an astute and refined observer of the audio arts -- any insight on how Lou Gramm's plodding effort got so many votes?

no "Red Guitar" by David Sylvian.. that's the one for me.
