"I've carved this little niche for myself in playing the
bass and singing. In many ways, as a teenager, that was a
strategy. I was a guitarist, and I realized I wasn't going
to be the greatest guitarist in the world. But if I could
create a unique little niche - playing bass and singing -
I'd have a better chance."
Sting
