Sting wasn’t always a solo artist. He started his career with a band named The Police – you probably know them. He’s not famous solely for his singing abilities, either. Sting is also famous for his songwriting. He’s written many of his own songs during his solo career and his time with The Police. These days, he spends more time on his charitable work, but he’s still famous for writing his hit songs throughout his career.
