"Englishman in New York" is a song by English artist Sting, from his 1987 album .Nothing Like the Sun. The "Englishman" in question is the famous eccentric and gay icon Quentin Crisp. Sting wrote the song not long after Crisp moved from London to an apartment in the Bowery in Manhattan. Crisp had remarked jokingly to the musician "that he looked forward to receiving his naturalization papers so that he could commit a crime and not be deported. Branford Marsalis played soprano saxophone on the track and Manu Katche the percussion.

Introduce yourself

Hi! I'm Ana, your English teacher.

I think music is a very importan part of our lives. I sing all the time. Maybe you have seen me huming in the School corridors! Music for me is a companion, a friend, a reliefe, a means of expression. I think the person who sings, lives twice (althoug the one who reads, lives 100 lives!).
I like all types of music, although I usually listen to music from the 1980s and 1990s, as those were the years when I fell in love with that art.

I love Triana, Green Day, Michael Jackson and Ismael Serrano, among others. I think Queen deserves a separate consideration. As you can see, my musical tastes are quite eclectic. What about yours?
