Also Sting live album Fragile was recorded on that tragic day. In the documentary that goes with the cd you can see they did a meeting to discuss if they do the show or cancel it because of what happened. Sting losed a dear friend in the twin towers attack.

If you can call something favorite out of a tragedy this one's mine. Around that time Hiatt was on tour with Sonny Landreth and he finished every concert with this one. I haven't had such a chill at any concert. Not even with MKs. The song wasn't released until just a few years ago. Like a "Long Highway" kind of thing.
