Query: A few gems in an otherwise average Sting album

Thousand Years, Desert Rose, After the Rain has Fallen, Brand New Day. Those are the songs worth getting this album for, especially Desert Rose... but you know that one will end up on a collection someday, and maybe Thousand Years too-- the rest of the album is a combination of yawns and grimaces (Fill Her Up is worth learning to program the CD player to skip). This album doesn't seem significantly different to me in this respect from Mercury Falling-- though certainly its outlook on life is sunnier-- but if I wanted great sting I'd go for the hits on Fields of Gold or the more consistent depth of Soul Cages. This one for the devoted Sting fan willing to dig sift through the average songs (well, Ok, even average Sting is better than most music out there) to make sure they don't miss the gems.
